LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Johnny Depp, who made headlines after his defamation case with ex-wife Amber Heard and his words on a Hollywood "boycott", is back as the face of Dior's Sauvage perfume.

The 60-year-old 'Pirates of the Caribbean' actor made a comeback for his first commercial campaign for the cologne following the end of his trial against Heard in 2022.

Is Johnny Depp still the face of Sauvage?

Depp remains the face of Dior Sauvage. In the most recent commercial, 'The Call Of The Blazing Sun', he spoke in a brooding tone about eagles, the sky, dried wood and the chilly wind. 

"Bold and powerful, in his essence, his truth, embodies the soul of Sauvage," Dior stated on Instagram. The brand called him "fearless."

The Hollywood star exuded gypsy-like looks in a black outfit, silver jewelry and tousled long hair. He was sporting black denim jeans with silver buttons on the pockets.

Dior released the commercials on social media on Thursday, September 7.
