Lily-Rose Depp is 25: her roles in films and on TV

Lily-Rose Depp was born on May 27, 1999 in Paris. Her parents, actor Johnny Depp and actress/singer Vanessa Paradis, had a huge influence on her, inspiring her to choose a career in film. She first appeared on screen in Kevin Smith's comedy thriller "Tusk" (2014), with her father-partner on the set. Director and screenwriter Smith specifically created for Lily-Rose the role of a phlegmatic employee of a Canadian store so that she could keep company with his daughter Harley Quinn Smith, with whom she has been friends since childhood. Around the same time, the young talent tried her hand at a modeling career, which ultimately led her to a contract with Chanel. In this review, we'll look at other professional achievements of Johnny Depp's daughter and walk through her most significant projects.

"An Honest Man" (2018)

An offer that the aspiring actress, well, could not refuse - to act in her “homeland”, where she was born, in France, with the talented French director/actor Louis Garrel and in French, which she speaks perfectly. Garrel, by the way, played the main role in this psychological drama, and also starred his wife, the famous former fashion model Laetitia Casta. Lily-Rose became her “on-screen” rival for the heart of the hero Louis. In general, everything worked out. The film received the highest score in Depp's filmography on the authoritative film portal Rotten Tomatoes - 81%. But viewers didn’t really like the French romantic’s throwings – only 57%.

Film “The King of England” (2019)

The main role in this historical fantasy was played by Timothée Chalamet, Lily-Rose's boyfriend at the time of filming. The conditions, as they say, contributed to the establishment of a relationship, since Depp portrayed the romantic interest of Timothy Catherine on the screen. On Rotten Tomatoes, The King of England received a 71% positive review from critics and 84% from audiences. After presenting the film in different parts of the world, Chalamet and Depp decided to break up.

Film "Traffic" (2021)

Perhaps the first film of the “serious” genre in Depp Jr.’s filmography. A social drama about the “opioid crisis” with a strong cast. And Lily-Rose, we must give her credit, did not get lost against the background of Gary Oldman, Armie Hammer, Michelle Rodriguez and others. The young actress received $400 thousand for her portrayal of Emmy Kahan. In the case of ratings, both critics and viewers were almost unanimous - 66% and 60%, respectively.

Film "Wolf" (2021)

Possessing a fragile build and expressive eyes, Lily-Rose fits perfectly into the role of Wild Cat, who “tamed” a violent werewolf in a human body with the soul of a wolf. Critics on RT rated the melodramatic thriller directed by Natalie Biancheri at 45%, while viewers liked it more - 64% of likes.

Mini-series “Idol” (2023)

A high-profile project by director Sam Levinson, about which there were a lot of words, opinions and ratings. But on Rotten Tomatoes, it received only 41% likes from audiences and only 19% positive reviews from film critics. Depp played the title role of turbulent pop star Jocelyn, who falls into the clutches of a homegrown cult leader played by Abel Tesfaye or singer The Weeknd. The work required courage from Lily-Rose - there were many scenes with nudity in the series. But, in general, her performance was received favorably, unlike the work of her partner The Weeknd.
