Johnny Depp's Ankle Injury Puts Hollywood Vampires Show On Hold

Fans of actor Johnny Depp had been bracing themselves for his band Hollywood Vampires tour. However, the actor recently announced that he has suffered a fractured ankle, forcing him to hold his upcoming performances in New Hampshire, Boston, and New York. Edward Scissorhands actor shared the unfortunate news with his fans on his Instagram handle, expressing his sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused by his injury. In a heartfelt statement, Depp revealed, “Dear friends, I am sorry to say that I have fractured my ankle, which is a drag! It began as a hairline break but somewhere between Cannes and Royal Albert Hall, it got worse rather than better.” The actor’s initial optimism about the injury improving was dashed as it took a turn for the worse, leading several medical professionals to strongly advise him to refrain from any activity for the time being.

Hollywood Vampires also shared the announcement on their official Twitter handle. They shared that “All tickets will be honoured for the new dates.”
