“I love the story. I’ve been familiar with it since I was a little kid - it’s just one of those great American stories. And I think the character is very interesting. It’s a challenge to play someone who fills the role of the leading man, but to not play him as a standard hero.”

- Johnny Depp

“What you can do in stop motion is that there is purity to the emotion. The black and white also added to that for me. If the studio had said to me, ‘Well, you can do the movie but only in color,’ I wouldn’t have done it because it was that important to me to impart that emotional stripping away of things so that you get that simplicity and the strength of what it’s about.”

“It’s like, if a dog is trying to please the master. It breaks something, you scold it, and it goes to the corner. But as soon as you call it, it comes right back. It forgets everything. There’s this unconditional love. I thought Edward would be like that.”

- Johnny Depp

“This guy needed to be the ultimate optimist, dreamer, idealist. It was like being in a completely different suit or skin. It felt very good.”

- Johnny Depp
