Johnny Depp Calls Trump a 'Brat' After Spoofing GOP Candidate in Funny or Die Biopic [Video]
Donald Trump has added another far-famed celebrity to his growing list of critics. Hollywood A-lister Johhny Depp had something to say about the Republican presidential nomination frontrunner.
Depp Calls Trump a 'Brat'
Speaking in front of students at the Arizona State University on Saturday, March 12, 2016, the "Into the Woods" actor talked about his portrayal of Trump in a Funny or Die biopic about the life of the outspoken real estate billionaire. Depp called Trump a "brat."
"It's not just about being a rich kid or anything like that. I approached Donald Trump as what you kind of see in him when you really watch him. There's a pretense. There's something created about him in the sense of bullydom. But what he is, I believe, is a brat," said Depp to the delight of the crowd.
The Trump Biopic
The Emmy-award winning Funny or Die comedy website released the 50-minute film called "Donald Trump's The Art of the Deal" back in February and has since garnered more than 3 million views.
"Donald Trump has it all. Money, power, respect, and an Eastern European bride. But all his success didn't come for nothing," the plot from the Funny or Die website reads. "First, he inherited millions of dollars from his rich father, then he grabbed New York City by the balls. Now you can learn the art of negotiation, real estate, and high-quality brass in this illuminating made-for-TV special feature, Funny Or Die Presents Donald Trump's The Art Of The Deal: The Movie."
Apart from Depp, who played Trump in the biopic, the cast of "The Art of the Deal" film also includes Alfred Molina ("Little Men"), Robert Morse ("It's All About You"), Patton Oswalt ("Freaks of Nature"), Jack McBrayer ("30 Rock"), Henry Winkler ("The Waterboy") and Michaela Watkins ("They Came Together") who played Ivana Trump.
Alf also appeared in the film as well as Ron Howard for a cameo role participation. The biopic was directed by Jeremy Konner ("Drunk History").
Depp was not the first celebrity who called the GOP candidate names. Just recently, multiple Grammy-award winner John Legend engaged in a Twitter feud against Donald Trump Jr., wherein the singer and songwriter referred to the senior Trump as a "racist."
.@DonaldJTrumpJr I think they were protesting your racist father. This isn't complicated.

Here we go again. That can't be the answer for everything you don't like. That's why the country is so divided now! https://t.co/BFh3XNsl7F — Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) March 12, 2016
