If Amber Heard was in Pirates of the Caribbean as Johnny Depp says hell never return – HITC – Football, Gaming, Movies, TV, Music

As Amber Heards court showdown with ex-husband Johnny Depp continues, people are wondering if she starred alongside him in Pirates of the Caribbean.

The actress has 51 acting credits to her name according to IMDb, but is the Disney movie franchise among them?

The short answer is no, Heard hasnt appeared in any of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies.

The pair met when Heard was cast in The Rum Diary (2011).

She played Chenault and Depp played Kemp, as well as acting as a producer on the movie which follows American journalist Paul Kemp as he takes on a freelance job in Puerto Rico for a local newspaper in the 1960s.

The movie is based on a novel by Hunter S Thompson, who was a good friend of Depps.

While giving evidence at the ongoing defamation trial in Virginia, Heard described how they met while she was auditioning for the movie.

She told the court: Well I auditioned a few times which is common in my work, you get a call back as they say, and I think I had at least one, maybe two call backs with the director and then I got a call saying Johnny, who at the time was I think I knew that he was producing it as well, was doing a project that was very personal to him, he was reprising his role as his late friend Hunter S Thompson and it was a very important project to him and that he wanted to meet me in person.

I thought I would be going for maybe an audition but it was just a meeting. I went to his office and met with him for a few hours.

When asked what they talked about during the meeting, she said: We talked about books and music, poetry, we like a lot of the same, we liked a lot of the same stuff, you know obscure writers and interesting books and pieces of poetry that I hadnt heard anyone else reference or know or like and he was very well read and charismatic and I think I left the office with a few books he gave me and we spent the whole time just talking about things that we care about and I was so surprised that somebody, you know I knew who he was, I wasnt familiar, you know, wasnt a fan of his work, I wasnt familiar with him but I knew who he was, he was one of the most famous people in the world, so it was already a weird thing to get called into his office and you know, Im a no name actor, I was 22 I think and I thought it was unusual.

It was weird because hes twice my age and hes this world famous actor and here we are getting along about obscure books and weird, you know, old blues and we just, I thought it was remarkable. I thought it was unusual and remarkable.

I left there just feeling like wow.

Heard is perhaps best known for her role as Mera in Aquaman and Justice League. Aquaman 2 is currently in post-production.

Her first credited acting role came in 2004 in the pilot of TV show Jack & Bobby.

On TV, shes appeared in shows including The O.C., Criminal Minds and Californication.

And on the big screen, shes also known for her roles in Pineapple Express, Zombieland, Magic Mike XXL and The Danish Girl.

So far, five movies have been released in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, and Depp has starred in all of them as Captain Jack Sparrow.

His character featured in The Curse of the Black Pearl, Dead Mans Chest, At Worlds End, On Stranger Tides and Dead Men Tell No Tales.

A sixth film was reportedly going to be shot back-to-back with the fifth one, but only the fifth was developed.

Depp confirmed at the libel trial that he wont be returning for the sixth.

He was asked about it by Heards lawyer J Benjamin Rottenborn, who said: The fact is, Mr Depp, if Disney came to you with $300 million and a million alpacas, nothing on this earth would get you to go back and work with Disney on aPirates of the Caribbeanfilm? Correct?

Depp responded: That is true, Mr Rottenborn.

Insider reports that Depp was set to be paid $22.5 million for the sixth film.
