A new documentary looking into the court case between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard is coming to our screens.
The defamation case will be the focus of a three-part series which will air on Channel 4 this weekend.
Depp vs Heard comes from BAFTA-nominated director Emma Cooper, and will offer an in-depth look at the defamation trial brought by Johnny Depp against his ex-wife Amber Heard last year. The trial came about after a 2018 op-ed in The Washington Post, where Heard wrote about being a survivor of domestic violence. The trial dominated the news for months.
The official synopsis for the documentary reads: “The trial of Depp v Heard, in which both parties accused each other of domestic abuse, was a global media event and dubbed ‘the first TikTok trial’. It raised huge questions about violence, gender and the memeifcation of justice in the era of post-truth."
The synopsis also explains that the miniseries will place “Depp and Heard’s testimonies side by side for the first time,” and that it will bring together “courtroom footage, news sources, existing interview footage and User Generated Content from various social media platforms to explore some of the extraordinary moments of the trial and the impact this had on public opinion at the time.”
Pirates of the Caribbean star Depp filled up with tears earlier this week at the Cannes Film Festival, after receiving a seven minute standing ovation for his French-language movie, Jeanne Du Barry, in which he stars as King of France, Louis XV.
Depp has since said that he “no longer needs Hollywood”.
The standing ovation has led Ulrika Jonsson to criticise "Hollywood hypocrites" for "fawning" over the actor.
If you want to watch Depp vs Heard, then the first episode will air on Channel 4 on Sunday, 21st May 21 at 9pm.
Subsequent episodes will follow on consecutive nights, Monday 22nd May 22 at 10pm, and Tuesday 23rd May 23 at 10pm.
