Johnny Depp stars in new commercial for Dior Sauvage
Johnny Depp has thanked Dior for sticking by him when others didn’t during his high-profile court cases against ex-wife Amber Heard and The Sun.
The actor has been the brand ambassador for the Dior Sauvage fragrance since 2015 and last week returned as the face in their new commercial titled The Call Of The Blazing Sun.
Dior is said to have welcomed back the 60-year-old with an eye-watering $20million sum to renew his contract, but it’s not just the money he’s grateful for.
In a new interview, the Pirates of the Caribbean star discussed how working with the brand was more than just a work relationship due to their loyalty to him when his name was being tarnished in court.
Speaking to GQ Middle East, he said: “I’ve been working with them for a while now.

“Of course, you develop a personal relationship with folks and keep close to them. They stuck with me through every single second, and that ups the stakes quite a lot for me: they trusted me, they believed in me, and they continued.
“That gesture is so noble and so rare!
“I’ve never been more touched or prouder to have had that support.
“Nobody does that, and the fact that Dior has, I thank every single person involved in making the decision to trust me and stick with me all the way from the bottom to the top and back down.”
Johnny went on to say he will “forever be in their debt” and “forever loyal” to the brand.

Dior released various clips of Johnny’s new advert on their official Instagram page last week.
In one of the posts, he is seen rocking out on his guitar while embracing the scent with his eyes closed.
Alongside the video, the brand wrote: “Uncompromising, profound, authentic, @JohnnyDepp embodies the soul of Sauvage. Never has he been so mesmerizing. Fearless and human.”
In a close-up picture from the commercial, they add: “Bold and powerful, in his essence, his truth, @JohnnyDepp embodies the soul of Sauvage.”
In the full version of the commerical, Johnny is also heard talking about eagles, the sky, dry wood and the cold wind.
For the occasion, he sported a slightly unbuttoned black waistcoat over a shirt with denim jeans.
He wore his famous long locks down and also appeared to be wearing eyeliner, much like his iconic character Jack Sparrow.
According to GQ, sales for Dior Sauvage rocketed after Johnny won his court case last year.
He is expected to stay with the brand for at least another three years.
