Johnny Depp and Penélope Cruz reunite in Madrid
Johnny Depp and Penélope Cruz were spotted sharing smiles during a recent museum visit in Madrid. The two stars took a break from filming their new movie, Day Drinker , to explore the Museo Reina Sofía. Their warm camaraderie was clear as they posed arm in arm in front of a striking black-and-white mural. The museum's Instagram even shared the moment, captioning it: 'Thanks for joining us @johnnydepp and @penelopecruzoficial, until next time!' This marks the fourth time Depp, 62, and Cruz, 51, have teamed up on screen. Their previous collaborations include Blow (2001), Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (2011), and Murder on the Orient Express (2017). Now, they are back together for Day Drinker , an action thriller directed by Marc Webb and penned by Zach Dean, according to Daily Mail. The film follows a mysterious stranger (Depp) who crosses paths with a grieving bartender (Madelyn Cline) on a private yacht. Their lives become entangled with a criminal figure played by Cruz, leading to unexpected twists and turns. Orlando Bloom, Depp's co-star from the Pirates franchise, showed his support by leaving two red heart emojis on the museum post. He also hinted at the possibility of 'getting the band together' for another movie, sparking excitement among fans. This is Johnny Depp's first major film role since 2018's Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald . After his highly publicised 2022 defamation trial with ex-wife Amber Heard, Depp has been slowly making a comeback. He starred in the French film Jeanne du Barry , which opened the 2023 Cannes Film Festival, and directed Modi: Three Days on the Wing of Madness . At the San Sebastian Film Festival premiere last September, Cruz reunited with Depp, highlighting their enduring friendship. She praised him, saying, 'Many years have passed and I have not only made three movies with him, but I also count on him as a great friend. I've always been impressed by his kindness, his brilliant mind, his talent and his peculiar sense of humour.' The buzz around Day Drinker is growing, with a talented cast including Manu Ríos, Arón Piper, Juan Diego Botto, and Anika Boyle. The film promises a gripping story of connection, crime, and unexpected bonds. In today's fast-paced world, it's refreshing to see such genuine friendship and artistic collaboration thrive.

Kanye West makes a dramatic court appearance to support ‘Diddy'
Kanye West made a brief but striking appearance on Friday to show support for his longtime friend Sean 'Diddy' Combs. Combs faces serious sex trafficking and racketeering charges. Dressed head to toe in white, Kanye arrived just before noon, accompanied by Combs's son, Christian 'King' Combs. This stirred a buzz among onlookers and the media. When asked if he was there to back Combs, Kanye simply nodded and said 'yes' before swiftly moving towards an elevator. He declined to comment on whether he might testify in the trial's upcoming defence phase. Unable to enter the main courtroom, Kanye was directed to an overflow room where he watched the proceedings for about 40 minutes. He then left the courthouse and drove away, according to The Guardian. The trial centres on allegations that Combs, 55, used his celebrity, wealth, and intimidation to coerce women into sex trafficking over two decades. Combs has pleaded not guilty, with his lawyers arguing the activities were consensual adult encounters and part of a swinger lifestyle. Kanye's appearance came a day after 'Jane,' a woman who testified under a pseudonym, concluded six days of harrowing testimony. She described feeling pressured to have sex with male sex workers while Diddy Combs watched. She also recounted a disturbing relationship that lasted until Combs's arrest last September. Jane also testified about a trip to Las Vegas in January 2023 with a famous rapper close to Combs. This is where a group witnessed a sex worker engage in sexual acts at a hotel party. Jane's testimony revealed complex emotions; despite the trauma, she expressed ongoing affection for Combs. 'I do still love him,' and asking for peace for him. Her account echoed that of Cassie Ventura, another former partner who testified about multi-day sexual events during her years with Combs. The trial has seen vivid details emerge, including testimony about Diddy Combs's Los Angeles home being searched. Authorities found firearms and hundreds of bottles of lubricant, highlighting the scale of the alleged enterprise. The jury also learned about the chaotic state of hotel rooms after Combs's 'hotel nights,' as described by his former assistant. As the trial continues, the world watches closely. Kanye's presence, though brief, sent a clear message: he stands firmly behind Combs. Whether he will take the stand remains to be seen, but his support is unmistakable. This case remains one of the most closely followed legal dramas in recent memory, with implications far beyond the music industry.
