Actors Megan Davis and Mark Hapka take on the roles of the former lovers-turned-bitter enemies in the new movie.
The trailer features flashbacks to drug use, fights, and romantic nights between the former husband and wife. It further shows spot-on recreations of Depp’s and Heard’s iconic courtroom looks.
In the Virginia defamation trial, which lasted more than a month, the celebrity exes bared all. Texts, videos, and photographs allowed viewers worldwide a rare glimpse into their former lives and relationship.
The courtroom battle stemmed from a 2018 op-ed penned by Heard, in which the actress claimed to be a “public figure representing domestic abuse.”
Ultimately, the jury found Heard liable for three counts of defamation against her ex-husband, while Depp was only found liable for one of his former flame’s accusations. Depp was ordered to pay $2 million to Heard, while she was ordered to pay $10.35 million, which her lawyer said she cannot afford.

Heard has since begun the appeals process, prompting her ex to similarly file an appeal of the singular count he was found liable for.
