Aquaman 2 Petition: Is Amber Heard axed from Aquaman 2?

A petition by fans to get Amber Heard removed from Aquaman has generated another million signatures.

In 2020, an online petition was started calling for Amber Heard to be dropped from the forthcoming sequel. Since Johnny Depp’s trial against her began last month, the petition began gaining further traction online.

By May 3, it has generated three million signatures and, by May 17, the number was nearing 4.5 million.

Amber Heard initially condemned the campaign to have her removed from the film and denied that the outcome of the Depp libel case had any impact on her franchise. Heard has also confirmed that her situation with Depp had impacted her role in the movie.
