CinemaCon was full of surprises, as the first trailer for “Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom” was dropped. Another bombshell that was dropped? Amber Heard being in the preview, confirming that the rumors of her being cut from the movie were just rumors. According to Insider, the actor’s character, Mera, was shown in two shots and she didn’t speak in either of them, indicating that her character may have less significance in the second film of the franchise.
In response to the verdict of Johnny Depp and Heard’s defamation trial, a Change.org petition was made by someone to remove all of the “Zombieland” actor’s scenes from the second “Aquaman” movie. “Action must be taken to prevent a known abuser from being celebrated within the entertainment industry,” petition’s description says. “Do the right thing. Remove Amber Heard from Aquaman 2.” Over 4.5 million people have signed the petition.

But the movie’s producer shut down the thought that fans could control Heard’s future in the franchise. “We felt that if it’s James Wan, and Jason Momoa, it should be Amber Heard,” he told Variety. “That’s really what it was. You have to do what’s right for the film, and that’s really where we landed on it.”
