Hollywood superstar Johnny Depp has made his return to Hollywood as he has started filming for his upcoming movie Day Drinker.
Lionsgate shared a first-look image of the actor from the film after his high-profile legal battles with ex-wife Amber Heard, reports ‘Variety’.
The film from ‘500 Days of Summer’ and ‘Snow White’ director Marc Webb re-teams Depp and Penelope Cruz for a fourth time after previous collaborations on Blow, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides and Murder on the Orient Express.
As per Variety, Madelyn Cline also stars in the film. Manu Rios, Aron Piper, Juan Diego Botto and Anika Boyle round out the cast. ‘Day Drinker’ tells the story of a private-yacht bartender (Cline) who encounters a mysterious, onboard guest (Depp).
They soon find themselves entangled with a criminal figure (Cruz) and connected in ways no one saw coming.
The film, which begins production in Spain, is produced by Thunder Road’s Basil Iwanyk and Erica Lee, who produce the John Wick franchise for Lionsgate; Adam Kolbrenner, producer of The Tomorrow War, Free Guy and Prisoners, and Zach Dean, who also wrote the original screenplay. Kolbrenner and Dean’s film The Gorge was recently released by Apple TV+/Skydance. (IANS)
