“Lily-Rose challenged”: Johnny Depp spoke about the erotic series with the participation of the 24-year-old daughter 06/07/2023, 15:15

The daughter of the American actor Johnny Depp and the French actress Vanessa Paradis starred in the erotic series Idol, where her partner was the rapper The Weeknd (Abel Tesfaye). The first episodes with porn elements were presented at the Cannes Film Festival, where they were heavily criticized for excessive sexual content and exaggerated themes. Recently, HBO launched the series on its platform.

Lily-Rose plays the role of singer Jocelyn, who has a nervous breakdown on tour. Her life changed after she met the mysterious nightclub manager Tedros. At the same time, film critics said that creator Sam Levinson had turned the series into “torture porn and a rape fantasy”. Johnny Depp praised the furious controversy surrounding the tape of his daughter exposing her breasts, then starred in a scandalous masturbation scene.

“Johnny loves that Lily is building her own career and is being challenged to take on roles that interest her and challenge her. He likes being an independent person and becoming an independent actress. He’s not making his career dependent on his success,” said a source close to Johnny.

The actor himself is not afraid of experiments in his work and believes that Lily-Rose did the right thing when she decided on such an honest project. Intimate scenes involving his daughter Depp considers only part of the profession. “She loves that she’s such a strong personality, especially now that she’s gotten some extra attention with her recent role on Idol. He’s proud of her and doesn’t care about the extra fuss and drama the role has brought. Depp thinks he must be doing something right to get so much attention for the role and is proud of its success.”

Lily-Rose Depp herself previously defended the series and its creator after members of the film’s crew said on condition of anonymity that Sam Levinson took nudity, sex and violence to an exploitative level. “Sam is in many ways the best director I have ever worked with. I have never felt such support or respect in the creative space, my contributions and opinions have never been so appreciated, “said the girl.
