Johnny Depp made a surprise appearance at San Diego Comic-Con, showing up fully dressed as Ebenezer Scrooge to promote his upcoming holiday film, "Ebenezer: A Christmas Carol," directed by Ti West. Paramount transformed part of San Diego's Gaslamp District into a Victorian Christmas village, where Depp appeared in character, greeting fans with Scrooge's trademark grumpiness and even ending the appearance with a quiet "Humbug." The crowd, which had gathered for more than an hour, cheered Depp throughout the stunt, with many shouting, "We love you!" He never broke character as actors portraying Victorian townspeople interacted with him, including one asking Scrooge for fair wages—earning only a grumble in return. "Ebenezer: A Christmas Carol" is scheduled to arrive in theaters on November 13.
