Johnny Depp remains the face of Dior Sauvage after signing a three-year “more than $20 million” contract.
While his ex-wife Amber Heard has reportedly left Hollywood and moved to Madrid, Spain, following their high-profile defamation trial last year, the Edward Scissorhand actor, 59, has according to Variety.
The publication pointed out that he was paid nearly double what Robert Pattinson earned as a spokesman for Dior Homme. Similarly, Brad Pitt received $7 million to promote Chanel No. 5.
A source told the outlet that “Most A-listers with fragrance deals rake in about $2 million-$4 million a year, like Chris Pine, whose deal with Armani is valued at $4 million a year for 3 years.”
Depp first became the face of the men’s fragrance in 2015 and has continued to work with the luxury fashion house amid its legal troubles with Heard, who accused him of physical abuse and assault.

Dior assisted Johnny during his trial and sales of the cologne he advertises, Sauvage, increased at retailers, the Wall Street Journal reported in June 2022.
The publication stated that Depp’s cologne was one of their top selling fragrances online last year.
As he continues to flourish professionally, DailyMail.com confirmed that his former wife has “left Hollywood and quietly moved to Spain” with her daughter Oonagh Paige, two.
“She is bilingual in Spanish and is happy there, raising her daughter away from all the noise,” revealed a friend of the artist.
The insider continued, “I don’t think she’s in a hurry to get back to work or to Hollywood, but she’ll probably be back when the time is right for the right project.”
The Aquaman actress sold her home in Yucca Valley, California, last July for $1.1 million (nearly double what she paid for it).
Then, in October, she was photographed on a beach in Mallorca with her friend Eve Barlow. It was then rumored that she lived in a rented house on the island.
But I heard she has now moved permanently to a new home outside Madrid with Oonagh, who is two.

Heard hasn’t worked since filming Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom in 2021, and a modestly budgeted thriller, In The Fire, last spring. (Finally, the Aquaman movie is due out at the end of this year.) It’s not known if Heard is still with Eve Barlow, who has stayed in Los Angeles and works as a writer.
At Christmas, Barlow seemed to imply they had broken up when she posted an essay on Substack saying she was “looking for optimism at the end of a life-changing year.”
She added, “Today I was reminded of a beautiful passage from a poem by Khalil Gibran about why strength must be nurtured and revived within ourselves, often alone.”
In July 2021, Heard announced on Instagram that she had become a mother.
The actress penned a lengthy message in the caption of her post revealing that her little girl, whose father has not been publicly revealed, had arrived in April.
She also expressed her thoughts on parenting in the statement, which read in part, “I hope we get to a point where it’s normal not to want a ring to have a crib.”
Heard’s daughter was born a year before the Depp v. Heard case, which centered on defamation allegations leveled by both the actress and her former husband.

In the end, it turned out that the Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas star had been defamed by his ex, while a single statement from his former attorney Adam Waldman about the actress was also found to be defamatory; seen in May 2022
The couple were married from 2015 to 2017 and the Pineapple Express actress claimed that the Pirates Of The Caribbean star was physically assaulted during their marriage, which he denied.
Heard also had an op-ed published by The Washington Post in 2018, outlining how she felt as if speaking out about the alleged abuse she suffered during her marriage negatively impacted her career.
The actress then filed a lawsuit against News Group Newspapers for printing several allegations about his marriage through The Sun in 2020, though he eventually lost his case.
Depp then sued his ex-wife for libel over the 2019 opinion, and she followed suit before their trial began last July.
In the end, it turned out that the Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas star had been defamed by his ex, while a single statement from his former attorney Adam Waldman about the actress was also found to be defamatory.
While both parties appealed the verdicts, they dropped and settled the case last December, when it was decided that the actor would receive $1 million from his former wife’s insurance company.
Heard subsequently released a statement regarding the settlement and expressed via BBC that she had “lost faith in the American justice system.”
