Megan Davis and Mark Harpa have been cast to portray Johnny Depp and Amber Heard in the upcoming movie, Hot Take: The Depp/Heard Trial. The film is based on the Johnny Depp vs Amber Heard defamation trial. Surprisingly, however, Megan Davis recently revealed that she had not watched the trial or the Aquaman star’s movies.

During her appearance on the People Every Day podcast, Davis said that she had to prepare thoroughly for the trial scenes since people can easily compare them to the original footage. Davis continued:

“There’s difficulties with both, right? Because [with] the trial, you have the real footage, so you have to nail it, and you hope to nail it. Whereas with the reenactments, you don’t have the footage so you hope to get their energy right and who they are as people, right?”

Megan and Mark also told the director not to take sides and show the truth as it is. She mentioned:

“That’s true of any film or any piece of art in general. But I said for me, it’s very important to me to accurately and honestly portray everything that she said as truth. These are two real people and they deserve everything that we can possibly give to them in terms of protecting them.”
