Johnny Depp vs Amber Heard plus The Sun.
Discussion
This verdict is certainly not going to help his future career.
He has already been told that he isn't returning to the Pirates of the Caribbean series, and he has just had a new film 'City of Lies" scrapped before it reaches cinemas due to this court case.

It's gone quiet for a while but didnt the published testimony portray it the other way round?

What a mess.
Doesn't help him and his career.
Doesn't help victims on either side.
Almost better to suck it up..which is terrible .
They both look as mad as a bag of frogs!
Pretty much this.Doesn't help him and his career.

They both come out of it looking like violent nutters.
Some of the text messages Depp sent to his friends are off the scale though, and if anyone hires him in the future, I will be surprised.
Just one example included him texting actor Paul Bettany, plotting to drown and burn her as a witch and “f**k her burnt corpse afterwards to make sure she’s dead”.
I've been "following" the story as a detraction from this Covid crap.
I have to be honest from the recordings I've heard Amber really does sound like a proper nut job.
The way she acts and carries herself just seems to make everything Johnny says seem all the more true.
Granted, he has also acted badly at times but I don't believe he's abused her at all in any way.
Problem is, now he officially looks like an abuser, and has screwed up his career in the future.

As the son of an abusive narcissistic 
, I have less time for Amber Heard than I do my egg donor...
...but is Johnny’s career really ended by this? At his age and with the covid freeze, he wasn’t going to be swashbuckling his way through anything - if you’ve seen the frail state of him stood on the court steps. I would’ve thought he can do indie films that he likes with people he likes and it’ll not affect him in the slightest.
I do think the inevitable rage that will be induced by her team - now that she has fire in her eyes by being “proved right” by the court - will be horrific for all involved except the lawyers.

Sounds so silly that you couldn't really believe he meant it. It's just words coming from a fella whose made his living being someone else, more often than not that character has been a fantastical or leftfield type.They both come out of it looking like violent nutters.

Hunter S Thompson.
Jack Sparrow.
Edward Scissorhands.
Willy Wonka!
There is a bit of all of them in him.
The judge's closing statement does sort of highlight how this was unlikely to going to go any other way
On the presented evidence it's likely he's laid hands on her at some point. She might be an absolute fking not job who was provoking it, but to have the verdict any other way would have been painted as blaming a victim for their own domestic abuse, or seen as empowering men to slap their spouses around if they're too much of a pain in the arse
My opinion is that they're both nutters, who is worse is probably down to each person's individual interpretation of what's been reported

"He has also acted badly at times"? Yes, he's just lost a court case in the Royal Courts of Justice about being a "wife beater". Did you see that?I have to be honest from the recordings I've heard Amber really does sound like a proper nut job.

Bill Murray basically said that he absorbed some of HST's darkness after spending time with him to portray him, it makes you wonder if Jonny Depp might have suffered the same fate. Again, whether it's a real darkness or just elaborately worded dark humour is a probably a point of view

A good friend of mine and I text each other 'out there' stuff like this all the time, trying to outdo each other at the level of depravity we can sink to, we find it amusing and almost therapeutic. If I ever get wrongly accused of a serious crime and they sift through my phone history, I could see myself being on a bit of a sticky wicket trying to explain my way out of it.(Un)luckily I'm not a Hollywood star so no one gives a s
t about me or my warped sense of humour. It's easy to see how exchanges between close friends can be taken completely out of context.

Same. It boggles my mind that anyone would think such texts were anything other than schoolboy/ gallows humour.
