Amber Heard suffers a fan boycott for her appearance in Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom 5

 

Thousands of people around the world continue to be focused on Amber Heard. However, this time it doesn’t revolve around the trial, but to her work as a film actress. Due to her increased screen time in the second installment of the Aquaman saga, the actress has received a barrage of negative feedback.

Mera (the character played by Heard) was given more screen time by Warner Bros. during the production of the film. After several weeks of uncertainty, the company decided to expand her presence.

This is in contrast to reports that she would be cut from the film as a result of the media backlash resulting from the lawsuit. During the legal proceedings, she even mentioned it.

According to different sources, Heard would go from having 10 minutes of screen-time to about 20-25 in the film’s runtime.

Negative response on social media

This fact upset many followers on social networks, who asked Warner Bros for a change regarding this measure. The wave of comments showing their disagreement was immediate.

The hashtag #boycottaquaman2 quickly became a trend on the Twitter platform, with many highlighting their disagreement with this decision.

A few weeks ago, fans already asked Warner Bros that Amber Heard not appear in Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom. A proposal on change.org reached more than 4 million signatures.

Heard will have to pay 15 million dollars in damages to Johnny Depp after sentencing in the trial in Fairfax, Virginia. The jury ruled that there was defamation on the part of the actress.
