Johnny Depp would "rather swallow a bag of hair" than dance.

The Hollywood actor has appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show alongside his Dark Shadows co-stars Michelle Pfeiffer and Chlo Moretz.

When discussing the art of dance, Johnny made no secret of his disdain for expressing himself through movement.

"I fear it more than anything in the world. Doing a film, when it's choreographed and you're a character, it's alright. But in life, I'd rather swallow a bag of hair," he deadpanned to the talk show host.

Chlo - who plays rebellious teenager Carolyn Stoddard in the movie - laughed at Johnny's comments. When asked what she thought of her veteran co-star, the 15-year-old actress gushed about the opportunity to work alongside him.

"Yeah, my friends are actually really jealous. When I told them I was doing a movie with Johnny, they were like, 'Oh my God, he's like so cute!' That's crazy!' I was like 'Yeah, he's pretty cool!'" she smiled. "When I first met him, I was like, 'Oh my God, I'm meeting Johnny Depp,' and I was wearing some sweatpants or something, and I shook his hand and I was like, 'I really like your necklaces.'

"I don't know why I said that."

Chlo also revealed she was "so excited" to work alongside Michelle. The 54-year-old actress is famed for her portrayal of Catwoman in Batman Returns and has joked about still owning certain parts of her sexy outfit.

"I don't [still have the catsuit]. I wish I did. It was an uncomfortable suit, I never wanted to see it again. I foolishly didn't keep it - but I do have the whip," she smiled, before Johnny quipped: "I have the suit."
