Katherine Jenkins revealed the ‘daunting experience’ she had while being directed by her husband Andrew Levitas for the movie, Minamata.
The opera singer, 43, said working together overall ‘went quite well’ as she chatted on The Jonathan Ross Show, Christmas Special, set to air on Christmas Eve (December 24).
The Welsh mezzo-soprano told the host that during filming, she found herself in a scene with Johnny Depp and Bill Nighy.
Minamata is a 2020 biographical drama film set in 1971, which sees photographer W. Eugene Smith travel to a city in Japan ravaged by mercury poisoning.
Katherine said: ‘I sort of got talked into the role. I don’t have much experience of doing things like that.

‘I found myself in a scene with Johnny Depp and Bill Nighy, which was quite daunting. But they were very patient and encouraging.
‘I hadn’t seen him [my husband] in that sort of situation so it was amazing to see what he does and see how much he loves it.
‘Obviously went quite well as we started a business together this year. We clearly like working together.’
This is not the first time they have worked together as they are both co-owners of their gin company, Cygnet Welsh Dry Gin.
Katherine added: ‘We have a gin company. We’re both creatives.
‘We don’t always agree and we don’t always have to agree, but there’s quite often a time when we’ll be on a board call and I realise it sounds like we’re having a domestic and everybody else is like, “OK, we’ll pick this up later”…’.
She was joined on the famous couch by Claudia Schiffer, Willem Dafoe, Ariana DeBose, Kevin Bridges, Romesh Ranganathan and Boy George.
Katherine and Andrew, 46, celebrated their ninth wedding anniversary in September.

She took to Instagram to share sweet snaps with her husband as she reflected on her relationship.
The duo tied the knot back in 2014 at Hampton Court Palace and the mezzo-soprano wore a traditional white gown by Suzanne Neville.
The American artist and Katherine share two children together Aaliyah Reign, seven, and Xander Robert, four.
Katherine said in her post: ‘9 years ago I followed my heart and it turned out to be my best decision to date.
‘The number 9 represents patience, harmony, friendship, spirituality, unity, strength and completion.
‘All words I understand, all words that reflect our marriage. Happy 9th Anniversary my love! @andrewlevitas #marriage #wedding #weddinganniversary #nine #katherinejenkins #andrewlevitas.’
The album featured a series of loved-up snaps of the pair as they enjoyed holidays together and shared special moments.
Katherine and Andrew had been dating for one year and were engaged for five months when they tied the knot.
Their first public appearance was when Andrew accompanied Katherine to collect her OBE from Buckingham Palace.
She was previously engaged to TV presenter Gethin Jones in February 2011, but they announced on December, 30, 2011 that they were no longer together.
The Jonathan Ross Show Christmas Special streams on Christmas Eve on ITX from 9am and airs on ITV1 at 10.15pm.
