And everything seems to indicate that it will follow the same path\u2026 or even worse.

She was the co-star of Aquaman 2 alongside Jason Momoa, but her reputation had declined so much that it was a bad idea to have her on set\u2026 and on top of that, she had a terrible relationship with Momoa, who even appeared on set dressed as Depp to annoy her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of this led to a very difficult situation that made Warner not want to have her for the sequel. However, someone intervened: Elon Musk. That&#8217;s right, <strong>the magnate who owns Twitter is also Heard&#8217;s ex-boyfriend<\/strong>, and apparently, they maintained a good relationship for a while, which led the director to threaten Warner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/10\/aquaman-2-lol-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-254098\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/10\/aquaman-2-lol-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/10\/aquaman-2-lol-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/10\/aquaman-2-lol-768x431.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/10\/aquaman-2-lol-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/10\/aquaman-2-lol-664x374.jpg 664w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/10\/aquaman-2-lol-238x134.jpg 238w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/10\/aquaman-2-lol-436x246.jpg 436w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/10\/aquaman-2-lol-370x208.jpg 370w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/10\/aquaman-2-lol-304x170.jpg 304w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/10\/aquaman-2-lol-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/10\/aquaman-2-lol.jpg 1282w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s right, as reported by <a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2023\/film\/news\/aquaman-2-jason-momoa-drunk-claims-amber-heard-cut-scenes-elon-musk-letter-1235747775\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" title=\"\">Variety<\/a> through an anonymous tip-off, Musk sent a letter to Warner&#8217;s lawyers, promising to have his attorneys &#8220;<strong>turn everything upside down<\/strong>&#8221; if the studio didn&#8217;t bring Amber back for Aquaman 2.
