Tim Burton says he would 'for sure' work with Johnny Depp again despite legal battles

Tim Burton has said he would 'for sure' work with actor Johnny Depp again in the future.

The Hollywood director and the actor have collaborated on numerous successful movies in the past, including Edward Scissorhands, Dark Shadows, Alice in Wonderland, Charlie and The Chocolate Factory and Sweeney Todd.

The 64-year-old has now confirmed he would work with Depp again if the right part were to come up, despite his recent legal battles with his ex-wife Amber Heard.

In a new interview, Tim said: "If the right thing was around, sure."

He said if the right character came up for Johnny then he would work with him.

Speaking to Reuters, he said: "I never do things for an intellectual level, I just do things because I want to do them. I just take one at a time, I have no 'yes' or 'no'.

"I think with anybody, you just – I never work with anybody, even with my friends, it’s not like a party so I always would like to try with him or anybody to kind of go; what is the part? What is the thing? And then is it the right thing, is it the right character? I take things on those basis and no others."

This comes after it was announced that Johnny would be taking part in Rihanna's next Savage X Fenty fashion show.

However, they have since faced backlash, with many boycotting the brand.

Johnny is set to be in the show's 'star' moments, becoming the first man to do so.

Past celebs who have taken this slot include supermodel Cindy Crawford and singer Erykah Badu.

The show is described as a 'fashion experience' and Cara Delevingne and Irina Shayk will take to the runway.

Johnny, who has been an ambassador for Dior since 2015, has apparently already filmed his cameo, with a source telling TMZ it is 'cool and chic'.

The show is set to debut on Prime Video on November 9.

Olly Alexander slammed the decision as he announced he won’t be wearing Rihanna’s clothes again after Johnny Depp was reported to have a starring role in her upcoming show.

It’s A Sin star Olly posted a sad face in reaction to a Pop Crave tweet that read: "Depp will become the first man to have his own spotlight segment at Rihanna ’s Savage X Fenty fashion show."

Responding to Olly’s upset, a fan wrote: "But, Savage X Fenty is you baby... you wear it so well."

Olly has worked with the brand in the past as he modelled for Savage X Fenty in the past and was enlisted to take part in their Valentine’s campaign in February this year.
