Influx of fans

Some children eager to see their captain Sparrow even hung from the local palm trees. “Thank you“Depp thanked Czech before the screening of the film Pot of sweets: A few drinks with Shane MacGowanwhich produced.

The arrival of the actor on the red carpet in front of the hotel was a bit delayed, but Johnny Depp devoted even more time to the fans. He handed out signatures, smiles and handshakes in all directions, crying some girls.

The dreaded protests or attacks on Depp associated with his accusations of domestic violence so in Karlovy Vary they were not on the agenda of the day. However, even more police officers guarded the red carpet compared to the opening ceremony.
