Lily-Rose Depp is standing up for Sam Levinson and their collaboration on HBO’s “The Idol.”
On the “Happy Sad Confused” podcast, Depp spoke up for Levinson facing criticism over his one-season HBO show “The Idol,” which had negative reviews from both critics and viewers. As a cast member playing the rising pop star Jocelyn, Depp stated that Levinson anticipated the controversy but continued because he enjoys such challenging projects.
Johnny Depp expressed that it was disappointing to hear others speaking negatively about Sam Levinson, someone he considers not just a friend but family. He is very close with Sam and his wife Ashley, who is also a producer on the show. They are truly wonderful people, kind and supportive; they’ve been like a guiding force for Depp.
Even though the show faced negative reviews and controversy after Amy Seimetz’s departure, Johnny Depp expressed that the most challenging aspect was hearing untrue criticisms about Sam Levinson, particularly regarding his abilities as a filmmaker. These accusations were far from his own experiences working with him, making it disheartening to hear people speak negatively about someone he considers a friend.
Johnny Depp expressed his affection for the show and his character, feeling a sense of pride for standing firm amidst criticism. He described this time as incredibly educational, stating, “I was stretched beyond my comfort zone during this period, in the most wonderful way, and it provided me with an incredible amount of personal growth that I will always cherish, considering it one of the most memorable phases of my life.
In ‘The Idol’, Jocelyn, played by Depp, experiences a romantic entanglement with a questionable self-help mentor known as The Weekend, following a career-halting nervous breakdown. After numerous retakes and Seimetz’s departure, the episodes for ‘The Idol’ were trimmed down to five, and shortly after, rumors of its termination surfaced.
