It appears that Amber Heard's role as Mera in the DC Extended Universe is in jeopardy.
According to a fan petition on Change.org, more than 2.1 million people have signed on to remove Heard from the Aquaman films following the controversial issues that have come to light during Johnny Depp's trial. The petition cites the "many incidents of domestic abuse" that Johnny Depp suffered from his former wife, Amber Heard, as the biggest reason for the removal. The petition also adds Heard's arrest in 2009 for reports of domestic abuse against Tasya Van Ree, saying that it demonstrates "a repeated pattern of abuse by Amber Heard.""
The ongoing $50 million defamation lawsuit in Virginia comes almost two years after Depp lost a libel case filed against The Sun for labeling him as a "wife beater". Depp has since lost several roles in blockbuster films, including Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore, where he was replaced by Mads Mikkelsen.
