An old interview discussed the friendship between the Pirates of the Caribbean actor and Downey.

When the Iron Man actor and his wife came to his house for dinner, Depp recalled, “He came over one evening for dinner, he and his wife came for dinner, and my son was just like—he couldn’t believe he was sitting next to Iron Man. And so I saw [Depp’s Pirates of the Caribbean character Captain Jack Sparrow] leave my son’s eyes, and Iron Man was the ticket.”
The Iron Man star, who has won an Oscar for his role as Strauss in Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer, thanked the director, “I needed this film more than it needed me, and Chris [Nolan] knew it.” He also thanked the producer Emma Thompson and the “best cast and crew.”
