Jaded Johnny Depp Launches Into Bitter Blast On Amber Heard ‘Televised Soap Opera’ Court Battle — and Admits He’ll ‘Never Forget’ Trauma

The 61-year-old has just finished directing Modi: Three Days on the Wing of Madness about drugged-up, womanizing painter Amedeo Modigliani, and he launched into an explosive blast about his past battles while opening up about why he identifies with the rebel artist.

He said in an appearance at the San Sebastian International Film Festival: “Each has their story. Sure, we can say that I’ve been through a number of things here and there. But, you know, I’m alright.”

Referring to how his defamation court battle against his ex Amber, 38, was turned into a TV sensation, he added: “I think we’ve all been through a number of things, ultimately. Maybe yours wasn’t… didn’t turn into a soap opera, televised, in fact.

“But we all experience and go through what we go through. And those things that we are able to live and remember and use, these are your stripes. You never forget them.”
