After a podcast episode powerful angels of truth on January 30, in which Lola Glaudini recounts having been mistreated by Johnny Depp on the set of filming BlowThe actor has broken his silence.

“Johnny always prioritizes good working relationships with the cast and crew and this account differs greatly from the recollection of other members on set at the time,” a representative for Depp said in a statement to Deadline.

The actress said that while filming a scene for the 2001 film BlowDirector Ted Demme told Glaudini to “laugh” as Depp delivered a monologue.

“I hear the signal and I say haha, I laugh too much or whatever,” Glaudini said. “Johnny Depp, when they say cut, he comes up to me, he comes up to me, he sticks his finger in my face and he says, ‘Who the fuck do you think you are? Who the fuck do you think you are? Shut your damn mouth. I’m out here, and I’m trying to say my lines and you’re concentrating. Fucking idiot. Oh, now, oh, now he’s not so funny? Now can you shut up? Now can you shut the fuck up? The peace of mind that you are now, that’s how you stay.’”

Glaudini said this happened on his first day on set and that he had not met Depp before adding: “This was my first studio film, until then I had only done independent films. And I have the star who I’ve idolized, who I’m so excited to work with, dig in my face. The only thing that went through my head was: ‘Don’t cry, don’t cry, don’t cry.'”

The actress recalled that Depp approached her later and gave her “an unapologetic apology,” saying, “He said, ‘You know, before I was really in my head and staying in character, I’m doing this Boston accent. , and he’s really fucking with me. So I’m a little tense and stuff. So he just wanted to make sure we’re okay and all?’”

She continued: “I looked at him and thought, ‘I don’t know what you’re talking about? Of course, what are you talking about? Totally brilliant.’ Because I was like… my dad said, ‘Don’t let them see you sweat.’ So that was it.”

Glaudini also noted that Demme, who died in 2002, did not apologize to her after the incident, saying he “didn’t come to say anything,” making her feel like she was “totally abandoned.”

“When we finished, I was like an outcast,” she added. “No one wanted to talk to me, because I’m the bitch he criticized.”
