Johnny Depp departs film festival after sparking concern for breaking social distancing with fan

Johnny Depp boards a private jet as he departs Zurich Film Festival… after sparking concern for breaking social distancing with a fan

He was in town to attend the premiere of his new film Crock Of Gold.

And Johnny Depp was seen leaving Zurich’s international airport in a private jet on Sunday night after having completed promotional work for the film at the city’s annual film festival.   

The Fantastic Beasts actor, 57, was dressed in a typically quirky fashion for the trip, sporting ripped grey jeans, a black jacket and a red neck scarf.

With his signature long hair tied back, Johnny looked suave in a set of dark aviators as he walked across the runway. 

The Hollywood star carried a peaked cap in his hand, while he had a quirky heart-patterned scarf tucked into his belt. 

Crock Of Gold – which Johnny produced – is a documentary directed by Julien Temple that tells the story of the Irish band The Pogues. 

It uses unpublished archive footage and family footage with animation.

It had its world premiere at the San Sebastian International Film Festival last week and managed to pick up the Special Jury Prize at the prestigious A-list festival in Spain.  

Johnny was in town for a gala screening in Zurich, and he was seen taking pictures with fans at the airport before he passed through security to leave the country. 

The Pirates of the Caribbean star had got in trouble earlier in the week after breaking social distancing in order to hug a fan as he arrived in the country.     

The actor appeared happy to chat and pose for pictures with fans outside the terminal after he touched down in the country.

However, the film star appeared to forget about the regulations in place, as he wrapped his arms around the female fan waiting outside.

Johnny also stood closely beside the same woman as they posed for a photograph together, as well as a couple of other fans who wanted snaps with the actor.  

Current government guidance in Switzerland states that people in the country should be keeping a distance of at least 1.5 metres from other people.

The rules also state that if it is not possible to maintain that distance, wear a face mask, however Johnny was without a mask at this point.
