Since he was removed from the Fantastic Beasts saga, replaced by Mads Mikkelsen in the third installment, he has not returned to star in a big blockbuster, and it&#8217;s all because of the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/amber-heard-madrid-trial-johnny-depp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">trial against Amber Heard<\/a> that, despite winning, affected him negatively in the general opinion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, it seems that the balance has shifted back in his favor, and <strong>Johnny Depp has been the main protagonist of the opening film of the <a href=\"https:\/\/festival-de-cannes-official.en.softonic.com\/android\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Cannes Film Festival<\/a><\/strong>. Held in the French city, this is the most important European film festival, and this time it has opened with the film Jeanne du Barry, in which Depp plays the very king of France Louis XV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed-Youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"JEANNE DU BARRY\u239cTrailer (EN subtitles)\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MrDarfGICRI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Johnny Depp returns to seven-minute standing ovation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the opening ceremony, the film received a unique reception. Jeanne du Barry got seven full minutes of applause and <strong>the critics gave Johnny Depp a standing ovation<\/strong>. Undoubtedly, this is a great comeback for the actor at 59 years of age. Although he had to &#8220;flee&#8221; to France to continue making films, it seems that the decision will positively affect his career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Ma\u00efwenn, the director of Jeanne du Barry<\/strong>, is already well known in Cannes, both for her work as a director and screenwriter and also for her career as an actress, appearing in films such as The Fifth Element and Haute Tension. In fact, in Jeanne du Barry she also plays Madame du Barry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/05\/johnny-depp-800x450-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-230358\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The film tells the story of Jeanne, a young working class girl hungry for culture and pleasure, who uses her intelligence and charm to climb the rungs of the social ladder one by one. Soon, Jeanne becomes the favorite of King Louis XV who, unaware of her status as a courtesan, recovers through her his appetite for life. They fall madly in love and, against all decorum and etiquette, Jeanne moves to Versailles, where her arrival scandalizes the court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The chemistry between Ma\u00efwenn and Johnny Depp has been applauded by Cannes, and although not officially participating in Cannes, it has become the sensation of the festival. There is no doubt that the Edward Scissorhands actor is back, and may soon be approaching one of his finest hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Some of the links added in the article are part of affiliate campaigns and may represent benefits for Softonic.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Johnny Depp returns to a seven-minute ovation at the Cannes Film Festival, where he debuted with the film Jeane du Barry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9257,"featured_media":230355,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","wpcf-pageviews":1},"categories":[1015],"tags":[],"usertag":[],"vertical":[],"content-category":[],"class_list":["post-230352","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/230352","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9257"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=230352"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/230352\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":320260,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/230352\/revisions\/320260"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/230355"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=230352"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=230352"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=230352"},{"taxonomy":"usertag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/usertag?post=230352"},{"taxonomy":"vertical","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vertical?post=230352"},{"taxonomy":"content-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/content-category?post=230352"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
