Johnny Depp asked to resign from Fantastic Beasts film after damning London court ruling
www.smh.com.au
Warner Bros has cut loose Johnny Depp from a new blockbuster movie following a damning court judgment that found the actor had repeatedly assaulted his former wife.

I hated the first Fantastic Beasts, but for some reason didn't mind the second. Maybe because it was trying to be about something?

    So is Johnny Depp actually an abuser or not? Last I heard redditors were going all in on the whole thing being made up and his ex wife being the abuser, and I immediately distrusted it, well, because reddit.

      Really it just came off as two rich people acting shittily towards one another. Sort of like a bourgeois version of Roald Dahl's The Twits except but with more cocaine.

      Reddit only defended Depp instead of Heard for obvious reasons.

      It's clear it's a toxic relationship. He's an abuser, she fought back/is also an abuser.

      And lol Reddit.

    Oh god, speaking of JK Rowling, some piece of shit is gonna want to adapt the screenplay of her new transphobic serial killer novel and sell it on the controversy.

      I just hated the first for being so lame, about nothing and without comedy despite edited like one. Second one is super dumb when you think about it for more than two seconds, but I was drawn to its depiction of a wizard demagogue and the Liberal enforcement institution trying to shut it down/accidentally making it worse.
