Johnny Depp is a man of his word.
The Oscar-nominated star gave 12-year-old Jack Taylor a present he will never forget when sent the boy a fedora he wore while filming Public Enemies in Jack's Wisconsin hometown. Jack fell in love with the hat when he spotted Johnny on set in April -- so much so that he asked the actor if he could have it.
Johnny said he could once filming wrapped, and lo and behold, sent the fedora Jack's way last week, The Northwestern reports.
And he's not the only one who got a present. Making sure none of Jack's four siblings felt slighted, the 45-year-old sent them gear from his 2005 hit Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Attached was a personal note telling the kids to enjoy the gifts.
For his part, Jack is currently penning a thank-you note for Johnny.
