'Jeanne du Barry' serves as Depp's first major role since his defamation trial concluded in June 2022.
CANNES, France – Johnny Depp seemed back in full celebrity mode on Tuesday, May 16, signing autographs and taking pictures with fans before the premiere of the Cannes Film Festival’s opening film Fans in the French Riviera city were seen hoisting signs that read “Congrats,Johnny” and “We are sorry” with a heart.
Michael Douglas, accompanied by his wife, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and their daughter, did not stop to sign autographs as he made his way into the Grand Theatre Lumiere, where the 78-year-old actor was given an honourary Palme d’Or. “There are hundreds of film festivals all around the world, but there’s only one Cannes,” Douglas told the crowd. “And suddenly, 76 years old – I’m even older than the festival,” he quipped.
Critics highlighted the lush look of the film, which received funding from Saudi Arabia’s Red Sea Film Foundation as part of a total estimated budget of $22.4 million – but said it lacked a pulse. Depp was handed a near-total victory by a US jury in his defamation fight with former wife and actor Amber Heard, with jurors awarding him more than $10 million in damages.
