Johnny was the guest of honor at the Red Sea International Film Festival 2023 and attended the opening night screening of “HWJN” on Thursday, November 30, in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

Hollywood Reporter Writes:

Johnny Depp underlined his growing relationship with Saudi Arabia on Friday by taking part in a Q&A at the country’s Red Sea Film Festival in Jeddah following a screening of his feature Jeanne du Barry. The actor had been due to attend the screening itself, but as director Maïwenn explained, he’s “always late.”

Not that the crowd minded his self-described “procrastination,” however, with cheers following the discussion, and at least one yell of “We love you, Johnny!” from an audience member as he was ushered away by a security team, to which Depp smiled and waved courteously. Outside the cinema at the Red Sea Mall, where the screening took place, Depp had to be quickly escorted to his car as news of his presence sparked a flood of people racing to catch a glimpse of the actor and attempt to get a selfie.
