Johnny Depp almost burst into tears after receiving an amazing 7-minute standing ovation at the Cannes Film Festival

Johnny Deep might soon be a the top of the movie industry again. This week, the controversial actor attended the Cannes Film Festival to present his new movie, Jeanne du Barry and his performance is currently receiving raving reviews.

After his triumphal arrival on the red carpet, Depp proceeded to attend the screening of the film. However, he did not expect that he would receive a 7-minute standing ovation from the public so he got emotional and almost burst into tears. He was clearly very grateful for the heartwarming reaction from the attendees.

During the last few years, his career took a huge dive due to Amber Heard’s declarations against him. Her now ex-wife accused him of domestic violence and both of them took the matter to different courts in the United States and the United Kingdom. Since then, both starts have constantly been surrounded by controversies.

Despite this, Jeanne du Barry might be the turning point in Depp’s career as the positive reception to his performance could mean that Hollywood and the general public are ready to welcome him again. Only time will tell what the future holds for Johnny Depp but it can be said that he is off to a good start.
