Search the entire history of cinema, and you won’t find an actor, performer, and star like Johnny Depp. Known best for his peculiar yet memorable characters, Depp has for years made cinema better, richer, and enjoyable with his unique acting prowess. However, his massive career has now been reduced to his very public lawsuit with ex-wide Amber Heard.
Despite the overbearing nature of the lawsuit on the personal and professional life of Depp, his close friends remain by his side. One of his closest friends and bandmate, Alice Cooper opened up about the effects of the lawsuit on their band and their relationship and even joked about getting the ‘exes’ back together.
Alice Cooper Opens Up About His Relationship With Johnny Depp
Johnny Depp and Alice Cooper have been friends for years and ever since they formed their band, Hollywood Vampires in 2012, their friendship has only grown. Their recent Hollywood Vampires Tour was Depp’s one of the first public appearances in the midst of the domestic abuse allegations. So, when Cooper was asked if there was any hesitancy to bring Depp on the tour, the rockstar stated,
“Not at all. If you talk to Johnny about it, it was something that happened. He was just like, ‘Yeah, yeah, what’s the next song?’ For Johnny, it was one of those things where … you can’t say it got blown out of proportion, but I don’t know why they would televise the proceedings, right? It’s because of the fame of both people.”
Well, Cooper isn’t in the wrong since even the fans had the same sentiment that the defamation case was amplified beyond reason.
Alice Cooper Wants Johnny Depp To Make A Movie With Amber Heard
Johnny Depp’s defamation case with ex-wife Amber Heard received way too much attention and had severe negative implications for his career. He was fired from his iconic role of Captain Jack Sparrow and lost out on multiple other opportunities. Despite the sensitive nature of the case, Cooper went ahead to joke,
“The best thing I said about the whole thing was, ‘They should do a remake of War of the Roses with Johnny and Amber.’ Who’s not gonna go see that? I’m going to see that! To make it even better, make their lawyers Angie and Brad. All you need is a really funny director, and that’s gonna be a monster hit.”
The legendary rockstar joked, stating that even the infamous former couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt should come on board. Even though his wild idea is an impossible feat, if it were to happen it would be quite a spectacle to witness.
