He may have been People‘s Sexiest Man Alive, but on-screen Johnny Depp seems anything but. Making a career out of garish makeup, angora cardigans and gold teeth, it’s as the murderous barber of Fleet Street in Sweeney Todd that Depp recently earned his third Oscar nomination.

As his sixth collaboration with director Tim Burton, the two have done everything from battle a headless horseman to oversee Oompa-Loompas. Now, MM looks back at this dynamic duo’s shared filmography.
