Johnny Depp made a surprise appearance as Ebenezer Scrooge at Comic-Con International in San Diego. Depp, dressed in an overcoat and top hat, scolded attendees and called them “very, very strange people” before shuffling back inside a faux snow-lined storefront marked with a “Scrooge and Marley” sign.
