Johnny Depp completely transformed into Ebenezer Scrooge in new pics of the actor filming “Ebenezer: A Christmas Carol.”
Depp, 62, was photographed on set in London, looking noticeably more wrinkled to play the grouchy miser in the latest adaptation of the Charles Dickens classic.
Depp, sporting a hat that covered his ears, rocked long gray sideburns and patchy facial hair. His eyebrows were also bushier and matched the shade of his hair.
The actor appeared to be shivering due to the cold temperatures, wearing a long blue and black brocade coat appropriate for the Victorian period the film is set in.
The three-time Oscar-nominee was filming scenes with his co-star Andrea Riseborough, who’s playing the Ghost of Christmas Past.
Directed by Ti West, “Ebenezer: A Christmas Carol” also stars Sam Claflin, Ian McKellen, Daisy Ridley and Rupert Grint.
The film, which is a darker, more gothic horror take on Dickens’ story, is set to be released on Nov. 13.
The movie marks Depp’s comeback to big-budget Hollywood films after winning his defamation case against ex Amber Heard in 2022.
Depp sued Heard, 39, for $50 million in February 2019 for defaming him in a 2018 Washington Post op-ed about abuse.
After Heard lost the defamation trial, she was ordered to pay Depp $10 million in compensatory damages and $350,000 in punitive damages. She was awarded $2 million in compensatory damages for her counterclaim.
In December 2022, the two settled the case, with Heard agreeing to pay Depp $1 million.
The “Aquaman” actress — who’s since relocated to Spain — recently made a rare comment on how the highly publicized trial impacted her during a guest appearance in “Silenced,” a documentary about accused men weaponizing defamation lawsuits to silence women speaking out about abuse.
“This is not about me. I have lost my ability to speak,” she said during a confessional chat with director Selina Miles, per Variety.
“I am not here to tell my story. I don’t want to tell my story,” she added. “In fact, I don’t want to use my voice anymore. That’s the problem.”
