Johnny Depp and Penélope Cruz reunite in Spain to film Day Drinker, a thriller directed by Marc Webb. This latest news about the lives of the two actors has just paralyzed Spanish fans eager to see their idols up close.
The film began shooting in April 2025 in Tenerife and has recently moved to Vilanova i la Geltrú, Catalonia. This project marks the fourth collaboration between both actors, solidifying a friendship that dates back more than two decades.
Johnny Depp and Penélope Cruz meet again in Spain
The new film project that brings Johnny Depp and Penélope Cruz together is generating great anticipation. Once again, two of Hollywood's most well-known faces are working together to the delight of their fans.
The latest news about Depp and Cruz brings them to Spain where, since last April, they have been filming their new movie. Both stars have a great affection for the country and its culture, and the choice is not by chance. Spain offers multiple filming options and has been the perfect setting for numerous successful films and series.
This time it is the latest film project by Marc Webb, responsible for hits like The Amazing Spider-Man or Gifted. Day Drinker tells the story of Lorna, a yacht waitress played by Madelyn Cline, who forms a relationship with Kelly, played by Depp. The plot thickens with the appearance of Cara Lauzzana, a criminal figure played by Cruz.
The filming began a month ago in Tenerife and has now moved to Vilanova i la Geltrú, province of Barcelona. In this coastal town, Depp and Cruz will stay with the entire production team for a week. This has caused great anticipation among the fans of both actors eager to see them strolling through their streets.
This is not the first time Johnny travels to our country; this is the second time the international performer sets foot on Spanish soil. A few weeks ago, it was the town of Villaespesa, in Teruel, that hosted the famous actor. He traveled to that small town to shoot a Dior advertisement, for whom he has been an image for years.
Johnny Depp and Penélope Cruz, a relationship consolidated over time
Day Drinker is the fourth collaboration between Johnny Depp and Penélope Cruz. Their professional relationship has flourished over the years thanks to the chemistry they convey from the screen. A chemistry they also keep off-screen, which has allowed their friendship to consolidate.
The friendship between Depp and Cruz was forged during the filming of Blow in 2001 and has strengthened over time. In fact, Penélope confessed what was the first thing she wanted to learn in English when she first set foot in Los Angeles.
"I only knew how to say two things: 'how are you?' and 'I want to work with Johnny Depp,'" she revealed. After achieving her dream, the experience was so positive that she has repeated it numerous times. Meanwhile, Depp has also showered the Spanish actress with praise.
When she received her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, he even delivered an emotional speech. "Penélope is pure, she's a rarity of nature, they don't make women like her anymore," he commented. "She's a true and loyal friend, and I feel privileged to have her in my life," he added.
The collaboration between Depp and Cruz in Day Drinker not only stands out for its cinematic value but also for the story of friendship that unites them. However, we will have to wait until late 2025 or early 2026 to see both actors together again on the big screen.
