Johnny Depp Fractures His Ankle and Cancels Performances – Johnny Depp has revealed that a minor hairline break in his ankle has progressed into a more severe fracture, resulting in the need to reschedule his performances with the Hollywood Vampires.
In an Instagram post, the actor shared the news of his injury, expressing that it will prevent him from joining his band on tour for an extended period of time. “My dear friends, I am sorry to say that I have fractured my ankle, which is a drag!!! It began as a hairline break but somewhere between Cannes and the Royal Albert Hall it got worse rather than better.”
“Several medical professionals have strongly suggested I avoid any and all activity for the moment and so am sadly unable to travel at this time,” he wrote. “The guys and I are very sorry to miss you in New Hampshire, Boston and New York,” he said of his band, the Hollywood Vampires.

In his post, 59-year-old Depp provided the revised dates for his performances on July 28, 29, and 30, along with a pledge to deliver an incredible show and his heartfelt apologies to his fans. In May, the actor’s French-language film Jeanne du Barry premiered at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival, where Depp engaged in autograph signings, took selfies with fans, and participated in a press conference discussing his “comeback” in the film.
During the conference, he fielded questions about whether he perceives a boycott from Hollywood following his widely publicized legal disputes. “Do I feel boycotted now? No, not at all,” he said. “But I don’t feel boycotted by Hollywood because I don’t think about it. I don’t think about Hollywood. I don’t have much further need for Hollywood myself.”
He later added, “I keep wondering about the word comeback because I didn’t go anywhere. As a matter of fact, I live about 45 minutes away. So yeah, maybe people stopped calling out of whatever their fear was at the time. But no, I didn’t go anywhere. I’ve been sitting around.”
