Johnny Depp is stepping back into the limelight. The actor made his highly publicized return to the Cannes Film Festival this week as his film, opened the 76th annual event. During a press conference on Wednesday, Depp remarked on what commentators have dubbed his «big-screen comeback» following the controversial defamation trial with his ex-wife, Amber Heard. «In regards to me and my life, the majority of what you’ve read is fantastically, horrifically written fiction,» Depp told reporters. «Did I feel a boycott by Hollywood? Well, you’d have to not have a pulse to feel at that point, 'None of this is happening, it’s just a weird joke or I have been asleep for 35 years.'

Peter Debruge Chief Film Critic They instructed her no one must turn their back to the king, but she did so anyway. They warned that she was not to look Louis XV directly in the eyes, lest others take it as “an invitation,” but she ignored Versailles’ advisers on this point as well, defiantly meeting the king’s gaze. Jeanne Bécu was not the type of woman to do as she was told. In this respect, divisive French actor-director Maïwenn can relate, casting herself as the courtesan-turned-comtess in “Jeanne du Barry,” a sensitive and surprisingly low-key portrait of the French monarch’s last mistress.

The Cannes Film Festival chief defended Johnny Depp's upcoming appearance as the actor's latest film "Jeanne du Barry" has been included in the opening night. The inclusion of his film with Maiwenn has been largely criticized following Depp's six-week trial involving his ex-wife Amber Heard. Depp accused Heard of defaming him in the 2018 Washington Post op-ed in which she referred to herself as a domestic abuse survivor.
