$4 million on a failed record label and $3 million to shoot Hunter S. Thompson’s ashes out of a cannon.
He doesn’t dispute many of the numbers, but took issue with the cannon cost.
“It was not $3 million to shoot Hunter into the f—king sky,” he fumed. “It was $5 million.”
Depp insisted that it cost $2 million more because he wanted to launch the late author’s remains higher than the 151-foot height of the Statue of Liberty, though Rolling Stone reports that Depp may have flubbed the $5 million number, as most recorded documents list the price at $3 million.
The actor also somewhat confirmed
reports that he has lines fed to him in an earpiece on film sets.
