It will be. I hope they consider very carefully the timing around Minamata. I have long thought that the COVID shut down was so helpful to Amber but actually Johnny needs to use this time.

If they can get some good PR around the VA case or the appeal - something which really screws her because let's face it it is all out war to prove what she is - the backlash of sympathy will be huge.

He's already hugely popular with a lot of people who think there has been a miscarriage of justice. If he can get more evidence out the bounce back can be huge.

I do take your point Lbock. And I did also think (although I didn't want to admit it) that FB series is in trouble - and I am glad now that Johnny won't be blamed.

Please everyone keep streaming his films. We have to keep going - in particular show Disney how much we love him in Pirates. A good 2021 and we could yet be back in business.

Well, Fantastic Beasts 3 is a film I won't be going to see, nor will I pay to see any Warner Bros film ever again.

Big mistake on WB part but Johnny will move on. He will probably write some good songs for the Hollywood Vampires next album out of all this. At least that's a group will stand up for him. These guys aren't just band mates, they are friends.

There is talk Tim Burton is doing a remake of the Adams Family and the fans really want Johnny to play Gomez Adams. I hope that happens. I think he would be a great Gomez Adams.

If Amber Heard thinks she was hated before this resignation she has no idea of the wrath that is coming for her.
Stay tuned.

Guys, we need to launch a petition to support Johnny. Immediately! Even if he doesn't want to return to FB3, we have to tell the WB's that we demand his return!

I'm so glad Johnny made a public statement and the truth will come out one day.
Also i am so proud of him and he is doing the right thing for him.
He knows he is loved. Love and respect for you wonderful angel. :giveflower:

Well, darn it. I was looking forward to FB3. I won't be seeing it now. :grr:
Same here. In fact I'm so incensed I'm seriously thinking of boycotting anything WB.

I'm sorry, but I'm also disappointed in#metoo for their support of the husband beater. Post Weinstein #metoo have a lot of clout in the movie industry, and I wouldn't be a bit surprised if WB are afraid of alienating them. The fact is Johnny has NOT been convicted of spousal abuse, he's lost a libel action against an unpleasant tabloid whose owner is a wealthy Tory donor. Most British QCs are Tories.

Some of the Sun's track record is diabolical. They've been accused of everything from open defamation of character to driving someone to suicide. They especially enjoy picking on the weak and vulnerable. Johnny is the latter but not the former. I hope he appeals the :censored: out of them. And I'm waiting for the day the husband beater makes headlines for being the abuser, not the victim. Because trust me, Johnny isn't her first, and he won't be her last.

I believe a petition has already been started.

But would he want to go back I wonder? Pirates is different, he owns that.

It might be a lot easier until the court cases are done and dusted (which may be 2022) if he steered away from the family friendly Disney and WB and did more adult type roles. I personally loved WFTB for example.

I hope he can still make some films next year - if films are being made or even if they can do some more documentaries.

And does anyone really want to see the Keith Richards doc? It was mentioned a lot in the trial. I wanna see it (please let them edit anything about her and her unblemished face though ......). I had an impression that Keith wanted it released after he had died - did I imagine that?

I'd love to see Johnny combine his love of music and film.

But most of all I want him to focus on the cases because he is the best witness for himself (other actually than her and her lying words!)

I have just had my first laugh out loud moment this week.

Johnny has added another 100k followers.

Amber hasn't.

I hope all of this means what it should to him. I believe it does - I hope so.

We should all keep in mind too, even after MeToo, Hollywood is a place of forgiveness particularly when people are backed with talent and fans.

On a rival tabloid I made a very angry comment about Injustice Nichol and got editor's pick, I also noticed ninety percent of the posters were for Johnny.
If one good thing has come out of this mess it's that the sordid details of Amber's behaviour, from using the bed as a toilet :yuck: to her violence towards other associates, hasn't done her any favours. Johnny might have lost the case but the battle is far from over.

I don't know what the petition is but I hope it is boycott all WB films. Don't go see them, don't buy them, don't rent them and don't watch them.

Reading his letter again. They asked him to resign. That kind of language in business usually includes severance pay/buy out. 🤞🏼🙏🏻

And the support gather pace.

Remember 2016, 2017, 2018 when lots of Harry Potter websites etc opposed him?

https://twitter.com/HPotterUniverse

This one with a mass following is tweeting JusticeForJohnnyDepp and asking people to sound off to WB.

Can I just ask everyone not to boycott WB films with Johnny in that are already out - put some more money in his pocket but more importantly show WB how much we love him.

I feel horrible but weirdly elated like we are no longer tied to big studios with all the comprises that brings. It is kinda where outlaw pirate Johnny belongs - maybe just for a little while.

Kitaika the link didn't work does this https://www.change.org/p/the-people-war ... 764e049b10

Please everyone sign - we got mass signatures to get rid of AH, but let's have a positive one. It will make no different but that Aquaman petition gets cited all the time.
