The collaboration between Johnny Depp and the French fashion brand Dior continues to surprise the international media and public.
Previously, when Johnny Depp's career was in turmoil due to his ex-wife, actress Amber Heard, accusing him of domestic violence, Dior Sauvage men's perfume was the only brand that did not cancel its advertising contract with Depp. This move even caused the brand to face criticism for supporting an artist with a "stained" personal life.
After persistently pursuing litigation against Amber Heard and winning, Johnny Depp's name and career have gradually been restored. Now, he continues to sign a contract to take on the role of advertising face for Dior Sauvage men's perfume line.

The new deal is worth up to $20 million. This is considered the largest perfume advertising contract ever signed for a male celebrity. Johnny Depp has been the face of Dior Sauvage men's fragrance since 2015. The new contract will extend Depp's time in this role for another 3 years.
Previously, the most expensive perfume advertising contracts ever signed with male stars include actor Robert Pattinson's $12 million contract to promote Dior Homme men's perfume; actor Brad Pitt's $7 million contract to promote Chanel No 5 women's perfume.
In a financial report in January this year, billionaire Bernard Arnault - CEO of LVMH Group (owner of the Dior brand) commented that the Dior Sauvage perfume line has achieved significant success thanks to the effect that Johnny Depp created on the public.

In just a few days, the new film starring Johnny Depp - Jeanne Du Barry will premiere at the Cannes Film Festival. This choice by the Cannes Film Festival organizers has attracted quite a bit of attention.
Regarding the controversial decision, Cannes Film Festival director Thierry Fremaux said: "I don't see the decision to open the festival with Jeanne Du Barry as a controversial decision. If Johnny Depp was banned from the film industry, things would be different, but clearly, he has no problem at all.
All we know is that the legal system did its job and he won the case. And this movie isn't about Johnny Depp."
Johnny Depp has not appeared in any major film projects since 2018. His return in the film Jeanne Du Barry , which will premiere in Cannes, is highly anticipated by critics and fans of the actor.

Johnny Depp is now also known as a painter. In July 2022, Depp collaborated with an art exhibition in the UK to organize a small-scale sale of his work. The event was held online, but the level of interest from collectors in Depp's work was huge. After the auction, Johnny Depp earned 3.6 million USD.
During his lawsuit against his ex-wife, Johnny Depp always carried a notebook with him. Depp sat in the courtroom and often focused on... drawing, he kept his sketches in this notebook.
This somewhat strange move by Depp attracted a lot of attention. Initially, this was thought to be a psychological measure for Johnny Depp to stay calm while pursuing the lawsuit. No one could have expected that Johnny Depp was about to officially become... an artist.
In addition to painting and acting, Johnny Depp continues to maintain his love for music. Immediately after stepping out of the lawsuit, he returned to performing music and has plans to release new music products.
