Lily-Rose Depp covers the new digital issue of V Magazine. She’s promoting her new films, Yoga Hosers, Planetarium and The Dancer. Coincidentally, on Tuesday the trailer for Yoga Hosers dropped and… this just seems so bizarre. What surprised me the most (besides the fact that Kevin Smith is still allowed to make movies) is that Lily-Rose has an absolutely perfect American accent. I had never heard her speak before, and I always assumed that her accent would be more pan-European. I forgot that Lily-Rose has spent a large chunk of her childhood in LA. The film also stars Kevin Smith’s daughter Harley Quinn Smith, Johnny Depp, Natasha Lyonne and more. And it looks awful.
So, there you go. After careful career management, Lily-Rose Depp’s first film is going to be a flop. To be fair though, people are interested in her work in The Dancer, so we’ll see. As for her profile in V Magazine, you can read the full piece here. Some scant highlights:
Premiering Yoga Hosers at Sundance: “It was so fun. I loved that the premiere took place at midnight. The vibes were good… The most fun part of making the movie was being able to learn and experience everything for the first time with people I love and admire.”
Learning how to act: “I learned so much working on this movie. Kevin [Smith] really helped me come out of my shell as an actress. Being able to feel free and comfortable in your character’s skin is so important. I’m lucky I had such great people surrounding me to help me do that.”
Apparently, Lily-Rose also speaks perfect French, and The Dancer is a French-language film. And Soko is in it! Soko, Kristen Stewart’s ex-girlfriend. I think the French will probably be more welcoming to Lily-Rose at this stage in her career, although if she sticks with it… sure, she’ll probably find her niche as an actress in America too.

The vibes man, like. Vibes were good.
She got that from her dad right?
LMFAO!!
Sigh, barely out yet and already she feels annoying. We’re still dealing with her Dad being an obnoxious celebrity.
I await seeing her everywhere and doing everything.
How is her iconic Dad an obnoxious celebrity? He’s one of the nicest celebrities in Hollywood.
I honestly don’t know what to think about that movie. Maybe I’ll see it if it’s on a movie channel, maybe.
Aw, I love Kevin Smith movies! Granted I haven’t seen the latest ones. I stopped paying attention after Clerks 2, which I enjoyed thoroughly. Even if the plot (or lack of one) is a little off the wall, I really like the witty dialogue and quick paced conversations. You don’t often get that in American movies, which tend to cut short exchanges so we can get to the action sequences (where nobody is talking while things go vroom and boom).
ITA and Mallrats FTW.
There are plenty of American films like the ones you describe. If you can’t be bothered to seek out anything other than superhero movies, that’s on you.
The thirst is real folks.
PS: As a Canadian, I can’t with this trailer.
So I didn’t watch the trailer, but when I saw hosers, I immediately thought, “oh no, how are they mocking?” Now I won’t watch it for sure. Thanks for the warning!
Get real. Canadians mock Americans at literally every possible opportunity. The level of hypocrisy is astounding.
In other words she has no clue about the craft of acting, it’s all about nepotism. The bonus for her is that she received the best genes from each parent. Her looks will take her far.
That’s funny… to me, she got the worst. She looks like “Drunk Johnny Smells a Fart.”
Really? The worst? She looks like a female version of young Johnny, which is a good thing.
I was just thinking that looked just like her mother at the same age. But prettier. And, unfortunately, without that little something Vanessa had.
I also think that she looks like an unsocial version of younger Vanessa… but also as a less beautiful one.
I find her really really pretty but fat for the stunning gorgeous parents when they were young.
Surely Tim Burton will come up with some character for her. She looks like she belongs in a movie with HBC, Johnny Depp and Chloe G. Moretz.
Ha ha..yeah she definitely has the right aesthetic.
She looks like a sulky 12 year old.
Isn’t she a sulky 12 year old?
Another entitled Hollywood spawn, oh goody, we really need more of those. Johnny’s quirky make-up fetish is approaching ridiculous, why does he always need to hide behind scads of latex, and stick on hair? I think I will put this movie on my “avoid at all costs” list.
Also, how is it possible to muck up the perfect camel hair coat with pink ruffles and pit stains, and think it is an improvement?
Re: language, I imagine she’s a bit like Charlotte Gainsbourg–raised in two countries from a young age, and speaking both languages perfectly. It’s a little jarring to hear Gainsbourg switch back and forth, she speaks both totally like a native.
What the heck did I just watch? Is it a crime caper? A teen flick? A parody? A…horror? movie? And what the hell does yoga have to do with any of it?
I’m so confused.
It doesn’t look terrible. It looks like every teen comedy made in the last decade.
She looks ten seconds away from throwing a massive temper tantrum in these photos.
Actually Soko IS the lead in The Dancer.
Wtf…I guess some kids will like it, but why start your career with such a bad/stupid movie?
I don’t even get the film – what a complete mess. I can see it becoming a cult movie 20 years later though like so many weird flicks do.
In pictures Lily looks so much like her mom, but when she’s moving and talking she reminds me so much of her dad. She’s like a mini-Johnny. She’s cute in the trailer IMO.
I just keep seeing Natalie Portman
i think she is just stunning. That is all.
Ah she’s just like me language wise. I speak perfect English and French too.
She is cute.
She’s also in Planetarium, which is supposed to be a great movie, lots of hype. She plays Natalie Portman’s little sister, Natalie chose her.
