Cannes: Johnny Depp, the renowned Hollywood actor, made a heartfelt return to the spotlight at the 76th Cannes Film Festival.

The festival kicked off with the premiere of "Jeanne du Barry," directed by Maiwenn, where Depp portrays the role of French king Louis XV.

The period drama marks his comeback to the big screen after a highly publicized trial involving his ex-wife Amber Heard.

During the premiere, as the credits rolled and the audience erupted into applause, Johnny Depp was overwhelmed with emotion.

 

A video capturing the moment shows the actor visibly moved, shedding tears as he stood on the stage.

The crowd recognized his talent and dedication, rewarding him with a standing ovation that lasted an impressive seven minutes.

The Cannes Film Festival serves as a platform for filmmakers and actors to showcase their artistic endeavors, and for Depp, this particular film holds significant importance.

After a tumultuous period in his personal life, the positive reception of "Jeanne du Barry" reaffirms his place in the industry and the admiration he garners as an actor.

Last year, Johnny Depp and Amber Heard were embroiled in a highly publicized legal battle, with both parties making serious allegations of abuse against each other. The trial attracted widespread media attention and had an impact on Depp's public image.
