Johnny Depp makes comeback with 'Ebenezer: A Christmas Carol': Watch

Johnny Depp joins Ti West's Ebenezer: A Christmas Carol as the lead actor in the horror inspired adaptation.

Announcing the project, the makers wrote, "The name you know. The story you don't. @johnnydepp is Ebenezer Scrooge in #EbenezerMovie - only in theatres November 13."

The actor promoted the project at San Diego Comic-Con, where he appeared as Ebenezer Scrooge in Ti West's upcoming adaptation of Charles Dicken's A Christmas Carol and interacted with attendees in character.

"Do you have jobs? It seems as though you have so much spare time. Why are you here?" he joked before adding, "I can only say you're all very, very strange people. Humbug!"

In the trailer, the character is displayed facing ghosts and supernatural events that make him think about his past mistakes.

The project marks Depp's return to major Hollywood studio filmmaking since 2018 and comes ahead of his appearance in the action thriller Day Drinker with Penélope Cruz and Madelyn Cline.
