<p>Actor Johnny Depp testified on Tuesday that he never struck his ex-wife Amber Heard and was challenging her accusations in a $50 million defamation case to correct the public`s perception and stand up for his children.<br />
<br />
Speaking softly and slowly for nearly three hours, Depp said in a Virginia courtroom that it was a "complete shock" about six years ago when Heard "made some quite heinous and disturbing" allegations that he became violent during their relationship.<br />
<br />
"Never did I myself reach the point of striking Ms. Heard in any way, nor have I ever struck any woman in my life," said Depp, who wore a dark suit with his hair in a ponytail.<br />
<br />
"I felt it my responsibility to stand up not only for myself in that instance but stand up for my children," the "Pirates of the Caribbean" star said. His two children from a previous relationship were in high school at the time.<br />
<br />
"It`s very strange when one day you’re Cinderella so to speak, and then in 0.6 seconds you’re Quasimodo," added Depp, who is set to return to the witness stand on Wednesday, when he is expected to face a cross-examination from Heard`s legal team.<br />
<br />
Depp, 58, alleges Heard, 35, defamed him when she penned a December 2018 opinion piece in the Washington Post about being a survivor of domestic abuse. He filed a $50 million lawsuit against Heard in 2018.<br />
<br />
The article never mentioned Depp by name, but Depp lawyer Benjamin Chew told jurors it was clear Heard was referencing the Hollywood leading man.<br />
<br />
Attorneys for Heard, also an actor, have argued she told the truth and that her opinion was protected as free speech under the US&nbsp;Constitution`s First Amendment. In opening arguments, Heard`s attorneys said Depp physically and sexually assaulted her while abusing drugs and alcohol.<br />
<br />
A state court judge in Fairfax County, Virginia, is overseeing the trial, which is in its second week and is expected to last for six weeks.<br />
<br />
On Tuesday, Depp`s lawyers asked him about his movie career and his early interactions with Heard on the set of 2011 film 'The Rum Diary.' Depp described her at that time as sweet, intelligent and funny.<br />
<br />
The actor also detailed his parents' tumultuous relationship.<br />
<br />
Depp said his parents frequently argued and his mother physically abused her children. Depp said his father never fought physically with his mother but punched a wall as many as three times, once breaking his hand. His father left the family when Depp was 15, the actor said.<br />
<br />
By that time, Depp had "done all the drugs I was aware of," he said. He said he became addicted to opiates after he was injured on the set of the fourth "Pirates" film but recovered from that dependency.<br />
<br />
Depp said Heard "grossly embellished" his substance use. "A lot of it is just plainly false," he said. "I think it was an easy target for her to hit."<br />
<br />
Heard watched the testimony with little expression while Depp spoke, occasionally tilting her head or jotting notes.<br />
<br />
Less than two years ago, Depp lost a libel case against The Sun, a British tabloid that labeled him a “wife beater." A London High Court judge ruled he had repeatedly assaulted Heard and put her in fear for her life.<br />
<br />
In the U.S. case, Depp and Heard both submitted long lists of potential witnesses they may call, including Heard’s ex-boyfriend and Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk and actor James Franco.<br />
<br />
Depp’s lawyers have said they filed the case in Fairfax County, outside the District of Columbia, because the Washington Post is printed at a facility there. The Washington Post is not a defendant in the case.<br />
<br />
The United States is a difficult forum for libel plaintiffs, especially public figures like Depp, who must prove by clear and convincing evidence that Heard knowingly made false claims.<br />
<br />
Heard, known for roles in 'Aquaman'&nbsp;and 'Justice League,'&nbsp;has brought her own libel claim against Depp, saying he smeared her by calling her a liar.<br />

Johnny Depp calls Amber Heard accusations 'heinous,' says he never struck ex-wife

<p>Hollywood actors Johnny Depp and ex-wife, actress Amber Heard are fighting a bitter court battle in Virginia, US. Depp filed a defamation case against Heard after she wrote an op-ed in the Washington Post claiming she had been a victim of domestic abuse.&nbsp;<br />

Johnny Depp-Amber Heard case:  Doctor recalls finding actor's severed finger on kitchen floor

