Penelope Cruz Shares Selfie With Johnny Depp

Penelope Cruz, 50, posted a selfie with Johnny Depp on her Instagram story*: the actors met at the San Sebastian Film Festival. Cruz appeared there with her husband Javier Bardem, and Depp, 61, who recently resumed his career after being "canceled" amid legal proceedings with his ex-wife Amber Heard, presented his new film.

Penelope Cruz and Johnny Depp starred together in the 2001 film Blow, about real-life criminal George Jung (played by Depp). In the film, which became a cult classic, they played a married couple. The film also starred a then-teenage Emma Roberts, who played their on-screen daughter.

Johnny Depp and Amber Heard ended their domestic violence trial in 2022, with the court finding Heard guilty of defamation. The verdict left Amber very upset, as she said she was afraid of how her story would impact other women who had faced violence. She believed Depp's popularity helped him win the case, as the jury was well-disposed towards him. After the trial, Amber Heard left the United States and moved to Spain, where she lives with her daughter. The actress said she faced online bullying and lost her contracts.
