Lily-Rose Depp moves from 'Idol' to 'Nosferatu' in new trailer

Lily-Rose Depp, daughter of Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis, shocked viewers last year with her role in the highly publicized HBO production "Idol." Critics panned the controversial series, but it opened the door to a career for the young actress. Today, she can be seen in the trailer for the movie "Nosferatu."

Lily-Rose Melody Depp was born on May 27, 1999, in Paris. Throughout her childhood, she was shielded from journalists who were curious about what the children of one of the most famous couples in showbiz looked like. Johnny Depp protected his kids' privacy, ensuring they focused on school and education so they wouldn't follow in their parents' footsteps too early and become overwhelmed by fame.

After splitting with his partner, it became more difficult for the actor to raise them, while Vanessa Paradis became a liberal parent. The media started publishing photos of the scantily dressed 13-year-old, which outraged Depp. He didn't want his daughter to be called a "Lolita." The mother tried to channel her daughter's teenage rebellion by encouraging her to start a musical career. However, Lily-Rose Depp followed in her father's footsteps.

"I feel like the luckiest person in the world because I get to do for a living the thing I love the most, the thing that makes me feel the most fulfilled and the most inspired and I get to put all of my emotions into something beautiful, into something creative, something purposeful. I feel really lucky to get to do that, whatever comes from that, even if it’s negative sometimes, to me is a small price to pay to get to do what I do," said Lily-Rose Depp in an interview with "Vogue."

The young actress became widely known due to the very controversial series "Idol."

"I was never interested in making something puritanical. It’s okay if this show isn’t for everyone and that’s fine – I think all the best art is [polarising]. I’ve never felt more respected and more safe on a set, honestly. And I think the trust that we all built with each other, you and I, and Sam and I, and Abel and I, that can only make for a really safe-feeling set.
So when it comes to the nudity and the risqué nature of the role, that to me was really intentional. That was really important to me and something that I was excited about doing. I’m not scared of it. I think we live in a highly sexualised world. I think that’s an interesting thing to explore," said Lily-Rose.

The latest, this time a film production starring Lily-Rose Depp will be "Nosferatu" (the Canadian release is scheduled for January 24, 2025), which also stars Bill Skarsgård, Nicholas Hoult, Emma Corrin, and, of course, Willem Dafoe (how could he be missing from such a film?). This time, Dafoe plays a vampire hunter, but let's remember that years ago, in "Shadow of the Vampire," he portrayed Max Shreck, the very mysterious actor who played the title role in Friedrich W. Murnau's "Nosferatu."
