Trouble for Johnny Depp continues to rise. It all began when the verdict of the libel suit was pronounced and his charges against The Sun were dismissed. This even led to the actor being ousted from JK Rowling’s Fantastic Beasts 3. Now, JD has been asked to pay £630,000 and permission to appeal has been denied too. Below is all the scoop you need.
For the unversed, Johnny was fighting a libel suit against the publishers of The Sun, NGN and their editor, Dan Wootton over an article that referred to him as a wife-beater. It was none other than ex-wife Amber Heard who provided evidence against him. The verdict came out earlier this month and the Pirates Of The Caribbean actor lost the battle.
In his lengthy note on Instagram, upon being ousted from Fantastic Beasts 3, Johnny Depp mentioned that he will keep fighting for his truth. In the latest development, the actor appealed against the judgement but has been denied the same. Instead, Mr Justice Nicol has ordered the actor to make an initial payment of almost £630,000 in legal fees.
