Johnny Depp is getting ready for major court case
Amber Heard's lawyers warned the Virginia state jury that they were going to get to know "the real Johnny Depp." In his opening statements, Heard's lawyer, J. Benjamin Rottenborn had some choice words in regards to the Pirates of the Caribbean actor.
During the opening trial, Rottenborn said the evidence will show that Depp physically and sexually assaulted Heard a few times, which Depp claims is completely false.
Benjamin Chew, Depp's lawyer, claimed that Heard was making false allegations against Depp and that Heard showed up to the 2018 trial in regards to their divorce with a fake bruise!

Chew claims that Heard showed up on the 27th of May 2018 to the courtroom with a bruise on her cheek, implying Depp's involvement. Chew says, however, it couldn't have been Depp because he had left for Europe at this time to be on tour with his band. The couple hadn't seen each other since the 21st of that month.
On the 21st, police had been to Heard's residence, and at the time they reported there was no bruise on Heard's cheek.
There are plenty of celebs involved in this case that have spoken out on behalf of both actors.
Elon Musk and James Franco are in favour of Heard, while Winona Ryder, Orlando Bloom, Vanessa Pardis, Penelope Cruz, and Keira Knightly are just some of the celebs speaking out on behalf of Depp. Watch the video above for the whole court hearing!
