Johnny Depp has been revealed to be a distant relative of a famous slave from the 17th century.

The slave, Elizabeth Key, was the first to sue for her freedom in 1656 in Virginia, where some of Depp's ancestors have lived since the early 1600s, the Daily Star reported.

The 50-year-old actor has been found to be the eighth great grandson of the US freedom fighter.
