Amber Heard’s Role in Aquaman Sequel Sparks Discussion Amidst Screen Time Reduction

Lisa Sean Published December 24, 2023

The release of the highly anticipated Aquaman sequel, “Aquaman & The Lost Kingdom,” has brought Amber Heard’s role into the spotlight, drawing attention and sparking conversations, particularly in the aftermath of her well-publicized legal battle with ex-husband Johnny Depp last year.

Heard, who portrays Mera, the love interest of the titular hero played by Jason Momoa, has found her role noticeably scaled down in the film, with reports indicating a mere 15 to 20 minutes of screen time out of the 142-minute duration.

Contrary to expectations of Heard taking center stage, the film pivots to focus on Momoa and co-star Patrick Wilson, who lead the narrative. Business Insider reports that Heard delivers only 11 lines throughout the movie, often appearing in silence while standing or sitting beside or behind Aquaman. Even when she does speak, her dialogue rarely extends beyond one piece at a time.

Director James Wan, in a September interview with Entertainment Weekly, clarified that Heard was never intended to co-lead the sequel. However, the controversy deepened when DC Films president James Hamada testified last year on behalf of Johnny Depp’s legal team, suggesting that Heard’s reduced role was a result of a “lack of chemistry” with Momoa in the first movie.

As “Aquaman & The Lost Kingdom” hits theaters, the discussion around Amber Heard’s role reflects the intricate dynamics both on and off the screen, further fueled by the controversies and legal battles surrounding the actress. The film’s reception and Heard’s portrayal will likely continue to be a topic of interest as audiences engage with the latest installment in the Aquaman franchise.
