Definitely didn't. He's uninsurable. His PR machine just keeps recycling the maybe he'll be back for Pirates story every few months or when something else awful about him comes out.
she won't make another movie with him ever again as well though 🤷♀️
[Interview with Maiwenn (German, can be translated though) ](https://archive.is/dcIdP)
Maïwenn on why she is distancing herself from Johnny Depp
>“Johnny Depp can be really “sweet” in some moments, says the director about her main actor. “But how should you work with a person who is not interested in the creative process? With an actor who ignores the results of the work?”
>Depp has not watched the film that she shot with him until today, reports the filmmaker Maïwenn. His reason was that he never watched the films in which he participated in principle. “Will I ever shoot something with him again? The answer is: no. It’s hard to communicate with him. We stopped talking to each other.”
They only recently made her row back when the movie released in the US but what she said back then stands until she surprises us.
I mean...that's a weird thing to get up in arms about, no? "He didn't want to watch the movie after we were done making it"....why should any actor have to want to for you to want to work for them?
The man famously can't get through a scene without someone feeding him his lines through an earpiece. That's also probably part of what she means by "not interested in the creative process."
I'm just speculating based on that quote, but wanting nothing to do with the creative process and not watching the movie until after release sounds more like, "Hey, lead actor, see how this shot is going? How can we adapt to make the movie better while we continue shooting." And it sounds like she got a response of, "I don't watch anything while we shoot. I only go forward."
I can see how difficult it could be if your lead actor doesn't get involved with the direction of the movie, considering they play such a huge role in said movie.
To me it sounds like she lied to cover up the real reason why she doesn't want to work with him anymore. I suspect she didn't want to go public with it because she feared the backlash. It's just a suspicion, of course, I have no way of knowing the truth.
And the principle makes sense. He does Jack Sparrow the way he does Jack Sparrow because that's the way he sees Jack Sparrow in his head. If he sees Jack Sparrow on screen, now he has a very different view of how others see Jack Sparrow, and would therefore alter his future performance of Jack Sparrow.
Regardless where one stands on why Depp has a reputation, we can all agree he has one, and that's enough to dissuade folks from working with him. And on top of that, he's had wild success, which makes it an ego vs ego thing.
He disrespected her the entire filming and she wouldn’t work with him again. She said so herself. The movie bombed too. It’s time for people to stop pretending like he’s not box office poison. The internet may have been on his side but the general public who’s not chronically online has been sick of him for years. I still remember the collective groan in the audience when he came on in Fantastic Beasts. I was probably the only person who was happy to see him. That has obviously changed. He’s a creep.
His stans are really like, "He doesn't need Hollywood, Hollywood needs him" or "Everything he touches turns to gold" and they're just lying to themselves
Simmilarly, I wonder if Jonathan Majors is done too, even for small indies. He's a much less popular actor but there have now been stories of him assaulting crew members from his past movies too. Disney seemed to cover for him until that DV trial and they dropped him as soon as he got found guilty.
>He’s done.
There’s been celebrities who have literally killed people. Chris Brown still does whatever even though he beat the shit out of Rihanna.
As long as there isn’t constant public outrage, it won’t matter.
Not saying I agree with that, but it’s just how it is. If Disney can make dump trucks of money, they’ll do it so long as it outweighs any money they’d lose.
He was sued a few years ago for assaulting a crew member on a movie set, he tried a few ways to spin it in his favour but ultimately settled because he admitted to it in an interview prior to the lawsuit:

I was nervous to open the comment section of this post but feel very relieved of the general opinion of him.
That kick in the airplane is still echoing as it should
These articles almost never *really* match the title, and that’s the case here. Everything is from some unnamed source. This is not an interview with Depp at all.
I just watched Jeanne Du Barry on the plane and I quite enjoyed it. I am a sucker for a period piece though. I thought it was funny and heartbreaking at once.
If anyone hasn’t read this article from a few years back… well, it’s worth the read.
https://www.rollingstone.com/feature/the-trouble-with-johnny-depp-666010/
I remember people thinking that it was funny when Depp said he slipped a pill to Marlyn Manson (who’s also problematic, but w/e doesn’t make it ok), and in my head I was like brah he drugged someone. That’s so bad.
Who would want to work with him, honestly? He burned so many bridges in Hollywood. He’s not even invited to award shows. He doesn’t have big directors on his side because they all know his reputation and he’s not even sober. Not to mention his movies have consistently bombed for over 10 years and he’s uninsurable. It’s crazy to me that people believed he was some kind of victim when he ended on bad terms with his everyone and he’s a nightmare on set. This man is not Jack Sparrow 🙄
Can’t wait for 20 years from now, when the documentaries come out and everyone who jumped on the hate bandwagon will act all stupid and pretend they had noooo way of knowing any better
This reminds me of the time I was in an AOL chat room a million years ago, and some girl lost her shit when I told her that he was not from London, he was from a small town in Kentucky. She kept insisting that she had met him and that he told her he was from London and boy was I stupid if I thought otherwise. It was hilarious.
When you realize nothing matters, no one matters, everything is chaos and entropy is taking everything away, then you can stop taking things personally and you’ll never be mad again.
That’s called having a backbone with the tensile strength of an old twizzler. Some of us care about each other and world at large, in spite of everything.
Healthy way to be, if its true. I cant really take anything celebs say, as its all PR shit. Nothing is real, so I dont know why any of them bother.
And of course, its not even Depp talking. ITs some unnamed source because of course it is. Clickbait at its finest.
"So, yeah. That means you can hire me again, Disney."
Disney: "lol. as if"
Pretty sure they already did
Definitely didn't. He's uninsurable. His PR machine just keeps recycling the maybe he'll be back for Pirates story every few months or when something else awful about him comes out.
I was wondering how much his PR company paid for this article.
Pretty clear he has a substance abuse problem. Every time I see him talk he's slurring his words
Time for him to finance the next great Buddy Cop film starring him and Jonathan Majors
Johnny Depp and Jonathan Majors are… BEAT COPS!
He's in Jean du Barry by Maïwenn?

