After supporting Johnny Depp through his highly publicized legal battles, Robert Downey Jr. once again expressed his support for Depp’s art exhibit.
Despite losing far too much in his notorious divorce and defamation lawsuit against ex-wife Amber Heard, Johnny Depp seems to be finally doing great in life. Although he missed out on several iconic film franchises that he was once synonymous with, Depp appears to be making peace with it, through his art. Dipping the paintbrush and creating masterpieces, Depp recently made headlines for his immersive and experiential exhibition in Manhattan.
And, guess who was there to cheer him through his new art exhibit? His longtime pal Robert Downey Jr. After previously extending his support for Johnny Depp during the tantalizing trial, Downey Jr. once again returned with his praises for his “brother,” following his exhibition at the Starrett-Lehigh Building in the Chelsea neighborhood.
