Lily-Rose Depp may have grown up surrounded by cinema, but one of her earliest film memories wasn\u2019t filled with wonder \u2014 it was heartbreak.<\/span><\/p>\n

In a recent interview with Harper\u2019s Bazaar UK<\/em>, the 25-year-old actress revealed that watching her father, Johnny Depp, in Edward Scissorhands<\/em> as a toddler left a lasting emotional mark.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI was traumatised watching it at three \u2014 not because I thought he was scary, but because everyone was being so mean to him, and I got really upset,\u201d<\/strong> she shared.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Growing Up in a Cinematic Household<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

The daughter of Johnny Depp and French artist Vanessa Paradis, Lily-Rose was raised between two countries and two creative worlds. Despite her lineage, she insists that she and her father approach acting very differently.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWe\u2019re very different actors,\u201d<\/strong> she said. \u201cBut you\u2019re a product of your environment, and it\u2019s a world I\u2019ve always been very interested in.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Her father is widely known for his work in gothic and fantasy cinema \u2014 from Sleepy Hollow<\/em> to Sweeney Todd<\/em> \u2014 genres that Lily-Rose admits she is naturally drawn to as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2018Nosferatu\u2019 and the Pursuit of \u201cMeaty\u201d Roles<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Lily-Rose is set to star as Ellen Hutter in Robert Eggers\u2019 upcoming gothic horror Nosferatu<\/em>, a reimagining of the 1922 German Expressionist classic. She describes the experience as one of the most demanding \u2014 and rewarding \u2014 of her career.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cIt was intimidating and daunting, but an incredible privilege,\u201d<\/strong> she said. \u201cIt\u2019s the most technical set I\u2019ve ever been on \u2014 almost like going to film school.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The film features an all-star cast including Bill Skarsg\u00e5rd, Nicholas Hoult, Willem Dafoe, and Aaron Taylor-Johnson, placing Lily-Rose in the heart of a high-profile ensemble.<\/span><\/p>\n

As an actor, she says she craves roles that push her emotionally.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI\u2019m interested in the darker underbelly of things. You hope your role is as meaty as possible \u2014 so you have something real to dive into.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

On Love, Privacy, and Finding Happiness<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

While Lily-Rose has spent much of her life in the public eye, she remains selective about what she shares. Speaking briefly about her relationship with musician 070 Shake (Danielle Balbuena), she offered a rare moment of openness.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI\u2019m super in love and super happy,\u201d<\/strong> she said. \u201cI\u2019ve always been private, but it\u2019s hard not to talk about her because I\u2019m so happy.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

A Career on Her Own Terms<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

From The King<\/em> to HBO\u2019s The Idol<\/em>, Lily-Rose Depp continues to carve out a unique path in Hollywood \u2014 one rooted in artistic curiosity rather than legacy.<\/span><\/p>\n

As she steps into darker, more complex roles, she makes it clear that while she comes from cinematic royalty, her ambition is entirely her own.<\/span><\/p>\n
