Johnny Depp certainly took his Cannes 2023 appearance in stride, but fans can’t stop celebrating his “return” and not just in the movie, “Jeanne du Barry.” Meanwhile, Depp felt, “I mean, you have to go to come back. I’m not going anywhere…”
Johnny Depp Has A “Phoenix’ Moment At Cannes

Depp last attended Cannes in 2011, when he was the star of “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides” and Amber Heard wasn’t even in the picture yet. This is also Depp’s first major appearance in Hollywood since his highly publicized trial that divided his fans into Depp vs. Heard and turned him into persona non grata for the film. Returning to Cannes for the world premiere of “Jeanne du Barry,” directed by and co-starring French actress and filmmaker Maïwenn, the film opened this year’s Cannes Film Festival in early May.
Like a feature in Authentic Hollywood, what surprised Depp was the 12-year gap. However, when you have allegations of abuse against you, Hollywood drops you faster than a hot potato.
However, the way Depp received a standing ovation after the release of “Jeanne du Barry” and later, how social media users flooded Twitter and Instagram with celebratory messages proves Hollywood is more than happy to welcome a fallen hero with open arms.
For many, Depp vs. Heard became more personal than just a case, and his reappearance seemed like a vindication of their position.
Amber Heard: “Tell the world, Johnny, tell them, ‘Johnny Depp, I’m a man, I’m also a victim of domestic violence’. And see how many people believe or side with you.”

Moon Over Johnny Depp Fans, ‘Rotten Teeth’ & All

Reviews of “Jeanne du Barry” seem quite positive. It may not be Oscar potential, but it works well as Depp’s comeback film, even though he claims he doesn’t really “need” Hollywood anymore. That said, he “needs” a dentist!
Depp is currently quite into his music world and was spotted performing at The Royal Albert Hall during a tribute concert for legendary guitarist Jeff Beck, a close friend of Depp’s.

Meanwhile, “Jeanne du Barry” focuses on King Louis XV (Depp) and his mistress, Madame du Barry (Maïwenn), and their rather scandalous love affair at the French court. While most of his acting fans appreciate his role as the king of France, fans of the actor don’t understand why he doesn’t go to the dentist, with comments like:
“Why do I have to see a close-up of Johnny Depp’s teeth against my will?”
“It’s really bad. Years of smoking and drugs will do that to teeth. I never saw the appeal in him, to begin with. He always seemed like someone who smelled but not in a good way.”
“omg no, I think she’s cute like a cabbage patch doll; johnny depp looks like someone grabbed his teeth and painted them black.”
Another dismissive fan decided to show some pictures too:

Depp also commented on the exact same thing, standing with his imperfect teeth.

Meanwhile, photographers can become Photoshop dentists!
Not Everyone Is a Depp Fan, Though!
MEGA
While most of the world seems to support Depp, there are many who have not forgiven or forgotten the “abuser” tag and left comments with strong words:
“Honestly, I’m ashamed how a man who did what he did to some women and was aggressive was elevated. I don’t understand this industry and the society that supports it and its abuse! Shy!”
“I am a survivor of sexual violence. I work in this industry. I run @hiresurvivorshollywood to help fellow survivors who have experienced retaliation for surviving male abuse like the one you posted a picture of. I will unfollow you. And I announced it, like an airport, so that other people can read it and understand how dangerous it is to continue to support and abuse the platform.”
To each their own in Depp v. Heard.
