A spokesperson for Amber Heard has denied reports that the actor has been cut from the Aquaman sequel, in the aftermath of the very public defamation trial brought against her by her ex-husband, Johnny Depp.
Heard was set to reprise her role as Mera, Aquaman’s love interest, in the upcoming film Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom.
Heard previously played Mera in the first Aquaman film and in Justice League.
But on Tuesday, an anonymous “insider” told gossip website Just Jared that the role had been recast.