<p>Things are getting dirty in the Amber Heard-Johnny Depp trial. The former couple is facing each other in court in the US and the ongoing trial has taken quite a dramatic turn.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
According to a report in Page Six, Amber's friend, British music journalist Eve Barlow was recently kicked out of the court.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Eve reportedly ran into trouble with the judge after she was found texting and live-tweeting the court proceedings from the front row of the courtroom- which is normally reserved for legal counsel.&nbsp;</p>

<p><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/hollywood/news-elon-musk-james-franco-and-others-may-testify-in-johnny-depp-amber-heard--470500">Elon Musk, James Franco and others may testify in Johnny Depp-Amber Heard case</a><br />
<br />
Eve allegedly pretended to be a part of Amber's legal team and even tried to intervene in Johnny's witness Gina Deuters testimony. Gina is the wife of Johnny’s longtime collaborator Stephen Deuters. Eve even tried to influence Amber's legal team to show the Judge that Gina was a 'compromised' withness by pointing out a social media post that the journalist claimed was recent. In reality, Gina had shared the post 2021, much before the couple's London trial against a British tabloid.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
When the court questioned Gina, she admitted to having seen videos of the trial prior to her testimony, which led to her dismissal from the court and her statement was struck from the record.</p>

<br />
Meanwhile, Johnny's legal team pushed for a motion to permanently bar Eve from the courtroom. According to court transcripts, Judge Azcarate said, “She was tweeting live from my courtroom … and I know the deputies took her out because she was texting. That’s against the court order. Ms Barlow is not coming back into the courtroom during this trial.”<br />

Things are getting dirty in the Amber Heard-Johnny Depp trial. The former couple is facing each other in court in the US and the ongoing trial has taken quite a dramatic turn. According to a report in Page Six, Amber's friend, British music journalist Eve Barlow was recently kicked out of the court. Eve reportedly ran into trouble with the judge after she was found texting and live-tweeting the court proceedings from the front row of the courtroom- which is normally reserved for legal counsel. Elon Musk, James Franco and others may testify in Johnny Depp-Amber Heard case Eve allegedly pretended to be a part of Amber's legal team and even tried to intervene in Johnny's witness Gina Deuters testimony. Gina is the wife of Johnny’s longtime collaborator Stephen Deuters. Eve even tried to influence Amber's legal team to show the Judge that Gina was a 'compromised' withness by pointing out a social media post that the journalist claimed was recent. In reality, Gina had shared the post 2021, much before the couple's London trial against a British tabloid. When the court questioned Gina, she admitted to having seen videos of the trial prior to her testimony, which led to her dismissal from the court and her statement was struck from the record.

According to court transcripts, Judge Azcarate said, “She was tweeting live from my courtroom … and I know the deputies took her out because she was texting. That’s against the court order. Ms Barlow is not coming back into the courtroom during this trial.” Johnny Depp filed a defamation case against former wife Amber Heard over an op-ed she wrote claiming she was a victim of domestic violence.

