Amber Heard blames Johnny Depp for her reduced role in ‘Aquaman 2’

The rumors were true. Warner Bros. has reduced the presence of Amber Heard in ‘Aquaman 2’ and, as his character did in Eduardo Scissorhands, the actress accuses Johnny Depp of having cut his role in the second installment from the DC Comics film starring Jason Momoa.

In this way, and after receiving pressure from fans (who have even submitted a petition on Change.org to remove Heard from ‘Aquaman 2’ and who has exceeded 4 million signatures), the producer would have decided to take part in the ongoing legal battle that Heard maintains with her ex-husband Johnny Depp and his accusations of mutual abuse and would have almost completely eliminated Mera, her character.

The actress has testified this week and has stated his fight to continue in the film and how Warner Bros.responsible for it, would have filmed a greatly reduced version of his role who, beyond being the romantic interest of Arthur Curry (Momoa), represents a key character to understand the complexity of ‘Aquaman’ and was the co-star of the first installment.

depending on the medium hollywoodreporter, the star of films such as ‘Machete Kills’ and John Carpenter’s ‘Locked Up’, has stated: “They gave me a script, and then they gave me new versions of the script in which they had removed scenes that had action, that showed my character and another character – without giving away any spoilers – two characters who were fighting each other,” said Heard. “They basically took a bunch of my paper away. They just took a bunch away.”

Last March, Warner and DC changed their release schedule and delayed movies like ‘Black Adam’ (October 2022), ‘Shazam! Fury of the Gods’ (December 2022), ‘The Flash’ (June 2023) and ‘Aquaman 2’ itself, which, in principle, will be released under the orders of James Wan next year, specifically on March 17, 2023 .
