Johnny Depp
Depp's first film role was in the horror film "A Nightmare on Elm Street" (1984), in which he played the boyfriend of heroine Nancy Thompson (Heather Langenkamp) and one of Freddy Krueger's victims. After a starring role in the comedy "Private Resort" (1985), Depp was cast in the lead role of the skating drama "Thrashin'" (1986) by the film's director, but the decision was later overridden by its producer. Instead, Depp appeared in a minor supporting role as a Vietnamese-speaking private in Oliver Stone's Vietnam War drama "Platoon" (1986).
