‘It isn’t about politics – it’s about money’: will Hollywood take Johnny Depp back?

The actor has been coy about returning to movies after his blockbuster defamation case - but PR moves are being made

Johnny Depp can probably thank his lawyers and PR for suddenly having a shot at a dramatic public image resurrection, but the question remains whether Hollywood will soon restore him to the big screen he used to dominate.

In the wake of his dramatic win in the defamation case against his ex-wife and fellow star Amber Heard - though Heard herself also won on one count against her former husband's agent - speculation is now rife that Depp may go back to movies, despite his own claims that he has no interest in returning to the franchise blockbusters that supplied his fortune.
