Johnny Depp and Penélope Cruz have once again made headlines, this time not because of a movie, but due to an unexpected cultural visit in Madrid. The pair, who've kept a long friendship for more than two decades, visited Museo Reina Sofía, admiring a work that doesn't go unnoticed: Picasso's Guernica. This meeting has sparked international interest and has been covered by the American press, who haven't missed the chance to talk about the bond between both actors.
People magazine has highlighted that Depp and Cruz are in the middle of promoting their new movie, The Day Drinker. This is the fourth time they've shared the screen, and it seems that the connection they have off set remains intact. According to the American outlet, they posed together in front of the museum's black-and-white mural, an image that's quickly circulated on social media.

Since that first collaboration, their professional relationship has turned into a true friendship, visible every time they meet in public. This visit to the museum hasn't only served to enjoy art, but also to fuel the anticipation around their next film project. The combination of both talents is something the American press has already confirmed "is very good."

However, not everything has been well received because journalist Marina Ortiz has been one of the first to point out the mistake in the famous magazine's description. On her TikTok, she explained that "it's not a mural, because a mural has to be painted on a wall." She also added that it's not just any painting, but Guernica.
Meanwhile, Museo Reina Sofía has shared several images of the duo, which have been enthusiastically received by both artists' followers. Beyond the promotion, the visit has been a special moment for the museum and for Spanish culture, which attracts international figures. This kind of event also helps strengthen Madrid's cultural image abroad.
