Actor Johnny Depp walks into the courtroom at the Fairfax County Circuit Court in Fairfax, Virginia Image: Brendan Smialowski, Pool via AP Actor Johnny Depp walks into the courtroom at the Fairfax County Circuit Court in Fairfax, Virginia Image: Brendan Smialowski, Pool via AP JOHNNY DEPP WILL “go to his grave knowing that whatever he does there will always be people who believe he abused a woman”, a court has heard.

The actor, 58, is suing actress Heard, his former partner, for libel over a 2018 article she wrote in The Washington Post in which she discussed her experiences of domestic abuse. He says the accusations have made it difficult for him to get the sorts of roles he used to, and launched the $50 million lawsuit in 2019.Addressing the jury, Benjamin Chew, representing Mr Depp, said: “Some of you might recognise Johnny Depp from his portrayal of such characters as Edward Scissorhands and Captain Jack Sparrow.“Today his name is associated with a lie. A false statement uttered by his former wife, Amber Heard.”“This is a case about how devastating words can be.
