Depp: 'I Can't Stay In Riot-Ravaged France'

  • 18 November 2005

Hollywood star [Johnny Depp](https://www.contactmusic.com/johnny-depp) is so shocked by the riots raging through France, he's considering abandoning his home in the country.

The [Finding Neverland](https://www.contactmusic.com/finding-neverland) heart-throb moved to Europe when life in Los Angeles became too violent.

He has since divided time between the two continents - but he fears France will be scarred permanently by the current troubles.

He says, "It's insane, that setting cars on fire is the new strike.

"I went there (to France) to live because it seemed so simple.

"Now it's anything but. I don't know how they'll recover from this."
