Mexico City.- After his resounding success at the Cannes Film Festival with the film Jeanne Du Barry, Johnny Depp commented that since he was expelled from the most important franchises in Hollywood, such as Pirates of the Caribbean, he realized that he did not need this industry.
“I don’t think about Hollywood, I don’t care about Hollywood, I don’t need Hollywood,” the actor said after being asked if he felt there was a boycott against him after ex-wife Amber Heard accused him of domestic violence.
The Charlie and the Chocolate Factory star said he came to this conclusion after he was fired from Hollywood’s top-grossing movies without proof of the allegations.
“When they ask you to stop a movie because there are a bunch of vowels and consonants in the air, you wonder,” he added.
Johnny Depp shared that he is going through a strange stage where he finally shows himself as he really is and is not ashamed.
The actor also stopped to answer questions about his private life and commented that everything that has been said about him in recent years is fiction.
“In the last five, six years, most of what they’ve read is horribly written fiction,” he said, referring to the trial he had with Amber Heard where he was called a wife-beater.
At the opening of the Cannes Film Festival, a group of people criticized the festival for putting a red carpet for a woman abuser referring to Depp, the actor said that there is someone behind the protesters.
“Now a lot of things are launched from computers, anonymously. I think people should reflect a little and ask themselves what it is really about,” he concluded.
