Johnny Depp has been honoured with a lifetime achievement award at the Rome Film Festival.
The Hollywood star, 61, was recognised with the prize for his “extraordinary journey as a performer” before he presented his new directorial film to the audience, the Italian festival said.
Titled Modi, Three Days On The Wing of Madness, it is described as a “72-hour whirlwind in the life of bohemian artist Amedeo Modigliani, known as Modi”.
Rome Film Festival shared photos to its Instagram of Depp holding the golden statue which was presented to him by the lead actor in Modi, Riccardo Scamarcio.
For the event, the US actor donned a navy suit over a lemon shirt which he paired with a patterned tie that he left loose around his neck.
The film festival also posted photos of the Oscar nominee meeting fans on the red carpet and posing for pictures ahead of the screening.
Depp has starred in a host of films over the years but gained worldwide stardom for his role as Captain Jack Sparrow in the Pirates Of The Caribbean franchise.
He has frequently collaborated with director Tim Burton over the years including starring in Edward Scissorhands, Charlie And The Chocolate Factory, Corpse Bride, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street and Alice In Wonderland.
The actor has made a steady return to the spotlight in recent years following the conclusion of a high-profile defamation case against his ex-wife Amber Heard.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
