Cannes Juror Brie Larson Deflects Question About Johnny Depp’s Controversial Opening-Night Film ‘Jeanne Du Barry’

Um, Im sorry, I dont understand the correlation of why me specifically, Larson continued.

So, would the actress actually go see his movie.

Ill see it when I see it, Larson said.

I dont know how I feel about it frankly.

Jeanne du Barryis not playing in competition.

He is extraordinary in the film in a role which is difficult.

I dont why he was cast.

You will have to ask Maiwenn her reasons for choosing him, the festival boss continued.

I am interested in Johnny Depp as an actor, Fremaux said Monday.

InJeanne du Barry,Depp plays Louis XV in a French-speaking role.

I want to come fully virgin … every time I get into one of these films.
