After a highly publicized legal bаttle with his ex-wife, Amber Heard, iconic Hollywood actor Johnny Depp is back in the spotlight with his upcoming film, Jeanne du Barry, directed by Mаïwenn and set to release in 2023.

The legal proceedings between Depp and Heard garnered immense media attention, with fans rallying behind the Pirates of the Caribbean star. Dealing with domestic viоlence allegations from both sides, Depp emerged victorious in the defamation trial, receiving $15 million in damages. The fallout from the case had a significant impact on Depp’s career. He was notably removed from the cast of the Harry Potter spinoff film, Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore, before its release in 2022.

However, following the trial, it was announced that Depp would portray King Louis XV in Jeanne du Barry, a historical drаmа depicting the life of Jeanne Bécu. The film premiered at the Cannes Film Festival, receiving mixed reviews from critics. Nevertheless, Depp’s return to the spotlight was met with a seven-minute standing ovation, sparking discussions about his Hollywood “comeback.”

During the festival, Depp’s daughter, Lily-Rose Depp, an actress in her own right, expressed her heartfelt support for her father. In an interview with ET Canada, she expressed her happiness and excitement for his success, emphasizing that both of them were involved in projects they were proud of. Lily-Rose herself stars in the controversial HBO series, The Idol.

Lily-Rose maintained a neutral stance throughout her father’s legal bаttle with Heard, asserting her right to privacy and stating that she was not there to answer for anyone. Although her father’s film received a warm reception at Cannes, The Idol, in which Lily-Rose stars alongside Grammy-winner The Weeknd, faced criticism for its sexuаl content and performances. Despite the polarizing reviews, the show also received a standing ovation at its Cannes premiere, echoing the positive response to Depp’s comeback film.

The supportive bond between Johnny Depp and his daughter Lily-Rose shines through, as they navigate their respective projects amidst controversy and acclaim. Their presence at Cannes highlights their shared pride and joy in pursuing their artistic endeavors.
