The bombshell defamation trial between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard cast a spotlight on many in its wide cast of characters, not the least of which being the legal team that failed to secure a win for the Aquaman actor.
Almost one year after the losing verdict, the trial is now being put back on display through Channel 4’s new three-part documentary Depp v Heard. The series from Bafta-nominated director Emma Cooper, pledges to examine what the blockbuster events of last spring reveal about “violence, gender and the memeification of justice in the era of post-truth”.
