Johnny 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."Meanwhile the Hollywood actor has fallen for the charms of Britain and its people.The American star - who filmed Sleepy Hollow, Charlie And The Chocolate Factory, and upcoming movie Sweeney Todd in the U.K. - reveals he has a passion for British history and its towns.He says, "I've always had a good thing with the Brits... It's the sense of humour..."I've always felt 100 per cent at home in Britain and in London. I'm also fascinated by the history. I've loved taking weird little sojourns down to Bath or Rye or Chichester, or just wandering around Canterbury."
