After firing Johnny Depp, could Warner give in to the pressure and fire Amber Heard from Aquaman 2? We take stock!

The DCEU is once again in turmoil! Definitely, the superhero universe of the Warner Bros. accumulates controversy, whether in front of or behind the camera. Recently, Ray Fisher (Cyborg) confided in Joss Whedon's racism during the reshoots of Justice League . This week, it is the result of the trial between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard which reignited the debate on their presence within the franchises of Fantastic Beasts and Aquaman . Regarding the interpreter of Grindelwald, the studios have already ruled on his fate, since they asked the actor to resign! On the other hand, the actress did not suffer the same sanction, since she recently confirmed that she will indeed take over the role of Mera in the next adventures of Arthur Curry (Jason Momoa).

In reaction, fans have started a petition to have Amber Heard fired from Aquaman 2 , and it is breaking records ! After firing Johnny Depp, the Warner Bros. could she give in to the pressure and fire her ex-wife? At first glance, producers appear to be uncompromising decision-makers who are not easily swayed. It is even more obvious concerning them, since they rarely react to the media scandals generated by their actors.

Despite the bad buzz that resulted on social networks and in the press, the studios did not not wished to take a position on this subject.

A tactic that paid off, since the general public ended up forgetting the actor's gesture, notwithstanding the fact that it was all the same an attempt to strangle a fan … Internet users are regularly scandalized by the attitude of Hollywood stars , but one controversy sweeping away another, they rarely win their case with the studios. The start of filming of Aquaman 2 is scheduled for next year, it is hard to imagine the Warner Bros. replace 4271697 Amber Heard by another actress at the last moment . Of course, you can give us the example of the Justice League of Zack Snyder, whose “faithful”, thanks to their pugnacity, will be able to discover the version original. But we must not lose sight of the fact that this is the result of a two-year campaign!
