Amber Heard’s spokesperson responds after an insider claimed she was cut by Aquaman 2

Well, that was fast! Earlier today, it was claimed that Amber Heard had been removed from aquaman and the lost kingdomsomething that has been promoted in recent years in a petition started after Johnny Depp, Heard’s ex-husband, split from fantastic beasts film cycle Now, the actress’s rep has responded to claims that Heard will no longer be involved in the next DC movie.

While the original report stated that Warner Bros. had decided to hire a new actress to play the role of Mera during aquaman and the lost kingdom“He resumed,” Heard’s spokesperson said TMZ that there is no truth in this rumor and that his client will continue to play Mera in the DC Extended Universe. As this individual said:

So, according to Amber Heard’s camp, nothing has changed with the actress’s involvement in aquaman and the lost kingdom. TMZ had no news of Warner Bros. Pictures prior to publishing their article, so there is no official statement from the studio to release on this. However, considering that acquaman 2 finished principal photography in January, although more shots are planned, removing Heard from the film so late in the game would be a weird move.

That said, even ignoring the request to let Amber Heard out aquaman and the lost kingdom (which recently exceeded 4.5 million signatures), the redesign of Mera has been presented. During the libel lawsuit between Heard and Johnny Depp, the former’s agent, Jessica Kovacevic, claimed that Warner Bros. was considering hiring a new actress to play the role of Mera in the film. water man sequel, apparently due to Heard’s lack of chemistry with Jason Momoa. Eventually, however, the studio brought Heard back for another round of DCEU action, and as this spokesperson made clear, he’ll still be around for the sequel.

However, assuming Amber Heard is actually featured in the final cut of aquaman and the lost kingdomdon’t expect to see many, at least compared to the first one water man movie. Heard testified during the trial that her role in The lost kingdom it has been shortened, and while we still don’t know exactly how long it will have on the Mera screen, it was previously said to be under 10 minutes. However, hiring a new actress to play Mera would be a drastic and costly step, as you would pay her replacement a significant sum in addition to what Heard paid.

Anyway, for now, Gossipify will continue to deliver news on aquaman and the lost kingdom as we get closer to its release on March 17, 2023. If you want to stream the former water man movie, you can do it with an HBO Max membership.
