However, as his career progressed, he's relied more on stunt doubles for some of the more dangerous sequences. This is common practice for many actors, as the risk of injury during particularly dangerous stunts is high.
Here are some examples:
* "Pirates of the Caribbean": Depp is known for doing many of his own stunts in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies, like the sword fights and falls. He even did his own underwater scenes, although he did have a stunt double for some of the more dangerous water stunts.
* "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas": Depp was reportedly very hands-on during the making of this film, even driving the car himself during some of the more intense scenes.
* "Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street": Depp learned how to shave and use a straight razor for this role, performing some of the stunts himself.
Ultimately, it's not always clear-cut whether Depp has done his own stunts in every movie. There's a good chance he's used stunt doubles for some of the more dangerous scenes. But, he's definitely known for his willingness to push his limits and do many stunts himself.
