Johnny Depp Resigns from "Fantastic Beasts"

A few hours ago, award-winning actor Johnny Depp issued a controversial statement regarding the latest legal dispute with Amber Heard.

Depp who lost his latest lawsuit against Heard stated that he was asked to resign from "Fantastic Beasts." He added that he was urged by Warner Bross and he accepted the request especially after Depp's latest accusations of domestic violence and harassment.

Finally, he added, “Finally, I wish to say this. The surreal judgment of the court in the U.K. will not change my fight to tell the truth and I confirm that I plan to appeal. My resolve remains strong and I intend to prove that the allegations against me are false. My life and career will not be defined by this moment in time.”

In the same context previously Bross hinted at Depp's departure away from the film in a separated statement according to the Rolling Stone website.
