Johnny Depp Reportedly Clashed With The Director Of His Post-Trial Movie, So Could His Comeback Not Happen After All?

With Johnny Depp’s legal battle with Amber Heard reportedly settled, the actor is now able to refocus his efforts on his acting career. Specifically, that means the new period film "Jeanne du Barry" in which Depp will be playing King Louis XV. Johnny Depp was once one of the biggest stars in Hollywood but if the actor was hoping for this movie to be the beginning of a major comeback, he may have already hit a snag.

Wion is reporting a claim from French film commentator Bernard Montield that Johnny Depp and "Jeanne du Barry" director Maïwenn clashed repeatedly while on set. Allegedly, Depp would sometimes not show up on set on time, and then, in retaliation, Maïwenn would sometimes not show up when Depp was there. These timing issues apparently led to several arguments between the two during filming.
