However, after Depp's lawyer, Adam Waldman, called Heard's claims of abuse a «hoax,» Arnold claims that Heard suffered significant career damage.Arnold further claims that Heard's salary for the second movie could have been higher if not for the statements made by Waldman, and she has not been involved in the promotion for the new film — which ultimately hurts her career as well.Arnold claims that Momoa was able to renegotiate his salary for the second film to $15 million, up from $3 million which he got for the first, but Heard never got a similar opportunity for that sort of financial bump.