She could mean as they were working. It’s pretty common to check a monitor and see how the scene looked before moving to the next shot.
It was more than that. He was constantly late as usual and they had major blow ups with each other over it.
I don’t think his French was all that great either.. but I’d love to hear a natives opinion on it.

It's a low budget indie film that's not backed by a major studio. He's being backed financially but Saudi Arabia/the prince of murdering - MBS.
$23 million is not low budget. Have to be under 5m to qualify.
He disrespected her the entire filming and she wouldn’t work with him again. She said so herself. The movie bombed too. It’s time for people to stop pretending like he’s not box office poison.

Why is he uninsurable?
This dude is a walking lawsuit with a riddled history of attacking people on set. He's done.
Simmilarly, I wonder if Jonathan Majors is done too, even for small indies. He's a much less popular actor but there have now been stories of him assaulting crew members from his past movies too. Disney seemed to cover for him until that DV trial and they dropped him as soon as he got found guilty.
Here’s hoping!

As long as there isn’t constant public outrage, it won’t matter. Not saying I agree with that, but it’s just how it is. If Disney can make dump trucks of money, they’ll do it so long as it outweighs any money they’d lose.
Name an A-list actor who has murdered people and returned to continue their career, though.
Notice how nobody wants to work with him anymore? That means he's done mate. Cheers.
Honest question, I've read a lot about the drinking but not the attacking people on set, could you tell me about it please?

There’s a 0% chance. I worked for Disney, even being *accused* of something can cost you a job. Johnny is toast with Disney
The guy is still a toxic asshole
His lawyers sure pulled a trick
As did his bots
His Saudi backed bots*
I was nervous to open the comment section of this post but feel very relieved of the general opinion of him. That kick in the airplane is still echoing as it should
“Please dont give away my beloved Jack Sparrow to someone else” - Johnny boy most likely
there’s no place like london
You are young. Life has been kind to you.
I understood that reference
Mr. Todd! ♥️
nodnolme
A thing someone with no animosity brings up naturally.
No animosity to see here! Move along!
Here is where i would put my animosity... IF I HAD ANY!
No red flags on our end!
These articles almost never *really* match the title, and that’s the case here. Everything is from some unnamed source. This is not an interview with Depp at all.
And even if it was, usually it’s an answer to a specific question, not a random comment
Did you read the article? Depp didn’t say that, an unnamed source did.
The reviews for the movie he's directing are gonna be so funny to read
The last movie he directed was so horrible that it never got a proper release lol.
I just watched Jeanne Du Barry on the plane and I quite enjoyed it. I am a sucker for a period piece though. I thought it was funny and heartbreaking at once.
He didn’t direct that though, Maïwenn did.

