Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest
In order to play Captain Jack Sparrow, Johnny Depp needed to get very deep into his drunken pirate character. Much of his work on the franchise was him improvising. Now, to Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest, there was that particular scene in which Sparrow taunts Davy Jones. We see Sparrow singing, “I got a jar of dirt!” If you look at both Keira Knightley and Orlando Bloom’s faces, they seem really bewildered. Well, the reason for that is Johnny Depp improvised this nonsense right there and then.

A Series of Unfortunate Events
Can you think of a better actor for Count Olaf than Jim Carrey? Us either! Anyway, when he acted in this film adapted from the books, something unplanned happened. While filming, Carrey was out of character asking the crew, “Wait! Let me do that one more time! Give me the light again. Quickly, while it’s fresh in my mind!” Even this bizarre off-script request for another take fit Olaf, the crazy narcissist in A Series of Unfortunate Events. If it works, it works!
