Johnny Depp proved that he still has a legion of fans — with some willing to spend thousands to catch a glimpse of the actor in court — and now one fortunate Depphead has the chance to take house the bladed glove worn through the superstar in his 1990 smash-hit, Edward Scissorhands. The glove, which is predicted to sell for $50,000, is headed to auction just days after Depp’s ex-wife, Amber Heard, derided him as someone who “satisfied the arena he had scissors for arms.”
Depp sported the iconic movie prop — set to hit the auction block sometime next week — throughout an iconic scene within the delusion romance novel during which his character grew to become an ice angel into a snow flurry for Kim, performed through Winona Ryder.
The long run owner of the bladed glove might have the alternative to recreate the vintage scene, despite the fact that it will not be encouraged, as the blades on the prop are real — at least according to the auctioneer, Propstore.
“The hand-fabricated steel blades in this hand were initially created as mould masters; the molds made out of them have been used to produce the urethane blades Depp wore during the movie,” an outline of the product reads. “The practical SFX workforce then took the metal blades and constructed them onto the pole-rig for use in insert pictures of the blades in fact cutting things similar to ice.”
The auctioneer’s website expects the piece to sell for up to $50,000. So far, the intimidating glove has won 3 bids, with the easiest coming in at $20,000. The bladed glove, which is said to have exhibited intensive put on and aging, features a letter of authenticity from Richard Landon, the film's mechanical division coordinator.
The auction comes on the heels of the Pirates of the Caribbean celebrity's large courtroom win towards his ex-wife, wherein a jury ordered Heard to pay the actor $10 million in compensatory damages and $5 million in punitive damages. However, a judge later lowered the punitive damages to $350,000 according to Virginia law.
During a up to date sit-down interview with NBC’s Savannah Guthrie, Heard asserted that the Jury witnessed a performance through a“fantastic actor” who “convinced the world he had scissors for fingers.”
