Financial losses salary the twentieth day of the Judicial Battle of Johnny Depp and Amber Herd
- May 28
In Virginia, the trial between Johnny Depp and Amber Hurd continues. The actor requires the former wife 50 million US dollars, he has 100 million in the oncoming lawsuit. We tell how the 20th day of the meeting went.
The subject of the court is an article in the American newspaper in 2018. It was written by Amber Hurd, and she claims that the title was invented by journalists. He read: "I survived home violence in a relationship, and everyone recouped me." The name of Johnny Depp in the text was not directly mentioned, but the actor believes that everyone already understood who she was talking about.
What happened in the first nineteen days of meetings, we said earlier:
Only a few days, the star trial leaves for the performances of the parties. Now the calls of witnesses from Amber Hurd are ongoing, however, Johnny Depp has the right to invite his witnesses at the points under discussion.
Moreover, each of the parties has the right to attract already familiar experts and cast doubt on each other. Also on this day, the defense Amber Hurd gave a motion of participation in the process of star witness. Supermodel Kate Moss, who met with Johnny Depp in the 1990s, will give its testimony on the video at one of the next meetings.
Earlier, Paul Bettani, James Franco and Elon Musk refused to participate in the process. Each of them had its own reasons and did not want to get confused with someone else's scandal again, and the mask is now more concerned with the story of the purchase of Twitter, although his testimony would be very useful to a businessman's friend - Amber Hurd.
The new day of the meeting was almost completely devoted to financial issues. The defense of Amber Hurd tried to show that the loss of the actress from the scandal was impressive.
An expert on the entertainment industry was invited as a witness - Katherine Arnold. She tried to compare Amber's career with colleagues. Katherine said that the 36-year-old actress could have earned more, if not for the story of Johnny.
Its loss was estimated at $ 50 million due to negative statements that Johnny Depp voiced. In a curious way, the amount accurately coincided with the one that the actor requires from Amber.
Arnold applied the controversial terminology of "comparable actors", calling several Hollywood stars who starred in superhero cinema. She noted that they were related to a similar age, good appearance, the opportunity to perform some tricks without stuntmen and acting.
The interrogation of his witness was led by the team Amber Hurd. Katherine was asked to name the names of similar actors, and they became: Jason Momoa, Gal Gadot, Ana de Armas, Zendia, Chris Pine.
The witness said that everyone had a quarry on the rise in recent years, where "Amber Hurd had to be a career, if not for a scandal.
She noted that all those named worked with large advertising brands, having achieved success in the cinema, but clarified:
The losses from the advertising contracts of actress Katherine estimated at $ 8 million. She received $ 2 million for the role of a measure in the film "Aquaman" DC. The witness emphasized that she was not able to coordinate an increased fee for the second part.
At the same time, the salary of Jason Momoa grew up to sequel from 3-4 to 15 million dollars in the USA, and Amber Hurd the studio in raising the fee refused the negotiations.
She was offered the former fee in the region of $ 1-2 million. The USA with a promise to preserve the character in the second part, and the actress had to agree.
According to Arnold, Herd could act in one picture per year, receiving from $ 4 million for the picture, i.e. During the scandal, she did not earn $ 20 million.
Having folded the lost profit, the lost advertising contracts, television transactions expert came out in the amount of $ 45-50 million.
Obviously, very soon these calculations will try to question Johnny Depp lawyers.
Also on this day, an interrogation of a medical expert, a plastic surgeon - Richard Moore, who operated a lot on the hands of different patients.
At the trial, in the details, we examined the quarrel of a couple in Australia, where Depp lost his tip, claiming that Amber Hurd threw bottles of vodka into it. The case took place in March 2015.
Moore conducted an analysis according to open data and stated in court that, judging by the injury, Johnny Depp's palm lay on the bar cover during an injury with a bottle.
The doctor emphasized that he was not engaged in the treatment of the actor, but at the same time put into question his approval. Richard said that the injury was hardly inflicted in the way that Johnny Depp described in court:
Thus, the expert box denied the testimony of Johnny Depp, and there are no other witnesses of that incident, so the jury will need to decide who they believe a little more.
