Johnny Depp will join Andrea Bocelli's 30th anniversary concerts alongside other celebrities.

In an Instagram post, Bocelli confirmed that the Pirates of the Caribbean actor will join shows at the Teatro Del Silenzio '24 as a special guest. The shows, which will happen on July 15, 17 and 19, will also see performances from Brian May, Ed Sheeran, Shania Twain and Russell Crowe, among others.

The announcement post also included Bocelli's heartwarming message about Depp, who went through a hard time following his legal battles involving Amber Heard.

"A disarmingly charming actor who has brought countless iconic characters to life on the big screen, this eclectic artist's musical talents are equally intense: a bona fide rockstar loved and applauded everywhere," said Bocelli.

The Italian tenor continued, "I fondly recall playing and singing with Johnny Depp when he visited my home in Tuscany. We're happy to announce that this unexpected pairing will perform once more - and this time in public, as his fans will be thrilled to hear. We want to thank Johnny for accepting our invitation: it will be a joy to welcome him to the Teatro del Silenzio stage".

Depp has starred in several films while expanding his music career. In 2023, he and his band marked their first U.S. tour.

The 61-year-old actor also starred in the French film Jeanne du Barry which opened the 2023 Cannes Film Festival. While he is no longer a frequent actor in Hollywood, a source told People the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory star was "very excited" for his fans to see the films.

Depp also reportedly began doing things that keep him "in really good spirits."

"He is prioritizing his health and wellbeing much more these days," said the insider. "People were loving his look for the Jeanne du Barry U.K. premiere. He got a new haircut, he looked polished and clean-cut. He's lost weight. He's feeling and looking healthier."

The source also disclosed the relationship status of the actor.

"He's really open to anything. It's kind of like a 'never say never.' There are no closed doors. If there's a role that comes along that he's incredibly passionate about, of course he's going to look into it," the insider continued.
