Asked whether
he was engaged, the "Pirates of the Caribbean" star told The Associated
Press: "The fact that I'm wearing a chick's ring on my finger is
probably a dead giveaway. Not very subtle." He laughed as he lifted up
his left hand and displayed a single diamond on a band around his ring
finger.
His comments follow
months of unconfirmed reports of his engagement to actress Heard, 27,
who starred alongside Kevin Costner in "3 Days to Kill" released in the
U.S. earlier this year.
Depp and Heard starred together in "The Rum Diary," filmed in Puerto Rico in 2009.
In 2012, Depp split with his partner of 14 years, French model-singer Vanessa Paradis. They have two children.
In
a trademark off-the-wall comment, Depp said: "I think that I would be
better at making women's shoes than I would be at wedding planning, I
can't plan anything. I'm really bad at that stuff."
"It's one of those films that one
person is forced to make a choice in an instant, when your loved one is
dying and you have a split-second decision if you have the ability to
upload their consciousness into a computer, would you do that? It's
quite a strange decision to make but for love I think we would all do
it."
"Transcendence" comes out
in China on April 18 — the same day as the U.S. release. China is the
only country currently where "Transcendence" will be showing in 3-D — a
format popular with Chinese audiences.
China
is also the only international stop Depp is making as part of the
movie's promotion tour, illustrating the growing attention Hollywood is
paying to the country that now has the world's second-biggest box office
after the United States.
Last
Monday, Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson and Samuel L. Jackson promoted
"Captain America: The Winter Soldier" in Beijing, followed the next day
by "The Amazing Spider-Man 2" stars Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone and
Jamie Foxx.
"With regard to
Hollywood, China is quite a large market, certainly," said Depp, who was
on his first visit to China. "I think there will be a lot more films
coming here, a lot more people coming here and continuing the trend."
