According to People, after the lawsuit between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard for defamation ended, experts and the public are very interested in the star couple's career in the near future.

The former executive director of Disney Studios (who wishes to remain anonymous) said that the actor born in 1963 is enjoying strong support from the global audience. That is an advantage for him to soon return to the film path. This person said Johnny Depp may be invited to participate in a new part of the Pirates of the Caribbean series - a work associated with the actor's name.

"I fully believe that after the verdict, Johnny Depp will return as Captain Jack Sparrow on the Pirates of the Caribbean ship. Depp has too many advantages to bring box office victory to the work of Jack's character. ingrained in Disney culture," said the former Disney executive.

"Pirates of the Caribbean producer Jerry Bruckheimer is praising Tom Cruise's success in Top Gun: Maverick. He's also hoping to find Hollywood stars capable of delivering massive success in the country. such a box office," this person added.

Previously, Depp shared that he would not cooperate with Disney even if the company offered to pay him $ 300 million.

Talking about Depp's future after the defamation lawsuit is over, experts say Hollywood studios are still wary of working with the star who has been accused of abuse like an actor. And so, he hardly found the opportunity to join a big-budget mainstream production.

Recently, Depp is said to have returned to artistic activities, especially music. He and guitarist Jeff Beck appeared many times on the music scene in the UK. The actor played his own musical instrument, performing famous songs of John Lennon, Marvin Gaye, Jimi Hendrix. In addition, Depp also confirmed to participate in the new film project of director Maiwenn as King Louis XV.

On Heard's side, experts say that the future of female stars in Hollywood is also said to be extremely precarious.

Specifically, British media expert Mark Borkowski said: "There's no going back for Heard in Hollywood. If you're making a movie or thinking about casting, are you going to hire her? Look at the objections. vehemently from the Aquaman 2 project (the petition to remove Heard has already reached 4 million signatures.) Any promotion of the film will be severely affected."

Former entertainment lawyer Matthew Belloni said that too many hidden corners of Depp and Heard's private life and scandals were exposed in the 6-week lawsuit. This makes the studios do not dare to take risks.

"The two will be back in action but I think it will take time before a major studio dares bet on them and feels safe," Belloni said.

Alexandra Villa, a management consultant with In House PR, told the Mirror that Amber's career was facing a serious crisis. What happened left the major Hollywood studios in awe. Smaller production companies are also wary of investing money in Amber for any given project. Public opinion is against Amber Heard.

Spotted Media's CEO, Janet Comenos, said movie producers are moving to monitor the data to find out what the public thinks of Depp and Heard. Comenos says that in this case, the results are pretty clear. Johnny Depp's ability to return is much more advantageous than his ex-wife.

Eric Rose, a Los Angeles-based media crisis specialist, called the lawsuit a "classic suicide", killing the careers of two screen stars.

"From a reputation and image management perspective, no one really wins in this case. They're killing each other. Public sentiment is strong right now. If the studio invites Johnny or Amber, they're both at risk. lose a large audience".

In addition to her career being affected, Amber Heard is also experiencing a financial crisis. According to People, Amber Heard's lawyer - Elaine Bredehoft - just gave an interview on Today after the trial between the stars ended. Opening the show, MC Savannah Guthrie questioned whether the actress would pay $ 10.35 million to Johnny Depp after losing the lawsuit, Elaine Bredehoft replied: "Oh, no. Absolutely not. that".

Amber Heard's lawyer revealed that the actress was having financial difficulties because she had to pay for legal costs related to the defamation lawsuit with Depp.

To pursue litigation, Heard hired three attorneys Elaine Bredehoft, Ben Rottenborn and Joshua Treece of the Virginia-based firm Woods Rogers. The actress costs 3 million USD in total, 200 USD/hour for each lawyer.

In addition, according to the statistics of Celebrity Net Worth, Heard's net worth is only about 1.5-2.5 million USD. This amount is too meager compared to the compensation that the actress has to pay for her ex-husband.

According to the New York Post, a lavish lifestyle with a passion for brands is also one of the reasons why Heard faces financial difficulties. She regularly spends large sums of money on luxury travel, clothes, handbags of big brands, gifts and alcohol.

On June 1, the actress decided to appeal after the court of Fairfax, Virginia ruled her loss against Johnny Depp in the defamation case.

On CBS News, attorney Spurgeon shared that Heard could file for bankruptcy. At that time, she was exempted from the $10 million in damages. However, Heard still had to pay $350,000 in punitive damages.

Spurgeon also did not rule out the possibility that Depp could make a decision not to enforce the award (specifically, the amount of compensation) or negotiate for Heard a lower number. "Depp is in the driver's seat," Spurgeon insisted.