Johnny Depp became 'monster' on drugs and alcohol, court hears

<p>The latest chapter in Hollywood star Johnny Depp's legal battle with ex-wife Amber Heard kicked off on Monday as a US&nbsp;defamation trial began over allegations Heard made about domestic abuse.<br />
<br />
Depp, 58, has sued Heard for $50 million, saying she defamed him when she penned a 2018 opinion piece in the Washington Post about being a survivor of domestic abuse.<br />
<br />
The op-ed never mentioned Depp by name, but Depp's lawyers have said it was clear Heard was referencing him, and that the piece damaged his film career and reputation.<br />
<br />
Juror selection was completed on Monday and opening statements are slated to begin on Tuesday.<br />
<br />
Depp has denied all allegations of abuse, saying in his lawsuit that Heard's claims were an "elaborate hoax to generate positive publicity for Ms Heard and advance her career."<br />
<br />
Depp and Heard both submitted long lists of potential witnesses they could put on the stand.<br />
<br />
Heard’s list includes her ex-boyfriend and Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk, who she texted with about Depp. Also on the list of potential witnesses is actor James Franco, who Heard testified in the London case inquired about bruises on her face following an alleged abusive incident with Depp.<br />
<br />
Depp wants the Fairfax County jury to find that Heard knowingly made false claims.<br />
<br />
Heard, for her part, will argue that she is shielded, or "immune," from liability because her 2018 op-ed on domestic violence dealt with a matter of public concern.<br />
<br />
"I never named him. Rather, I wrote about the price women pay for speaking out against men in power. I continue to pay the price, but hopefully when this case concludes, I can move on and so can Johnny," Heard said in a statement released on Saturday.<br />
<br />
The Washington Post is not a defendant in the trial. Depp’s lawyers have said they filed the case in Fairfax County, outside the District of Columbia, because the newspaper is printed at a facility there. Heard unsuccessfully tried to transfer the case to Los Angeles, where she and Depp lived.<br />
<br />
Heard`s lawyers alleged "forum-shopping," saying Depp's attorneys sued in Virginia because they perceived it as a more favourable venue than California.<br />
<br />
California has a more strongly worded "anti-SLAPP law," a type of legal protection meant to shield journalists and others from frivolous lawsuits designed to silence them.<br />
<br />
The US&nbsp;trial comes less than two years after Depp lost a libel case against The Sun, a British tabloid that labeled him a “wife beater." A London High Court judge ruled he had repeatedly assaulted Heard and put her in fear for her life.<br />
<br />
The United States is a difficult forum for libel plaintiffs, especially public figures like Depp, who faces several hurdles in the Virginia case. Depp must prove by clear and convincing evidence that Heard knowingly made false claims.<br />
<br />
Under English defamation law, the person being sued has the burden of proving their claims were true.<br />
<br />
Depp and Heard met while making 'The Rum Diary'&nbsp;in 2011 and married four years later. Heard accused Depp of domestic abuse after filing for divorce in 2016.<br />
<br />
Depp ascended to Hollywood stardom in the 1990s with portrayals of loners and outsiders in cult classics such as John Waters` 'Cry-Baby'&nbsp;and Tim Burton's 'Edward Scissorhands.'<br />
<br />
He became a household name with the swashbuckling Disney franchise 'Pirates of the Caribbean,'&nbsp;playing fan favorite Jack Sparrow.<br />
<br />
Heard, 35, is known for her roles in 'Aquaman'&nbsp;and 'Justice League.'&nbsp;She has brought her own libel claim against Depp, saying he smeared her by calling her a liar.<br />
<br />
Heard`s counterclaim will be decided as part of the trial, which could last for six weeks. Heard is seeking $100 million in damages from Depp, according to court papers.<br />
<br />
In her evidence to the London High Court, Heard said Depp would turn into a jealous alter ego, “the monster”, after binging on drugs and alcohol and had threatened to kill her.<br />
<br />
She detailed 14 occasions of extreme violence when she said the actor choked, punched, slapped, head-butted, throttled and kicked her. The London judge accepting 12 of these accounts as true.<br />
<br />
Following the November 2020 ruling in the London libel trial, Depp was replaced with Danish actor Mads Mikkelsen in the third film in the<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/hollywood/news-fantastic-beasts-the-secrets-of-dumbledore-review-less-of-magic-more-about-greed-and-lost-love-469398"> 'Fantastic Beasts'</a>&nbsp;franchise, a spin-off from the 'Harry Potter' books and films.</p>

As the trial date for Amber Heard and Johnny Depp comes closer, the ‘Aquaman’ actress revealed that she plans to "go offline for the next few weeks" ahead of the court hearings. Scheduled for April 11, Amber Heard and Johnny Depp’s defamation trial will take place in Fairfax County, Virginia. In a statement, Amber said, “Johnny is suing me for an op-ed I wrote in the Washington Post, in which I recounted my experience of violence and domestic abuse.

Jason Mamoa-Amber Heard's 'Aquaman 2' inspired by a horror film: director

<p>Although he has lost his legal battle with his ex-wife Amber Heard in the United Kingdom that has reportedly caused problems in his acting career, Johnny Depp will now get a second libel trial to show he didn’t physically abuse her, reports confirm.</p>

<p><br />
On Tuesday, a Virginia judge reportedly ruled that the decision last November in Depp’s suit against the publisher of The Sun shouldn’t impact his second case against Heard over an opinion-editorial piece published in the Washington Post.</p>

<p><br />
Amber Heard is being sued in that latter case over a December 2018 column where had written, “I became a public figure representing domestic abuse, and I felt the full force of our culture’s wrath for women who speak out.”</p>

