Lily-Rose Depp Channels a Young Kate Moss in i-D No. 372, Spring 2023 by Karim Sadli
/Actor Lily-Rose Depp channels a young Kate Moss, as Depp prepares to step into a new TV show from the creators of ‘Euphoria’. Depp has a starring role in HBO’s upcoming series ‘The Idol’, created by Sam Levinson and The Weeknd.
She will play the starring role of Jocelyn, an aspiring pop star, with The Weeknd — Abel Tesfaye — playing her love interest in his first acting role. "I just don’t think that you could give an actress a greater gift than a role like this,” Depp tells Frank.
The daughter of Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis will also be filming Robert Eggers’ interpretation of ‘Nosferatu’ as well as ‘The Governesses’, a film being produced byA24.
As Alex Frank concludes in his interview with Depp for i-D’s The Timeless Issue, No. 372, Spring 2023, “there is nothing so gratifying as meeting a creative person right as they’re hitting their stride.”

Lily-Rose Depp explains that of course she studied the Britneys and Beyoncés of the world. But she also dug more deeply into Lauren Bacall and Gene Tierney, esplaining:
“They did not walk into a room and descend to anybody else’s level to try and make them feel comfortable. They almost had this confidence in the discomfort that they could provoke in people. A thing of, ‘This is who I am, and I’m not going to change.’”
