Who's on The Graham Norton Show tonight?
Johnny Depp
Born John Christopher Depp II on June 9, 1963, Johnny Depp is a 54-year-old American actor, producer, and musician.
The dad-of-two was born in Kentucky but grew up in Florida and, after moving to Hollywood, shot to fame on the 1980s TV series 21 Jump Street.
Throughout his career Johnny has taken on "larger-than-life" roles, starting with a supporting role in Oliver Stone's Vietnam War film Platoon in 1986, then playing the title role in Edward Scissorhands (1990).
He later found box office success in fantasy adventure films including Sleepy Hollow (1999), Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005) and Alice in Wonderland (2010).
Other well know films he's been in include Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (1998), Blow (2001) and Finding Neverland (2004).
But it is probably playing Captain Jack Sparrow in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise (2003 to present) that he is now best-known for.
Last year he went through a messy divorce with second wife Amber Heard after a two-year marriage, which left his wallet £5.5m lighter.
In new all-star mystery movie Murder On The Orient Express he plays Samuel Ratchett, taking over the role from Richard Widmark in the 1974 film.
Michelle Pfeiffer
Michelle, 59, was born April 29, 1958 and is an American actress, singer, and producer.
She kicked off her film career with a leading role in Grease 2 (1982), before receiving international success in 1983 when she starred in mobfilm Scarface.
She is best known for setting pulses racing in a skintight catsuit when she played Catwoman in Batman Returns in 1992.
Other movies she's known for include What Lies Beneath, Hairpray, The Witches Of Eastwick and Stardust.
In new all-star mystery movie Murder On The Orient Express she plays Mrs Hubbard, a role played by Lauren Bacall in the 1974 original.

Kenneth Branagh is an Olivier, Emmy and BAFTA Award winning actor and director of stage and screen.
Born in Belfast in December 1960, his family moved to Reading in England to escape the Troubles when Kenneth was nine, and he acquired Received Pronunciation at school to avoid bullying.
Known for his Shakespeare roles, Kenneth went on to make a wide range of films and TV, including Disney reboots, Scandi crime drama remakes, Marvel blockbusters and WW2 epics.
As of 2015, the 56-year-old is also the president of RADA, taking over the position from Richard Attenborough.
He was knighted in 2012 for his services to drama and the community in Northern Ireland, shortly after appearing in the Olympics Opening Ceremony.
Kenneth directed Murder On The Orient Express as well as starring in it as Hercule Poirot - following on from Albert Finney and David Suchet - and he wore a bizarre moustache for the part.
Dame Judi Dench
Judith Olivia ";Judi" Dench was born in Heworth, York on December 9, 1934, which makes her 82 years old.
Aspiring actress Judi trained at the Central School of Speech and Dram and made her first professional stage appearance at the Royal Court Theatre, Liverpool in Hamlet in 1957.

Judi has also been nominated for six Oscars, and won one of these as Best Supporting Actress for Shakespeare in Love in 1998.
The star was forced to comment on the"horrifying" 2017 Harvey Weinstein sex abuse scandal because of her relationship with the producer - which led her to have "JD loves HW" tattooed on her bum.
In Murder On The Orient Express, she plays Princess Dragomiroff, previously played by Wendy Hiller in 1974.
St Vincent
St Vincent is a 35-year-old American musician who will chat and perform tonight.

After belonging to various groups like The Polyphonic Spree, Surfjan Steven's touring band and The Skull F***ers, she recorded her first EP in 2006 and started performing as St Vincent.
Her first album caused a stir among critics, and she was compared to Kate Bush and David Bowie.
Over her career music fans have been drawn to her eclectic mix of genres and her unusual lyrics, which St Vincent says have the quality of "panic attacks".