<p><br />
This suit in Virginia was expected to go to trial first, but owing to multiple delays, Depp’s U.K. case went on trail instead. &nbsp;<br />
In the U.K., the actor has sued over a news item that had labelled him a 'wife beater'. After a trial that lasted weeks, Judge Andrew Nicol found substantial truth to the article in The Sun, specifically with regards to 14 incidents that happened during the troubled marriage, reports said.</p>

<p><br />
The ruling, which Depp was unsuccessful in getting overturned through appeal, left him in the atypical position of arguing he didn’t get everything he wanted in the country, which has allegedly been the case for libel tourism since the burden of proof is on the defendant and not the complainant. Also, public figures needn’t show actual malice, says a report.</p>

<p><br />
Amber Heard, in turn, has argued that the Virginia court should recognize the U.K. court judgment, and since both actions centered on whether Depp was a domestic abuser, declare the matter already adjudicated.</p>

<p><br />
In an opinion on Tuesday, Fairfax County Chief Judge Penney Azcarate reportedly rejected Heard’s motion because of the lack of privity. While Heard may have argued that her interests were aligned with The Sun, the judge says those interests weren’t identical.</p>

<p><br />
"The Sun‘s interests were based on whether the statements the newspaper published were false," she has reportedly written. "(Heard’s) interests relate to whether the statements she published were false."</p>

<p><br />
In examining whether the U.S. and U.K. have judicial systems to the extent that Depp shouldn’t be in a state to re-litigate his claim of not being a domestic abuser, the judge later notes that Heard wasn’t a party in the U.K. case and wasn’t subject to the same discovery rules.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
"In fact, Defendant could not have been a named defendant to the U.K. litigation because her allegedly defamatory statements were made after the U.K. action commenced," the judge added.</p>

<p><br />
Last month, Heard’s lawyer argued that if Virginia court didn’t accept the U.K. judgment, there would be nothing to stop Depp from bringing new cases anytime any publication repeated words: that he was a 'wife beater'.</p>

<p><br />
"If anything, upholding English libel judgments in the United States would create the chilling effect and could create a dangerous precedent," the judge wrote.</p>

<p><br />
Reportedly, the trial is scheduled for early next year and will also examine Heard’s counterclaims.</p>

Depp's lawyers have alleged that Heard was lying about donating the entirety of her divorce settlement to the ACLU and to the Children`s Hospital Los Angeles, and may have cost him his libel case against a British newspaper in November 2020.<br />

Amber Heard is a mom now! The 'Aquaman' actress surprised the world with the news that she has welcomed her first child - a girl named Oonagh Paige Heard. The daughter is named after Heard late mom, Paige. Taking to her Instagram, the 35-year-old actress shared the first peaceful picture of her with the baby and both can be seen resting. In the caption, Amber revealed the name of the girl with the birth date i.e April 8, 2021. "I’m so excited to share this news with you," Heard wrote on Instagram, sharing a pic. "Four years ago, I decided I wanted to have a child. I wanted to do it on my own terms. I now appreciate how radical it is for us as women to think about one of the most fundamental parts of our destinies in this way. I hope we arrive at a point in which it’s normalized to not want a ring in order to have a crib."

Another 'Game of Thrones' star in talks to join Jason Momoa in 'Aquaman 2'

<p>Johnny Depp is seeking to overturn the ruling in his 'wife-beater'&nbsp;libel case.</p>

<p>Speaking at the Court of Appeal in London on Thursday, Depp's lawyers appealed the November 2020 judgment on the grounds that Amber Heard's pledge to donate her $7 million divorce settlement to charity was a "calculated and manipulative lie" that "subliminally" influenced the original trial judge.</p>

<p>As reported by People, they backed this assertion up with new evidence they say shows the actress has directly donated a total of $550,000 to the ACLU and the Children's Hospital of Los Angeles since the couple's 2016 divorce.</p>

<p>It was, they claimed, far removed from the $3.5 million "the court was led to believe" each organization would receive.</p>

<p>Heard's legal team stated that she has done "nothing dishonest" with her donations to both charities and that she "pledged to pay over 10 years" — something they added was "understood" by the ACLU.</p>

<p>To support this, Heard's attorneys provided their own evidence showing that the Aquaman star has, in fact, gifted a total of $950,000 to the ACLU and $850,000 to the Children's Hospital through anonymous donors.</p>

