In today’s trial, Johnny Depp’s agent confirmed that he lost his Disney contract due to Amber Heard’s op-ed, which fabricated stories about his personal life. Disney decided not to work with Johnny anymore on Pirates 6 or any other movie, as Disney had withdrawn from depth due to his scandals. Depp’s career was crumbling before the eyes of the public.
Some speculated that Depp was taking a break from screens or due to Covet’s effect in the film industry. However, his agent clarified that Covet had affected every film production at the time, but not Johnny.
Depp’s agent was surprised when Amber made an impactful Uphead claiming Johnny was her abuser, and that she had seen firsthand how society protected men accused of abuse. This article was catastrophic for Johnny, as it was directly from the victim herself, not from journalists or observers. From December 2018 to October 2020, Johnny was never offered roles in studio films, and this was disappointing for an incredible and passionate actor.
Minamota Depp’s film, which was starting a month after Amber’s Uphead release, went through financial troubles, cutting down the budget and even Johnny’s fees due to the negative effect Amber Zeped had on the movie. The trial revealed that Amber’s Uphead destroyed Johnny’s image and career, leading to his final movie failing and no other film being offered. When Disney dropped Depp, his agent tried reaching out to them, but they were unsuccessful in saving Pirates for Johnny.
In conclusion, Amber Heard’s op-ed and the Covet case have had a significant impact on Johnny Depp’s career and career.
