The actor said that this publication cost him the roles. He demanded compensation in the amount of $ 50 million from his ex -wife. In response, he filed a lawsuit to recover one hundred million dollars from Depp, which accused the actor’s lawyer of defamation.
During the trial, which was watched live around the world, unsatisfactory details of the couple’s joint life film were made public.
