Development for

Aquaman 2

is steady going with not much in the way of news or announcements, besides the

return of Patrick Wilson’s Oceanmaster

and

describing the sequel as

“…a little bit more serious. A little bit more relevant to the world that we’re living in today.”

Before DC FanDome, director James Wan

did hint at his sequel having more horror elements

like the first had with The Trench creatures.

Now, it has seemingly been revealed by Deadline that Amber Heard’s Mera will return for the sequel as well, despite her

ongoing defamation suit with Johnny Depp

and

the revelations of her own abuse towards Depp

In a report from Deadline

about the ongoing defamation trial between Johnny Depp and his ex-wife Amber Heard

, it was  mentioned that Heard is still planned to film her part as Mera in

Aquaman 2

sometime next year:

The legal papers also state that Heard has agreed to meet on Sept. 11 to discuss the potential delay and that the proposed postponement “would not entail any prejudice to her, much less unfair prejudice” as she’s expected to film

Aquaman

2

sometime next year.

WHAT THIS MEANS

It seems that just like

Ezra Miller’s assault of a fan

going unaddressed, so too will Amber Heard’s abusive behavior toward Johnny Depp. Since Depp’s defamation suit against the actress in 2019, it has been revealed that Heard was likely equally

abusive toward him in their relationship and marriage

.

The lack of addressing any of these controversies is becoming

a growing problem within Warner Bros.

and their DC film productions. While their television branch was seemingly

willing to fire an actor

who had made racist and misogynistic tweets several years ago, Warner Bros. seems unwilling to acknowledge what their film actors

and directors

have done.
