Johnny Depp appears to be serious about returning to making big-budget films in Hollywood. The actor attended the Cannes Film Festival to see the premiere of “Jeanne du Barry,” in which he plays King Louis XV.
Deep was in the eye of the storm for the lawsuit against Amberd Heard a year ago, and his return to work seemed far away, but he appears to want to return to the top of the marquees.
“When you hit rock bottom, you hit rock bottom, you hit rock bottom, you hit rock bottom, and then you find the basement all the way to the bottom,” Depp told The Associated Press.
Outside the Cannes premiere of “Jeanne du Barry,” fans sought autographs and “Viva Johnny!” signs. The reaction on social media was more tense. The hashtag #CannesYouNot was used by Heard’s supporters to argue that Cannes, which has been chastised for welcoming men accused of misconduct, should not have invited Depp.

“Never dull, but unpleasant, strange years.” Escapades. “There have been rumors and accusations,” Depp said. “I had read too much about Fatty Arbuckle, but I didn’t see any (Buster) Keaton coming at me to save my ass.”
