A new book titled Hollywood Vampires: Johnny Depp, Amber Heard, and the Celebrity Exploitation Machine has been released, and it gives a first-time behind-closed-doors account of the sensationalized 2022 multimillion-dollar defamation trial.
The tell-all features input from a 53-year-old retired defense contractor, Tom Nugen, who claims the jury was rather biased towards the Aquaman actress, favoring Depp’s accounts over hers.
The trial, which came to fruition after Heard published an op-ed in the Washington Post, calling herself a victim of abuse while married to the Pirates of the Caribbean actor, resulted in Depp suing her for $50 million, and Heard counter-suing for double the amount.
