Johnny Depp is the star of films that utilise some of the most impressive special effects, but the actor admits he’s not a fan of new technology. Despite his leading role in the ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ franchise, Johnny says he’s wary of the importance placed on technology and media. “Sometimes I’d like to run away screaming from our technology-obsessed world, the invasive media, the madness of reality TV,” explains Johnny. “We’ve lost touch with the simple things of life. We’re losing our individuality.” Johnny has a better escape from modern life than most – his own private island. “The island might sound extravagant but I need somewhere I can breathe easily or just sit around and chat without someone taking my picture,” says the A-list star.
