Johnny Depp turned up ‘drunk’ and ‘stinking of booze’ to the London premiere of his new film Murder On The Orient Express

JOHNNY DEPP returned to London for the Murder On The Orient Express premiere on Thursday.

And judging by the looks he got from his fellow cast members, the Hollywood star may have enjoyed a few drinks on the way down.

Johnny appeared a little bit worse for wear on the red carpet at the Royal Albert Hall and allegedly reeked of booze while mixing with co-stars including DAME JUDI DENCH, PENELOPE CRUZ and director KENNETH BRANAGH.

Snaps of his personal security man Jerry Judge having to practically hold him up only added to the impression he was having a big night out.

Indeed, Johnny’s partying started the previous evening at London club The Box.

A movie source said: “Johnny was having big old night and was told off for smoking three times while inside.

“He was annoyed people were staring at him too.

“But on the night of the premiere, he was in a strange mood and everyone thought he’d been drinking.

He was lamenting his split from AMBER HEARD so he’s clearly still not over the issues of the previous couple of years.

“You can see why there are still some serious fears about his wellbeing.”

Johnny split from Amber last May shortly before she accused him of domestic abuse.

He decided against doing any press and missed the after-party too, telling his fellow co-stars and film bosses that there were “two hot blondes” he had to see before making a swift exit.

Given how badly his most recent films have flopped, perhaps he’s waiting to see the box office results before celebrating.

The X Factor judge was seen enjoying a night in London with ASHLEY ROBERTS and KIMBERLY WYATT.

In true girlband style, they made sure to wear matching outfits as they left the Mayfair venue arm-in-arm.

Last month I told how the group will perform together next year, inset – the first shows since their 2010 split.

They have set up a website, PCD Reunion, to keep fans in the loop with the comeback. It’s going to be huge.

The former Gavin & Stacey actor told how he used to go on the pull with his The History Boys co-star DOMINIC COOPER ­during a stint on Broadway in 2006.

James who tied the knot with TV producer Julia Carey in 2012, said: “There’s a high density of (a) dancers and (b) gay men.

“So if you’re young, straight, English and in the hottest play in New York City, you’re gonna get laid. That’s it!

“I’d basically pick up the women Dominic didn’t want, but I was more than happy with that.”

Smithy would be proud of you, James.
