After a long battle forAquaman and the Lost Kingdomwith petitions and reshoots; the movie might finally be finding some direction. What once started as reshoots to increase the role of Ben Affleck’s Batman in the movie has perhaps soon enough turned into reshoots that would fit in having Amber Heard’s Mera removed from the project completely.

The major reshoots forAquaman and the Lost Kingdomhave been happening at such a large scale that almost every actor involved in the project has been asked to come back for a couple of scenes. This, however, would happen to not involve Amber Heard.

Amber Heard Might Not Be In Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom

It has been reported thatAmber Heardmight not have been asked to return for the reshoots ofAquaman and the Lost Kingdom,or rather, the reshoots are happening to remove her role from the movie itself. The actress plays Princess Mera, who is an assassin as well as a warrior, along with the main love interest for Jason Momoa’s Arthur Curry, aka, Aquaman.

Rumors that first began as the actress being replaced from the role by Emilia Clarke were then botched down to reshoots making her role minimal, close to none in the movie. Her entire debacle in the Depp v. Heard defamation trial led fans to go against the actress, to the extent that they wished to boycott her. The petition that demanded Heard be removed from the movie completely was responded to by the DCEU to give her only the bare minimum role, not being able to completely remove her from the movie.
