Fans were outraged when it was revealed that it was Amber Heard that was abusive when it came to her relationship with Johnny Depp, and a lot of people want her taken out of Aquaman 2. What's funny is, some fans now want Jason Momoa's Game of Thrones co-star Emilia Clarke to replace Heard in the franchise, and they made up an entire petition to get it done.
According to the Emilia Clarke to replace amber heard as Mera on Aquaman 2 petition on Change.org:
Amber heard should be replaced by Emilia Clarke as Mera, Amber heard has falsely accused Johnny Depp of abusing her when it turns out she is the abuser herself I feel like if she stays on the movie/ franchise this will send a bad message, we should not condone any type of abuse if the Aquaman writers brought awareness to the pollution in the water and how our sea animals die, then why would they keep an abuser?
The petition is still pretty early, and at the time of this writing, the number of signatures is at 291. I admit, it's a good bit of fan-casting, but I don't think it's worth to make a petition about it. Someone should tell these guys how to make Twitter campaigns because I'm sure there are more urgent petitions on Change that need attention.
So far, it doesn't seem like WB wants to do any changes when it comes to the Aquaman sequel. Then again, with more people speaking out against Heard, it's possible that a change could be made. Personally I like continuity, but if a lot of people think that Heard doesn't deserve to work in the franchise again, I'm not going to stop them from voicing out their opinions.
Aquaman 2 is set to release on Dec 16, 2022.
