Depp Returns as the Face of Sauvage
Johnny Depp, at the age of 60, is making a comeback as the face of Dior’s Sauvage fragrance. This marks his first endorsement for the fragrance after his legal battle with ex-wife Amber Heard in 2022.
New Dior Commercial
In the new commercial, Depp appears in all-black attire and recites poetry, creating a captivating atmosphere. He paints vivid scenes of nature, saying, “An eagle cries as it circles its prey. The blazing sun high in the ozone blue sky. A trail of cold wind stirs a land of dry wood and stone, this is the call of Sauvage Eau.”
A Lucrative Deal
Variety reports that Depp has signed a three-year contract with Dior worth a staggering $20 million. This deal is touted as the most significant men’s fragrance endorsement in history. Dior celebrated Depp’s return with an Instagram post, describing him as someone who “embodies the soul of Sauvage.”
Depp’s Comeback
Johnny Depp’s return to Dior comes after his defamation trial against Amber Heard. While both were found liable for defamation, the jury largely favored Depp, awarding him $10.35 million in damages, while Heard received $2 million.
During the summer, Depp went on tour with his band, The Hollywood Vampires, and appeared at the Cannes Film Festival. He also starred in the French-language film “Jeanne Du Barry” as King Louis XV.
Future Projects
Looking ahead, Depp is set to direct the film “Modi,” based on the play “Modigliani” by Dennis McIntyre. Depp, now 60, is focused on self-care and moderation as he continues to balance his career and personal life.
Debunking Dating Rumors
Amidst the buzz, there were rumors of Depp dating actress Jenna Ortega. However, both Ortega and Depp’s representatives swiftly refuted these claims. Depp’s spokespersons clarified that he has no personal or professional relationship with Ortega and has never met or spoken to her. They denounced the rumors as baseless and malicious attempts to harm Depp’s reputation and career.
