Brian Cox admits he "feels sorry" for Amber Heard following her highly publicised defamation trial against ex-husband Johnny Depp.
The Dundee-born actor, who currently plays businessman Logan Roy on Succession, briefly discussed the former couple in a recent interview. The 76-year-old previously said he was somewhat relieved he declined “Pirates” because “it’s very much the ‘Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow’ show, and Depp, personable though I’m sure he is, is so overblown, so overrated.”
However, speaking to The Times, he added “the public love him”. Responding to the interviewer’s suggestion that the jury for the trial also love Depp, Cox replied: “Well, they did.” He continued: “I feel sorry for the woman [Heard]. I think she got the rough end of it.”