<p>"She has pledged this amount," said Wolanski. "She is a donor."</p>

<p>According to Depp's attorney Heard's highly publicized charitable pledge tipped "the scales against Mr. Depp from the very beginning" in the mind of libel trial judge Mr. Justice Nicol, who ruled that a 2018 article in The Sun newspaper depicting Depp as a "wife-beater" was "substantially true" on Nov. 2.</p>

<p>"(It says) I want him to pay but I don't want to keep a dime of his money because of the way I've been treated," continued Caldecott, adding that it "implies revulsion at the way she has been treated."</p>

<p>"It goes to the likely starting point of whether she was a likely victim of domestic violence," said Caldicott. "It's a false plus to her and a false minus to him."</p>

<p>Heard publicly stated that she would donate her $7 million divorce settlement to charity on August 18, 2016, adding that the money would go to the ACLU and the Children's Hospital of Los Angeles.</p>

<p>"Money played no role for me personally and never has, except to the extent that I could donate it to charity and, in doing so, hopefully, help those less able to defend themselves," Heard, 34, said in a statement.</p>

<p>&nbsp;"As reported in the media, the amount received in the divorce was $7 million, and $7 million is being donated," she added. "This is over and above any funds that I have given away in the past and will continue to give away in the future."</p>

<p>On Thursday, Depp's lawyers contended that the public pledge played an important role in the original libel hearings as judge Nicol stated in his ruling: "Her donation of the seven million US&nbsp;dollars to charity is hardly the act one would expect of a gold-digger."</p>

<p>In reply, lawyers for News Group Newspapers — the parent company of The Sun — described Depp's allegations as "fanciful" during the court hearing.</p>

<p>"The whole theory is nonsensical," added lawyer Adam Wolanski. "The material would have made no difference at all to the credit of Ms. Heard."</p>

<p>Wolanski continued that the claims were also part of a "misogynistic trope" that sought to paint Heard as a "gold-digger" and had no bearing on the wider case of whether she had been assaulted by Depp during their 15-month marriage.</p>

<p>At the close of the hearing, the three Court of Appeal judges stated that they would deliver a written judgment on Depp's submission as soon as possible. Neither Heard or Depp was present at the hearing.</p>

<p>Heard and Depp tied the knot in 2015. In May 2016, she sought a domestic violence restraining order against him, accusing him of abusing her. Depp denied the claims, and the former couple settled their divorce out of court in August 2016.&nbsp;</p>

Johnny Depp calls Amber Heard's pledge to donate $7 million settlement a 'lie'

<p>Hollywood star Johnny Depp will seek permission on Thursday to appeal against his defeat in a London libel case last year over a tabloid article which labelled him a wife beater.<br />
<br />
High Court Judge Andrew Nicol ruled last November that Depp had violently assaulted his ex-wife Amber Heard during their tempestuous five-year relationship, at times putting her in fear for her life.<br />
<br />
That decision came after three weeks of hearings where the court heard sensational claim and counter-claim from Depp, 57, and Heard, 34, about violent outbursts which each accused the other of committing.<br />
<br />
Depp, star of films including "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "Edward Scissorhands", had gone to the London court to sue The Sun newspaper and one of its journalists over an article that stated he had been violent towards Heard.<br />
<br />
"I have found that the great majority of alleged assaults of Ms Heard by Mr Depp have been proved to the civil standard," said Nicol in his November ruling.<br />
In the aftermath, Depp`s lawyers said the ruling was so flawed it would be ridiculous for him not to appeal.<br />
<br />
They said it was "troubling" the judge had relied on Heard`s testimony while rejecting the evidence of police officers, her former assistant and other witnesses which they said had undermined her evidence.<br />
<br />
On Thursday, Depp`s legal team will apply for permission to appeal and to rely on further evidence. The hearing, expected to last for about two hours, will be livestreamed on the Court of Appeal`s YouTube channel.<br />
<br />
Following Nicol`s verdict, seen as being highly damaging to his career, Depp was asked to leave the "Fantastic Beasts" franchise, the movie spin-offs from the "Harry Potter" books and films.<br />
<br />
During the libel trial last summer, Heard said Depp would turn into a jealous alter ego, "the monster", after bingeing on drugs and alcohol and had often threatened to kill her.<br />
