Johnny Depp gossiped about his ‘Public Enemies’ co-stars in French.
The 46-year-old actor has revealed he and French beauty Marion Cotillard
would speak to each other in the European language so cast and crew members
would not know what they were talking about.
“We would sometimes speak French to each other on the set,
especially when we didn’t want anyone else to know what we were saying!”
However, the 33-year-old actress quickly grew tired of speaking in her
native language because she felt it was affecting her acting.
“Johnny’s French is excellent. But I could not let myself lapse
into speaking a lot of pure French with Johnny. I was working so hard to
really perfect the accent of my character Billie Frechette, and that was not
easy. She was of mixed heritage – both French and Native American – and
supposedly had an accent that was quite different.”
Johnny – who lives in the South of France with his long-term partner Vanessa
Paradis and their two children, 10-year-old Lily-Rose and Jack, seven -
praised his co-star for her acting skills and can understand why his
character was attracted to Billie.
“Marion really worked hard on that accent, and I think the way she
speaks in the film adds so much to the personality of the character she
plays. You can see why Dillinger fell in love with her so easily.”
Although Johnny and Marion were happy to gossip off-screen, their co-star
Christian Bale admits he was more reclusive.
I wish to not talk unless we’re doing the scene. I enjoy it that
way. Johnny seemed happy to do it that way, too. So the answer is, no, we
really didn’t get to know each other better between each take.
"So I guess I’ll have to wait and get to know Johnny Depp someday."
Imagine having a co-star who wouldn’t talk to you off camera because they wanted to stay in character? That must be so hard to have to deal with for all those months.

I wish I could speak French…
He can be French all over me.
I can believe that this DISGUSTINGLY BEEEEEEEAUTIFUL MAN , YET , HAS ANOTHER FLAW……..NOT! GOD HE IS TRULY SEXY. HE, SPEAKS FRENCH . WHAT NEXT, HE’S A GENTLEMAN AND A BAD ASS BADBOY AND GREAT SPOUSE AND FATHER……HA! WHAT A JOKE………THIS FUKER ALREADY IS. He gives the rest of men in the world a really hard follow through. Who could compete with that?
Can u imagine Johnny Depp speaking 2 u in French? yeah baby!
what a hot piece of ***!!
sorry
Thats kinda rude. Its like when you go for a mani/pedi at one of those discount places and the females all talk Vietamese to each other and you know they are talking about the customers.
I never liked french language,especially men speaking french:((,the 3 languages i can´t stand are french,polish and italian
Wow, you are not stereotyping at all!
Johnny’s sexy, but I’d rather have Christian Bale–even if he didn’t speak to me for our months!
In Toronto I do not know of one “discount” salon that isnt run by Vietamese/surrounding countries. That is a fact, jack. So much that Elaine on Seinfeld did an episode about it doncha remember?
Why would there be a need to talk in French? What possibly would you be saying that needed to be done so that others could not hear. Johnny, this makes you look bad, because my bet is that you were trying to seduse Marion. And perhaps he succeeded seeing how they are very close to one another, leaving parties together, and sleeping in the same hotels.
MOISTURE!
Yes, Jan I agree. Here in Australia, pretty much all mani/pedi salons are run by Asians. It just a fact, not racism.
I love the french language. But you have to admit, if you and a friend spoke a foreign language, you would be tempted to do that! Or is that just me?
its so admirable how faithful Depp has been to his long time partner
I strongly suggest you view more details at ** I n t e r r a c i a l L o v i n g . c O m ** where you can find me and many handsome black and white men, where I’m waitting for my right girl.
I knew they’d be speaking in french to each other. LOL
Two more days til the movie!!!!!!!
that’s cute! My brother and I are learning italian, and I am excited to be able to have a conversation with him and have noone understand.
Johnny can speak to me in any language he wants!!
Seriously!
So Bale isn’t talking at all between the takes while filming, even if it’s for months. Wow it must be hard to do so.
I would love to just sit and listen to them speak French to each other.
OMG… can you just imagine having Depp whisper sweet nothings to you in French…… *swoon*
It seems a little mean. I do ADORE Johnny though. Hope no one else spoke French there.
So who told them no one else spoke french? anyway, these two in the same movie is TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE, HOTNESSSSSSS.
So true! I like both Johnny and Marion, but to just assume that Americans can not possibly speak another language is just ignorant on their part. Hopefully, they were just joking with their comments. My father is French and I speak the language fluently, even though I was born and raised in North Carolina and have a southern american accent.
