The toxic divorce back-and-forth between Hollywood stars Johnny Depp and Amber Heard continues with the latest legal front shifting to Depp's reported lawsuit against his ex, seeking $50 million for allegedly defaming him with "hoax" allegations of domestic abuse.

Heard's lawyer, Eric George of Los Angeles, told USA TODAY he had not yet seen the lawsuit, only the media reports about it. But he issued a statement condemning it as "frivolous" and vowed it would not stop Heard from speaking out further about domestic violence.
"This frivolous action is just the latest of Johnny Depp's repeated efforts to silence Amber Heard," George said in a statement emailed to USA TODAY. "She will not be silenced.
"Mr. Depp's actions prove he is unable to accept the truth of his ongoing abusive behavior. But while he appears hell-bent on achieving self destruction, we will prevail in defeating this groundless lawsuit and ending the continued vile harassment of my client by Mr. Depp and his legal team."

My guess is that Depp has run out of money and is no longer being offered high-profile roles. I checked his IMDB page and he doesnt have anything promising in the near future.

He runs out of money ? LOL. Do you have even an idea of the amount of money he made for Pirates movies ?

Maybe, just maybe, he doesn't want to be portrayed as someone who was responsible for domestic violence if he never did it.

Remember that time WB made his casting the big twist of their flagship film and then hinged the entire plot of the remainder of their tentpole franchise on his character?

Oops.

Seems like you missed the numerous reports regarding how insanely fast he's burning through all his money.

One of these two actually has a history of domestic violence and it ain't Depp. I believe him.

He also says he has receipts that she was cheating with Musk early in their marriage. What a damn mess.

I know for a fact that both of these things aren't true.

His IMDB page lists 4 films that he is set to star in:

1. Snow Moon
2. Hunter's Moon Rising
3. Waiting for the Barbarians
4. Minamata

All 4 of these films appear to be low-budget projects.

And as far as what you know to be facts, I'm doubtful.

The man bought a village in France. He has burned through almost all of his wealth.

I can't fathom why these people can't be content with simple, uncomplicated lives. No wonder the rich are so out of touch with everyone else. $3.6 million annually for his 40-person staff?? $350,000 a month to maintain his yacht?

Wouldn't he need to prove her statements about how he treated her are untrue to be defaming?
Hasn't it been established, like, on video he hurt her? What the fuck does he hope to accomplish? If it's just extracting money from her, well, he fucked that up as per her lawyer. he ain't getting shit lol. Anything else is kinda impossible even before the attempt.

I'm not sure what you're looking at, but IMDB Pro clearly shows 2 projects in production and 25 in development (Granted some of those are for sure dev hell). Regardless, IMDB is not a completely reliable source, especially for unannounced projects. I know for a fact of at least one more major one, not listed in any of those at all, that should be announced in the next month or two.

People saying it's messy... huh? It was cut and dry. And she donated all the money received to charity. This is Depp being desperate and people coming up with weird conspiracy theories to defend him.

How the hell can someone spent 600 millions and be in debt? Give me one mil and I'll be set for the rest of my life. It's pathetic that he wants to make money this way, hell, go Bruce Willis route and start appearing in every trash thriller out there if you need money this much.

I do not have IMDB Pro. The basic version only lists those 4 projects.

But I'll concede that point to you. However, it has been publicized that Depp is having money problems. I doubt that you know for a fact that that isn't true.

He has money problems in the way that he habitually has a problem spending money. He doesn't have a problem with income. And let's not forget he owns over a dozen different properties that he could liquidate if push really came to shove.

Imagine being an actor and maintaining a 40-person staff for yourself. Does Conan O'Brien even employ that many people to produce his show? $30k on wine a month? Some supplier was spanking that fool with overpriced product and living large because of it. $350k a month to maintain a yacht? Buddy, you can just rent one when you need it. He could literally rent a yacht with a full crew for ten guests one week each month and would have only ran him about $15k/month.

I can't fathom an individual making such gullible and silly money decisions. Maybe he is out of money and getting desperate, and I can't imagine his name is very bankable these days.
