    Sometimes its best to leave the drama behind. Marvel can recast and say who gives a **** about terrence howard because he was too expensive who wanted to make more than RDJ not because he abused his partner. They have the public on their side WB/DC does not
    Yes which is why Richard Madden was asked about Harrington entering rehab at the Rocketman premiere, right? They're going to get asked these questions no matter what. I dont know why you're trying too hard lmao.

    I didn't know Howard was replaced in 2017?

    Yeah that's not the same thing at all

    Ben Affleck fell off the wagon and his life fell apart after Justice League bombed. Nobody is going to even ask Pattinson or Reeves a question about him will they?
    This is a different situation and since Amber Heard is has been playing the character for two movies after Aquaman there is a bit more of a connection to her. Obviously the character has nothing to do with the person playing them but some times that stuff sticks

    The fact that we are even arguing about this is a problem for the studio ffs. I get people like Mera but at the same time think about how much of a mess fantastic beasts became once the Depp mess kicked off. That's what Aquaman 2 is gonna be if they don't do something

    General audiences won't care if a different actress plays Mera. It's a character in a movie. If Batman can be someone different, Mera can be.

    Heard has been in the same amount of movies as Mera as Affleck has as Batman. If he can be recast, so can she. And

    That doesn't mean that "something" has to be dropping Mera entirely.

    I'm not sure anything will be done here, regardless of what the facts are between Heard and Depp, because she isn't going to be the star of any of the forthcoming films. I doubt keeping her on board will affect the box office much (if any), unlike any future films starring Depp. Time will tell, though.

    Eh, you people really shouldn't be so judgmental. Marriages are complicated and in this single clip you aren't going to witness the entire breadth of their relationship.

    Just recast the character of Mera. If Herd lands in hot water, there's no point in bringing her back to the fold.

    Mera is too important to the Aquaman mythos to just throw out the character. I say recast if need be, but keep the character.

    I want Mera in Aquaman 2 for the same reason I want the main supporting players in the Batman reboot.

    The Batman comparison doesn’t even make sense. We don’t even know if Pattinson will be part of the WODC/DCEU. On top of the fact the whole Batverse is being replaced. We’re getting a different Alfred we will probably see a different Thomas and Martha as well as a different Joker.

    I’m confused on what was the thought process of that commercial. Might order some cologne though ��

    I mean, if people raked Depp over the coals for his perceived abuse, having legitimate evidence of Heard committing abuse should impact her career just as much (one would think).
