Depp will also receive Kustendorf's "Award for Future Movies," organisers said.
French comic book author and director, Iranian-born Marjane Satrapi will preside a three-member international jury which will award Golden, Silver and Bronze Egg to the best of 28 films from 18 countries.
The festival runs until January 19.
The Bosnian-born director has won two Golden Palm awards at the Cannes film festival for "Underground" (1995) and "When Father Was Away on Business" (1985).
His latest movie, "Promise Me This" has flopped at the box office despite a Golden Palm nomination.
Kusturica recently announced he will make film about Mexico's 19th-century bandit-turned-revolutionary Pancho Villa, to be played by Depp.
