Despite deciding to follow in her father's famous footsteps, Johnny Depp's daughter Lily-Rose has claimed one of his best-loved on-screen roles actually left her 'traumatised' as a child.
Speaking to press this week, the actress reflected on what it was like to see her dad on the big screen time and time again, and revealed which film unnerved her throughout her youth.
As we say, Lily-Rose Depp has made a name for herself in her own right in recent years - as opposed to riding her Hollywood Hall of Fame father's coattails.

Following minor roles in the likes of period dramas The Dancer and The King - both of which she filmed while enjoying a modelling career on the side - last year saw her bag a lead role in the HBO drama series The Idol.
Not only did the stint see her working alongside huge-name stars like The Weeknd (real name Abel Tesfaye), Troye Sivan, Hank Azaria, and Dan Levy - but the soundtrack also saw her own single 'One of the Girls' feature on the soundtrack.
Recently, however, Lily-Rose - whose mother is French singer Vanessa Paradis - has turned her attention to the horror industry, and has been touring alongside Nicholas Hoult to promote her latest project, Nosferatu.
A gothic-horror phase? Like father, like daughter, we guess...

After all, her dad does have his own credits in the likes of Sleepy Hollow, The Corpse Bride, and Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street.
As we say, however, watching her father appear in ceaseless chillers throughout the duration of her childhood wasn't always something Lily-Rose boasted.
In fact, she still has dreaded memories of one particular role her father had - a fear that she claims she's carried through into her adult years.

We are, of course, talking about the 1990 gothic-comedy Edward Scissorhands, in which Johnny, now 61, played the titular character.
Despite being considered a cult classic nowadays, the Tim Burton flick could be considered somewhat unnverving.
After all, it tells the tale of an unfinished humanoid with scissor blades instead of hands.
Apparently, however, it wasn't her father's ghoulish appearance or potential to injure that left Johnny's daughter so terrified - but the way that Edward was treated by his on-screen associates.

Speaking to Harpers Bazaar this week, Lily-Rose, 25, admitted she hated the film growing up, adding: "I was traumatised by it.
"Not because I thought he was scary, but because everyone was being so mean to him and I got really upset."
Thankfully, the film can't have left Lily-Rose too scarred, being that she's trumping her father's horror card at the moment with her new vampire-based thriller.

Discussing the new adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula - which also stars Emma Corrin and Willem Dafoe - she described it as 'intimidating, daunting, and an incredible privilege' to be on such a set.
The Nosferatu actress went on to say: "It's not just scary, it's gross, it's revolting. It's palpably effective. It's the most technical set I've ever been on.
"It was almost like going to film school."
