Interestingly, new information ensures that it was her problems with Jason Momoa, the actor who brings Aquaman to life, and the lack of chemistry between the performers, which seriously jeopardized her continuity in the franchise.
According to the president of DC Films, Walter Hamada, initially, Heard, who repeated as Mera in Zack Snyder's "Justice League", was not going to return with the character in the sequel to "Aquaman", which is being prepared by Warner Bros. .with James Wan, as the actress was concerned about the poor connection with her co-star.
However, despite the fact that Heard ended up shooting all her scenes as Mera for "Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom", she was unable to improve the salary conditions of her contract and for the moment she has not received offers to play more lucrative roles. Something that the legal team of the actress assures that it is due to the legal lawsuits with Deep.
And it is that the former celebrity couple has not stopped
attacking each other with crossed accusations of mistreatment and
defamation, which have harmed the professional careers of both actors.
Precisely, Hamada went to trial for Heard's slander with Deep as a result of
an article published by the actress herself in the Washington Post in 2018.
