Contrary to another witness' testimony, a Warner Brothers executive made his own court statements saying that Johnny Depp's claims of Amber Heard fabricating her domestic violence allegations did not affect her casting in Aquaman 2.
Seeing as Heard's legal team has recently rested their case without calling Depp to the stand, it seems that a jury's decision in his $50 million defamation lawsuit and her $100 million countersuit is getting closer by the day.
And while there are many facts about the case that are hotly in dispute, one factor that has become particularly relevant in the latter days of the trial concerns whether Heard ruined Depp's career or vice versa.
Although Depp maintained that Heard's abuse allegations resulted in Disney blocking him from reprising his role as Captain Jack Sparrow, an entertainment industry consultant recently claimed that Depp's attorney jeopardized Heard's role in Aquaman 2 by framing her allegations as a "hoax."
But while one Warner Bros. executive agreed that Heard's ability to reprise her role as Mera wasn't a certainty, he argued that this was the case for reasons completely unrelated to Depp.
