A petition to remove Amber Heard from ‘Aquaman 2’ in which she stars as the titular hero’s love interest, MERA, has so far reached over 2.3million signatures as she faces her former husband Johnny Depp in court.
The 58 year old Depp had brought $50million defamation lawsuit after claiming Heard’s accusations of abuse against him were false.
The trial, which has been going on for 12 days, is expected to last around seven weeks, after DEPP alleged that Heard lied about being a victim of domestic abuse in their 15-months marriage and implied he was the abuser in a 2018 Washington Post about domestic violence.
The DC sequel, directed by James Wan, wrapped filming in January and is set for release in March 2023, but a petition set up by fans to have Amber Heard removed from the movie had topped 2.3million signatures of its 3million goal.
The organizers of Aquaman 2 claimed that Heard ‘has systematically crusaded to ruin Depp in Hollywood’ since the couple divorced in 2017.
