- Hollywood is divided on the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard trial
- Depp v. Heard is the biggest story right now
- But what are celebrities actually saying about it?
Hollywood hasn't been this divided since the presidential election. In the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard trial, many stars are taking sides.
Let's start with Johnny Depp, who is suing his ex-wife Amber Heard for damaging his reputation. Depp is supported, among others, by his ex-partner Winona Ryder.
"He was never, never abusive at all towards me. He has never been violent or abusive towards anybody I have seen," Ryder explained in a statement.
Depp's ex Vanessa Paradis also confirmed this. She wrote in: "This is nothing like the real Johnny I know, and from my personal experience of many years I can say that he was never violent or abusive."
Pirates of the Caribbean cast support Johnny Depp
In addition, Johnny Depp is supported by colleagues like Javier Bardem and Penélope Cruz, with whom he appeared in front of the camera for Pirates of the Caribbean.
Even actress Eva Green, who co-starred with Depp in Dark Shadows, made it clear that she stands by the actor. Kate Moss was another recent name to support Depp.

Amber Heard gets a lot of encouragement from Hollywood
But Amber Heard has also received a lot of encouragement in Hollywood so far. Comedian Kathy Griffin tweets Amber: "Sending all the love."
Kanye West's ex Julia Fox is also convinced Amber is the victim. Host Howard Stern even went so far as to call Depp a narcissist on his show.
Actor David Krumholtz slammed the actor on Instagram: "Johnny Depp's smugness during the trial is sickening." Then Ellen Barkin, who used to date Johnny Depp, testified against the actor.
Jennifer Grey, another of Depp's exes, fell somewhere in the middle. She raised more troubling claims about Depp but still appears to care for him.
It remains to be seen how Johnny Depp and Amber Heard's court hearing will end. In any case, one thing is clear: the process has damaged both actors professionally.
