First Look: Johnny Depp in Marc Webb's ‘Day Drinker'

April 14, 2025 Jordan Ruimy

Johnny Depp is officially making Hollywood movies again. Marc Webb’s “Day Drinker,” which is currently in production, stars Depp and Penelope Cruz. A first look image was just released for the film and can be seen above.

Here’s the synopsis that was posted back in March:

“Day Drinker” tells the story of a private-yacht bartender (Madelyn Cline) who encounters a mysterious, onboard guest (Depp). They soon find themselves entangled with a criminal figure (Cruz) and connected in ways no one saw coming.

“Day Drinker,” coming to us from Lionsgate, is based on an original story by Zach Dean (“The Tomorrow War”) and unfolds along coastal France, Portugal, and Spain. Webb is best known for “500 Days of Summer,” “The Amazing Spider-Man,” “Gifted” and Disney’s live-action “Snow White.”

This is a big deal for Depp, and the most high-profile project he’s embarked on since the Amber Heard allegations. Depp was quickly deemed persona non grata in Hollywood because of his former wife Heard’s domestic violence accusations. He had to go to court to get his good name back, but even after his victory, he was still not been fully welcomed back in many industry circles.

Cruz and Depp have worked together on three films: “Blow” (2001), “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides” (2011), and “Murder on the Orient Express” (2017). Cruz has also been one of Depp's most famous supporters following his defamation case against Heard.

“Many years have passed and I have not only made 3 movies with him, but I also count on him as a great friend," wrote Cruz on documents submitted to the court. "I’ve always been impressed by his kindness, his brilliant mind, his talent, and his peculiar sense of humor."

Since 2018, Depp has been relegated to starring in low-budget films such as “The Professor,” “City of Lies,” “Waiting for the Barbarians,” and “Minamata.” Depp’s most recent project was “Modi,” which he directed and world premiered at the San Sebastian Film Festival this past September.
