The defamation trial between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard has been hastily decided to be made into a movie by the streaming service Tubi.
Johnny Depp and Amber Heard first met while filming the 2011 movie The Rum Diary; they married in 2015 but divorced in 2017, ending their marriage; in 2018, through an op-ed in The Washington Post, Amber revealed Johnny’s accusations of domestic violence without directly mentioning it, and Johnny claimed that it had negatively impacted his career. Johnny was forced out of the “Fantastic Beasts” franchise and prevented from returning to his most famous role, Captain Jack Sparrow in the “Pirates of the Caribbean” films.

Amber, on the other hand, sought $100 million in damages, claiming that she was the one being treated unfairly. the trial between the two quickly became a hot topic, with the trial being reported daily on television and streamed online. Ultimately, Johnny was awarded $15 million, later reduced to $10 million by the jury’s decision, and Amber received $2 million. The trial ended only a few months ago, but a movie about it is already being fast-tracked with a cast in place.
