The company seems to continue to endorse Amber Heard, which means she’s probably not going to lose her role as Mera.
In the first installment, Aquaman had to retrieve the legendary Atlan trident to save Atlantis, and the surface world from his power-hungry brother.
Aquaman 2 is one of the most anticipated movies for DC fans; however, after the audios revealed by Johnny Depp against Amber Heard, the sequel seemed to escape her.
Fans do not want Mera’s interpreter in the franchise anymore and have requested in every possible way that she be removed. Rumors seemed to indicate that they were already looking for her replacement, but Warner Bros. came out and showed its support for the actress again.
The company seems to be willing not to get involved in the couple’s problem, so from their Twitter account they published a birthday message greeting Jason Momoa’s partner. Immediately criticism began to overflow with negative comments, but this does not seem to matter much to the executives.
Happy Birthday Amber Heard! Here's to a fin-tastic day 💙 pic.twitter.com/mfUqVzozLE

Disgusting. If she was a man, she would be fired by now.

Don't mix personal life with work. Amber Heard is our Mera and I can't wait to see her in Aquaman 2.

WB should simply offer Johnny Depp a role in DC Films, to make up for his lost franchises. pic.twitter.com/8mamG7VWMW

The initiative originated on the Change.org portal has already reached 400,000 signatures, demonstrating the solidarity of the company’s fans towards the Pirates of the Caribbean star. However, despite the fact that the application is gaining more and more fans, DC has yet to give any official statement that they are going to fire Amber Heard from Aquaman 2.