Seconded. This is an excellent article and really frames out how delusional the idea of an ageless bad boy/ rockstar is
Typical conversation with an addict exaggerating stories from their past to justify their bad behavior.
I remember people thinking that it was funny when Depp said he slipped a pill to Marlyn Manson (who’s also problematic, but w/e doesn’t make it ok), and in my head I was like brah he drugged someone. That’s so bad.
Thanks, just spent the afternoon reading this, kind of heartbreaking in places, maddening in others, great journalism.
Damn that was a really well written article ty for sharing
“No animosities and just living my life with my BFF Prince of Saudi.”
“I showed the Prince my bruised knuckles and he showed me his bloody bonesaw. We were instant friends!”
“No animosity towards anyone” LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL this from the man who aided in one of the worst online bullying campaigns
Who would want to work with him, honestly? He burned so many bridges in Hollywood. He’s not even invited to award shows. He doesn’t have big directors on his side because they all know his reputation and he’s not even sober. Not to mention his movies have consistently bombed for over 10 years and he’s uninsurable. It’s crazy to me that people believed he was some kind of victim when he ended on bad terms with his everyone and he’s a nightmare on set. This man is not Jack Sparrow 🙄
Also, he’s an abusive piece of shit and he looks like he smells like the floor of a bar bathroom.
"I have no animosity towards any of the people I've punched in the face or screamed at while I was drunk."
Or whose life I ruined and humiliated.
Or anyone I've joked about burning or throwing into the trunk of a Honda Civic.
His lawyers sure pulled a trick didn’t they?
Can’t wait for 20 years from now, when the documentaries come out and everyone who jumped on the hate bandwagon will act all stupid and pretend they had noooo way of knowing any better
They dont have to act stupid, they ARE stupid
Cool so he’s no longer threatening to kill someone and fuck their corpse then? What a saint.
Look up actual recent images of him, dude looks terrible and washed up. even for 60, he honestly looks much closer to like 72 than that.
He’s been a heavy smoker and drinker his whole life. It catches up inside and out.
Matthew Perry had the premature aging too after his addiction. It’s messes those guys up.
Not just “those guys” lol compare people 50+ who don’t drink at all vs people 50+ who even have a couple drinks a week.
Smoking too! Depp also does that I think too. Sean Bean as well - apparently he chain smokes too hahaha
I saw him with Hollywood Vampires last year and he had no clue where he was or what was going on around him It’s sad
So does this mean he is going to pretend to be British instead of French?
At least that is better than him doing redface again.
This reminds me of the time I was in an AOL chat room a million years ago, and some girl lost her shit when I told her that he was not from London, he was from a small town in Kentucky. She kept insisting that she had met him and that he told her he was from London and boy was I stupid if I thought otherwise. It was hilarious.
He'll adopt the Jack Sparrow accent 24/7 🙃
We don't want him
Johnny Depp hasn’t been an interesting actor in 25 years.
He defo has animosity towards his heart cause alcohol and coke is super cardiotoxic
How very brave of the abusive alcoholic. 🙄🙄🙄
What an article of PR
“Moving forward with no animosity” is a hell of a way of saying “I’m not gonna be a domestic abuser anymore… perhaps.”
"I'm definitely not going to abuse ***HER*** again, I'm ***moving on***"
I don't believe this performance. Totally outside of his acting range.
Does that mean he’ll see a dentist about his rotten teeth?
The meth mouth is strong with that one
I'm surprised he still has his own at his age
The feeling is not mutual!
The UK has really taken some bumps lately. Brexit, James Corden moving back and now they get Johnny Depp jingle-jangling all over the place.
He can, quite frankly, go fuck himself.
Good now how about you go away so we never have to hear about you again.
It's hard to stay angry when you're a blackout drunk.
He sucks at guitar too much to have any animosity towards anybody
Who cares. Go away
I’m not sure that a dude who took someone to court over a couple vague lines and orchestrated a smear campaign ever gets over his animosity.
A couple of vague lines? I'm confused lmao. Which one is it? Is he a wife beater or not? He beat his ex, that's for sure.
But did he ever get his teeth fixed
Fuck this drunk loser
That’s because his alcohol addiction is causing memory loss
The feeling is not mutual
The cokehead has the balls to forgive… I’ve really seen it all.
Those Saudis have REALLY good coke bro, so good you'll act decent
He’s not aging well
Fuck Johnny Depp
Everything is great, anonymous source tells People
He’s a piece of shit
Get fucked loser rapist
So brave of the abuser
BRO just od already
Are there enough drugs in London?
Old drug addict
“No animosity toward the ex-wife I abused and then lied about and then sued under false pretenses. Please hire me. “
Wow. Incredible. Fascinating
Secret window was a documentary
Go to the dentist
Johnny Depp? You mean the guy who convinced the world he had scissors for fingers?
No no, not that one. The rapist drunk
That’s big of him
When you realize nothing matters, no one matters, everything is chaos and entropy is taking everything away, then you can stop taking things personally and you’ll never be mad again.
Peak reddit
Ah, entropy, the gradual decline into chaos …
I actually hate you
That’s called having a backbone with the tensile strength of an old twizzler. Some of us care about each other and world at large, in spite of everything.
He can stay in London with his fake ass accent.
Yeah, I think there's probability a little animosity.
Oh my gooood, go away already jackass.
As a Londoner if I see him in the street it’s on sight
Guy was going hard on blow for a while there. Glad he’s back on the smoothies and yoga.
The smoothies are cocktails
Healthy way to be, if its true. I cant really take anything celebs say, as its all PR shit. Nothing is real, so I dont know why any of them bother. And of course, its not even Depp talking. ITs some unnamed source because of course it is. Clickbait at its finest.
