Amber
Heard
recently
opened
up
about
losing
the
defamation
case
against
ex-husband
Johnny
Depp.
Meanwhile,
a
new
report
has
claimed
that
the
court's
verdict
has
also
led
the
actress
to
lose
her
role
in
Aquaman
and
the
Lost
Kingdom.
Earlier,
netizens
had
filed
a
petition
to
get
the
actress
axed
from
Aquaman
2
however,
the
reports
are
not
official.
Just
Jared
claimed
that
the
actress'
role
in
the
Warner
Bros.
film
has
indeed
been
cut
and
that
her
character
Mera
will
be
recast.
It
added
that
Amber
has
not
been
cut
down
completely
from
the
upcoming
film,
but
her
screen
time
has
been
reduced.
A
source
close
to
the
Aquaman
production
was
quoted
in
the
report
as
saying,
"Amber
has
not
been
completely
cut
from
the
film.
She
still
has
a
small
role."
Meanwhile,
Amber's
spokesperson
dismissed
the
rumours
while
talking
to
Variety.
"The
rumour
mill
continues
as
it
has
from
day
one
--
inaccurate,
insensitive
and
slightly
insane," the
statement
said.
Amber's
team
also
denied
the
claims
to
TMZ
and
said
that
the
"false
rumour
was
born
out
of
post-trial
vitriol
for
Amber".
Amber
first
made
an
appearance
as
Mera
in
Aquaman
released
in
2018
as
the
superhero's
love
interest.
She
later
also
appeared
in
Justice
League
and
the
Zack
Snyder's
Justice
League.
Reportedly,
Mera
in
the
Aquaman
2
will
be
seen
giving
birth
to
the
superhero's
baby
and
remain
behind
the
scene
for
most
of
the
plot.
Aquaman
2
also
known
as
Aquaman
and
The
Lost
Kingdom,
is
slated
to
hit
the
theatres
on
March
17,
2023.
The
Superhero
film
is

Wan
and
stars
Jason
Momoa,
Nicole
Kidman,
William
Defoe
along
with

Bros.

Johnny
Depp
to
step
back
from
his
role
as
Gellert
Grindelwald
from
the
Harry
Potter
spin-off
Fantastic
Beasts
series,
due
to
the
allegations
against
him.
