Will Amber Heard return to Aquaman 2 after defamation trial? Here’s what we know

msn.com:

Amber Heard from Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom officially reached its target of 4. 5 million signatures this week. Two days after a jury ruled in favour of Johnny Depp in the couple’s highly publicised defamation trial, the petition’s target has been bumped to 6 million signatures.

Fluctuations in the size of Heard’s role in the forthcoming DC sequel have been the subject of persistent rumours, but they also became a topic of contested testimony in the Depp-Heard trial, which concluded on 2 June.

Heard said on the stand that her Aquaman 2 role was significantly pared down after her ex-husband’s team called her abuse claims a “hoax”. “I fought really hard to stay in the movie.

They didn’t want to include me in the film,” she testified. According to one unconfirmed Hollywood report, Heard appears for less than 10 minutes of the movie’s final cut.
