Johnny Depp is sincere for being fired by fantastic animals: “F*. There are too many of me to kill”

Johnny Depp He finally opened more directly on his sudden shooting from Fantastic beasts franchising, and is not covering it.

The actor notoriously represented the dark magician Gellert Grindelwald in Fantastic beasts and where to find them and its sequel Grindelwald crimesbefore being ousted from the third film in the middle of an intense and very public legal battle with his ex -wife, Amber has heard.

While the study has never published a detailed explanation, Warner Bros. replaced Depp with Mads Mikkelsen For Dumbledore’s secretsA move that triggered a repercussions of the Depp supporters and left the film creatively and commercially unstable.

Now, speaking with the telegraph, Depp shed light on how everything went. And his comments are straightforward.

“Listen, they said all the kinds of things out in the world about me, and I don’t bother me. I don’t run in office. It literally stopped in a millisecond, as, while I was doing the film. I would like to like you that we would like you to discharge. But what was really in my head was that they wanted me to retire.”

When asked how he felt at that moment, Depp said:

“It was *** you. There are too many of me to kill. If you think you can hurt me more than I have already been injured, you’re seriously wrong.”

Depp had filmed only one scene only for the third film before being asked to leave. While Mikkelsen offered a strong performance like Grindelwald, the sudden switch was shocking for many fans, and did not help Dumbledore’s secretswhich stumbled at the box office, obtaining only $ 407 million globally with a budget of $ 200 million. That soft performance, together with the controversy and the interest in decline, actually set aside the whole Fantastic beasts franchise.

In the meantime, Depp has remained mostly from the territory of success since then, even if the voices continue to disturb for a possible return to Pirates of the Caribbean Franchise, a move that could redefine its place in Hollywood.

For now, Depp seems in peace with what happened, but not without some scars and certainly no excuse.
