Director Speaks Out on ‘Scary’ Johnny Depp Remarks, Feels ‘Betrayed’ with Media Revisionism


French filmmaker and actress Maïwenn Aurélia Nedjma Le Besco (who is referred to mononymously as “Maïwenn”) is pumping the brakes on recent statements she made that have been circulating online.

Maïwenn fired back at the way her words were framed in an interview with the U.K. outlet The Independent.

The topic of said interview is the ever-controversial and polarizing actor Johnny Depp.
