The Warner Bros franchise after Johnny Depp’s controversies with past marriage, make him resign from his role as Grindelwald in Fantastic Beasts.

After the Behemoth company and AT&T merged with Warner Bros, one of the major changes it brought to the company was the no-tolerance policy towards controversy. 

The third Fantastic Beasts movie is currently in the filming in the United Kingdom, after the schedule shift following Johnny Depp’s resignation from role. 

Johnny Depp married Amber Heard, an American actress, in a private ceremony in 2015. 

Over their two years of marriage, they had an abusive relationship. 

Depp had several assault accusations and was given a restraining order before their marriage ended.

Videos of the Hollywood actors were leaked, including several fights with physical and emotional abuse. 

The actor denied over 10 domestic violence violations. 

Recently Depp lost his libel case against The Sun in the United Kingdom, as an 2018 article of the newspaper described him as a “wife-beater.”

The actor lost the case since The Sun’s lawyers were able to prove the description used in their article was “substantially true.”

Heard continued her role on Aqua Man, while Depp was asked to resign from his Fantastic Beasts role. 

J.K. Rowling supported Johnny Depp three years ago staying in the franchise; now she said it is time to let the actor go. 

Jude Law, an english actor and Depp’s coworker in Fantastic Beasts, addressed his pal’s resignation. 

Law said, “In a franchise like this, it’s the studio and the company that make the big decisions.

And you have to go along with those, because we’re just a member of the team.”

Despite him being ousted from the film, Depp will be fully compensated with his full salary even though he only filmed one scene.  

Depp via Instagram concluded a post where he said, “My life and career will not be defined by this moment in time.”

Fantastic Beasts was set by Warner Bros to release on July 15, 2022.

However, Warner Bros moved quickly into finding Depp’s replacement as it was announced that Mads Mikkelsen will officially take over. 

Johnny Depp will forever be a well-known talented actor, despite scandals that may happen behind the scenes.
