Acting is everything for him, but as for now on his focus is just his ailing daughter. Becoming a father, Johnny Depp is taking full responsibility to his family and that's why he decided to put the brake on his acting career until daughter Lily Rose is well again.

The actor had been working on the drama thriller "Sweeney Todd" in Britain before seven-year-old Lily was admitted to a London hospital two weeks ago. The unfortunate, sadly, has caused the production of the film put on hold until Lily makes a full recovery.

"He does not want to come back until Lily-Rose gets the all-clear. The plan is to re-employ everybody when she is better," a source told The Sun.

Editors' Pick

Details on Depp's daughter are being kept under wrap. He and his partner Vanessa Paradis have been at her bedside ever since. "Sweeney Todd" is a musical macabre version of the tale of a murdering barber and is slated to be released in late 2007.
