Actor Johnny Depp and his ex-wife, actress Amber Heard, arrived at a London court as Depp launched legal action against a British tabloid over a 2018 article calling him a ‘wife beater’

Depp, the 57-year-old star of the “Pirates of the Caribbean” films, is suing The Sun’s publisher, News Group Newspapers, and its executive editor, Dan Wootton, for libel over an article Wootton wrote in April 2018 calling him a “wife beater”.

He said Heard had first aired the allegations in May 2016 when she obtained a restraining order against Depp at a Los Angeles court when she appeared to have bruises on her face caused in an incident six days earlier. The case is set to last for three weeks, the judge, Andrew Nicol, said. Depp took the stand at the beginning of the trial and Heard is also expected to give evidence.

Did Dan Wootton actually do media law? Cause if he's an actual accredited journalist he'd know not to call someone a wife beater in the press.

Just keep forward. Amber is a Sociopath, a liar. She thinks because she is beautiful do what she wants with man's. Take care, she is a dangerous women.

Just say that it was The Sun, Britain's biggest piece of shitrag not that the rest of the British press is any better

Good for Johnny

Go, Johnny, go! 👏👏👏

what court is this?

Go Johnny 👏

Why don't you name the tabloid in your tweet?

Best of luck to Johnny. False accusers need some sort of punishment. Their accusations ruin people's lives.

Amber Heard needs to pay for her false accusations and the media needs to pay for nearly destroying a man’s career and life like some blood thirsty lynch mob.

And The Sun lawyers are questioning him about breaking some furniture in a hotel room in 90s to prove he abused Amber Heard. JusticeForJohnnyDepp
