Johnny Depp still believes in Santa Claus.
The 'Pirates of the Caribbean' star - who has two children, Lily-Rose, eight, and five-year-old Jack, with girlfriend Vanessa Paradis - is looking forward to Father Christmas coming down his chimney later this month.
He jokingly said: "I'll be hanging out with the kiddies and waiting for Santa Claus."
Although Johnny is looking forward to the festive period, he is not yet sure whether the family will spend Christmas in their English or French home.
The actor recently revealed he considered quitting Hollywood when his daughter fell ill.
Lily-Rose was hospitalised after reportedly contracting the E.coli bacterial infection earlier this year, and Johnny insists nothing matters more to him than his family.
He said: "I wasn't sure if I would be able to come back. My kids and my girl - nothing else matters in life. My kids are very grounded, not monster-like at all. We keep discipline under control."
