Johnny Depp has taken the stand against his ex- wife. Heard accused Depp of domestic violence, but he said he was a victim of the same. The op-ed was released in time for the premiere of the movie. Heard is being sued by her ex- husband. The op-ed lied about him being abusive and she was actually abusive to him. The general counsel of the American Civil Liberties Union said that the actress's op-ed in the Washington Post alluding to domestic abuse was timed with the release of the movie. In the trial's opening statements earlier this month, Benjamin Chew argued that Heard's op-ed was false and unfairly characterized Mr. Depp as a man who would violently abuse women.

The actor in the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean" alleges that she was abusive towards him and is seeking $50 million in damages. In court documents, Heard says that she is seeking $100 million in damages from her ex-boyfriend, Johnny Depp, who she says abused her while he was under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Heard publicly announced she would give $3.5 million of the $7 million she received from her divorce settlement with Johnny Depp to the American Civil Liberties Union, but the organization received only $1.3 million in her name, according to testimony on Thursday.
