There's a lot of controversy surrounding Amber Heard right now, and while it was Johnny Depp who came out on the losing end of that high-profile court battle in London, her reputation has also been damaged. There's a petition online demanding Heard's removal from Aquaman 2 as Mera, though it doesn't appear as if Warner Bros. is taking much notice.
Heard was recently among those enlisted to film additional scenes for Zack Snyder's Justice League, and in an interview with ComicBook.com, she commented on those reshoots.
"I'm super excited about it. We just wrapped on reshoots and I just love nerds," the actress exclaimed. "I f*cking love nerds, excuse my language. Zack [Snyder] is a perfect example of a nerd."
"You know, I got into this project on The Stand because of another true, die hard nerd, which is Josh Boone, who connected all of us on this project as he was adapting the book for Stephen [King]," Heard continued. "And I think it's just a good rule of thumb to follow, especially in this genre which I love. It's like follow the nerd, the nerd passion is where you want to be."
It feels a lot like the Aquaman star might be trying to win fans over, though declaring that she loves "nerds" might not be the best way to go about it.
Are you on board with seeing more of Heard's Mera in the DC Extended Universe?
