Isla Fisher Wanted to Kiss Johnny Depp

Johnny Depp has worked with several celebrities which meant that love scenes are not new for him anymore.

He was once associated with an animated feature Rango with Isla Fisher also voicing it. While the former voiced the titular character in the movie, the latter voiced his love interest, Beans, a good-hearted desert iguana.However, things were a bit different than other animated features as director, Gore Verbinski asked actors to act in their scenes in real life to enhance the overall animated segment. In an interview with JustJared, she shared,

“Although we were only voicing the characters, we were encouraged to act out scenes.”

Her character was supposed to kiss Depp’s character which is what they had to do in real life but the actress backed out as she was suffering from a bad cold.

“It came to the scene where my character kisses Johnny’s but I ducked out as I had a really bad cold and didn’t want him to catch it.”

However, she later regretted stating,

“Afterwards I was like, ‘What was I thinking? It’s Johnny Depp’. Maybe I should have just got the kiss and given him the germs.”

While she could only remorse for not giving the Pirates of the Caribbean actor much desperate smooch, it happened for a good cause. Though the actresses’ experience with Depp has been nothing but great, he has once found kissing a star uncomfortable.

While this experience was nothing but uncomfortable for him, it didn’t stop him from praising the young actress as he shared,

“It’s always awkward so you kind of just make light of it; she was a good sport and we just kid of did what we had to do, that’s the gig.”
