LOS ANGELES - An online petition to have actress Amber Heard, the ex-wife of actor Johnny Depp, removed from the upcoming Aquaman sequel has been gathering steam.
The long-standing Change.org petition, which was started in 2020, has seen the number of signatures reach 2.9 million as of Monday , nearing its goal of three million.a defamation case that began in April. The 58-year-old Pirates Of The Caribbean actor is suing Heard, 36, for US$50 million over a column she wrote for The Washington Post in December 2018 in which she described herself as a"public figure representing domestic abuse". Heard has counter-sued for US$100 million, saying Depp smeared her by calling her a liar.
As juicy details from their marriage were made public, the number of signatures went up by one million over the past week, even though filming had already wrapped on Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom in January. Heard, who had a meaty part as Princess Mera in the 2018 hit Aquaman movie opposite Jason Momoa, reprises her role as Aquaman's love interest in the upcoming sequel, due out in March 2023.
