He came to the Deauville Festival and he did not disappoint.
Johnny Depp spoke for more than an hour of his career during an exciting meeting where it was believed to lose several fans on the verge of fainting as soon as the actor spoke a few words in French.
“I don't like the word fan.
I consider the people who enjoy my work to be my employers and the studios should too!
», He struck in front of an enthusiastic audience.
If Johnny Depp has, as expected, attracted a crowd of moviegoers, other nice surprises lit up this very sunny first weekend.
Everything for Johnny
Many have waited hours to catch a glimpse of Johnny Depp.
Alex, 29, had even made the look of the star.
“I like the idea of looking like him,” he told
20 Minutes
.
The lucky ones who were able to enter the room forgave the delay of nearly an hour of the actor so much of the latter was as funny as he was generous to speak in particular of Tim Burton and his hair in disarray.
"For our first meeting before
Silver-handed Edward, we drank so much coffee I chewed on my spoon!
Tom Cruise was then in the running for the role of Edward.
According to John Depp, he would undoubtedly have done it very well in another register but the case was turned upside down when he expressed the wish that the character end the film with a normal head and hands.
“He also returned to his character of Jack Sparrow in
Pirates of the Caribbean
.
“At first, the studio wanted to cut my role because the executives did not understand what I was doing or what I was saying.
One of the producers even asked me if Sparrow was crazy or gay.
“The actor answered her tit for tat that she should know that all of her characters are gay.
Today, Johnny Depp admitted to having tired of a Hollywood where he is not.
It was to a thunderous applause that he left the room jostling a bodyguard to give a selfie to a fan (sorry an "employer").
Oliver Stone, Dylan Penn and the others

JFK The Investigation
where he accuses the CIA of having ordered the murder of the former President of the United States.

Flag Day
, directed by his father Sean Penn, was beaming to receive the Rising Talent Award intended to encourage the career of a young Hollywood star.

The excellent
The Fracture of Catherine Corsini, takes the spectator in a crowded hospital after a demonstration of yellow vests.
