Depp: 'I can't compete with Spider-man'

Johnny Depp may wow millions of cinemagoers with his role in the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' trilogy, but his children still prefer Spider-Man.

The Hollywood hunk, who plays Captain Jack Sparrow in the swashbuckling franchise, has two children - Lily-Rose, seven; and Jack, five; - and they are more interested in box office rival Spider-Man than their dad's films.

He says: "I'd get in and say (in Jack Sparrow voice) 'All right kids, everything all right?' And they'd say, 'Dad, come on, I'm watching Spider-Man.'

"Oh man, Spider-Man. My boy has gone into that full-on superhero phase. But I refuse to wear the tights."
