After his noisy divorce with Amber Heard, Johnny Depp rarely acted in films, focused on being a movie director and lived quietly in England.

According to People on May 3, Johnny Depp’s life opened a new chapter, calmer than before. The source said that the actor always keeps himself busy but still lets his mind relax, prioritizes mental health care, looks forward to a good future, and no longer holds grudges against anyone.

Depp moved to London in 2023, feeling that the new city made him feel at home. “His life is now filled with painting and music. He also meets up with a few friends or spends time alone when not making movies,” the source added.

Johnny Depp is currently directing Modi – the second film project produced by the actor after The Brave (1997). The film tells the story of the life of Italian artist Amedeo Modiglian, set in Budapest, Hungary. He also often goes to Italy to film some movie scenes. According to the New York Post , Johnny Depp is considering an ancient castle built in the mid-12th century, about 2,000 m2, worth four million USD in Montalto Dora, Italy. The news agency said that actor Riccardo Scamarcio (who plays Modigilian in Modì) is a regular customer of the project, so he introduced this place to Depp.

Johnny Depp has just returned to the big screen with the movie Jeanne Du Barry, released in the US on May 2. The film marks the actor’s return after four years since his ex-wife’s divorce trial. When playing King Louis XV, he spoke entirely in French. Depp’s acquaintance revealed that the actor was “excited” about Jeanne Du Barry, seeing the project as “a good challenge” for him to use a foreign language in the film.

In addition to his activities, Johnny Depp’s current appearance has become a subject of media attention. On April 17, the 61-year-old actor attracted attention when attending the premiere of the movie Jeanne Du Barry in the UK. At the event, the artist appeared with a fit figure after losing weight, cut his hair short, and wore a suit from the fashion house Dior instead of his previous boho style. Daily Mail commented that Depp went through a complete change in middle age. He is currently the face of Dior’s Sauvage perfume line.

Regarding love, People ‘s source said Johnny Depp has no time for love. The actor focuses on his personal plan, leaving open many invitations to cooperate for future projects. “He is very open to everything, like ‘never say never’. If there is a role that Depp really likes, he will definitely consider it,” the source said.

After winning the lawsuit with Amber Heard in June 2022, Johnny Depp received $1 million in compensation from his ex-wife but donated it all to five charities. He left Hollywood and went on tour with his close friend Jeff Beck to promote album 18 – the music product they both co-produced. The actor moved to live in the countryside in Somerset County (England), after Beck passed away from meningitis. In an interview with Somerset Life magazine, Depp said: “The new place allows me to live true to myself. People here always welcome you like normal neighbors and don’t show off.”

And Amber Heard – 38 years old, Johnny Depp’s ex-wife – and her three-year-old daughter settled in Spain. According to IMDb, the beauty has no new projects after filming Aquaman 2 (2023). She limits appearances in front of the media, rarely updates social networks, and focuses on taking care of her children.
