On the 17th day of Amber Heard vs Johnny Depp trial, the 'Aquaman' actor has claimed that her then husband 'tried to kill' her. 'This is a man who tried to kill me. Of course. It's scary. He's also my husband,' she said, while being cross questioned by Depp's lawyer on the alleged assault she faced in Australia in 2015. Heard has claimed that the actor sexually assaulted her with a liquor bottle, pushing it against her pubic bone.
However, Depp's lawyer has countered her allegation, saying that she had attacked Mr. Depp with a bottle due to which he lost the tip of his finger. 'That is incorrect,' she responded. 'I didn't assault Johnny ever. I couldn't,' she added.
Heard was also grilled on why she gifted a knife to the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' in 2012 amid the cycles of alleged assaults she was facing. She responded that she had given him the knife as a birthday present early in their relationship. 'I wasn't worried he was going to stab me with it when I gave it to him. That's for certain,' she said.
The lawyer also countered her testimony in which she had alleged that she was injured on her forearms, feet and jaw during the assault and asked why there were no medical records reflecting treatment for any of those injuries. Heard revealed that she did not seek treatment for her bruises she received from Depp.
Heard's two-day cross examination in Johnny Depp's $50 million defamation lawsuit ended on Tuesday (May 17th). She has been sued over a 2018 op-ed in Washington Post, in which she depicted herself to be a 'public figure representing domestic abuse.' Depp charged her even though his name wasn't mentioned in her article.
The stars met on the sets of 'The Rum Diary' in 2009 and started dating a year later. They got married in 2015. A year later, Heard filed for divorce, accusing Depp of physical assault while under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Their divorce was finalized in 2017.

The 75th Cannes Film Festival kicked off Tuesday with an eye turned to Russia's war in Ukraine and a live satellite video address from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who called on a new generation of filmmakers to confront dictators as Charlie Chaplin satirised Adolf Hitler.
After tributes and musical numbers, Zelenskyy was streamed live for the formally attired audience who had gathered for the premiere of Michel Hazanavicius' zombie comedy “Final Cut." Zelenskyy, dressed in his signature olive green shirt, drew a thunderous standing ovation and spoke at length about the connection between cinema and reality. He referenced films like Francis Ford Coppola's “Apocalypse Now” and Charlie Chaplin's “The Great Dictator” as not unlike Ukraine's present circumstances.
Zelenskyy quoted Chaplin's final speech in “The Great Dictator,” which was released in 1940, in the early days of World War II: “The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people.” “We need a new Chaplin who will demonstrate that the cinema of our time is not silent,” implored Zelenskyy.
The Ukrainian president pushed filmmakers not to “stay silent” while hundreds continue to die in Ukraine, the largest war in Europe since WWII, and show that cinema “is always on the side of freedom.” The war is to be a regular presence in Cannes, where the festival has barred Russians with ties to the government from attending this year.
Set to screen are several films from prominent Ukrainian filmmakers, including Sergei Loznitsa's documentary “The Natural History of Destruction.” Footage shot by Lithuanian filmmaker Mantas Kvedaravicius before he was killed in Mariupol in April will also be shown by his fiancée, Hanna Bilobrova.
Even “Final Cut," the latest film from “The Artist” filmmaker Hazanavicius, was renamed from its original title, “Z,” after Ukrainian protesters noted that the letter Z to some symbolizes support for Russia's war in Ukraine.
Formally attired stars including Eva Longoria, Julianne Moore, Bérénice Bejo and “No Time to Die” star Lashana Lynch were among those who streamed down Cannes' famous red carpet Tuesday.
More star-studded premieres — “Top Gun: Maverick!" “Elvis!" — await over the next 12 days, during which 21 films will vie for the festival's prestigious top award, the Palme d'Or.
But Tuesday's opening and the carefully choreographed red-carpet parade leading up the steps to the Grand Théâtre Lumiére again restored one of the movies' grandest pageants after two years of pandemic that have challenged the exalted stature Cannes annually showers on cinema.
“Dear friends, let's come out of this dark together,” said opening ceremony host Virginie Efira.
After last year requiring regular COVID-19 testing and masks in theatres — and no kisses on the red carpet — Cannes has largely done away with pandemic protocols. Masks are recommended inside but are rarely worn.
Cannes presented an honorary Palme d'Or to Forest Whitaker, who received a standing ovation. Whitaker, who won best actor at Cannes 34 years ago for his performance as Charlie Parker in Clint Eastwood's “Bird,” said that while ascending the steps to the Palais des Festivals on Tuesday, he could still hear chants of “Clint! Clint!” ringing in his ears.
Eastwood is one of few others who have been awarded an honorary Palme.
On Tuesday, Cannes also unveiled the jury that will award the Palme d'Or. French actor Vincent Lindon is leading a jury that includes Deepika Padukone, Rebecca Hall, Asghar Farhadi, Trinca, Ladj Ly, Noomi Rapace, Jeff Nichols, and Joachim Trier.
Questions of gender equality have long surrounded the Cannes Film Festival, where no more than five female filmmakers have ever been a part of the Palme competition lineup and only two women directors have won it.
On Monday, Fremaux defended the festival, arguing that it selects films purely on the basis of quality. Hall, who last year made her directorial debut with the film “Passing,” was asked about her opinion on Cannes' record.
“I believe that it is a work in progress. I mean for the whole film industry, not just the Cannes Film Festival," replied Hall. “The way of dealing with these things needs to be addressed on a grassroots level as well. It's not just the festivals or public-facing situations. It's about all the minutiae of what goes into the industry at large." Farhadi, the Oscar-winning Iranian director, also spoke for the first time about an ongoing plagiarism suit regarding his previous film, “A Hero,” which won the Grand Prix in Cannes last year. A former film student of Farhadi's, Azadeh Masihzadeh, has accused him of stealing the idea of the film from a 2018 documentary she made in a workshop taught by Farhadi.
Speaking at length, Farhadi said “A Hero” was not based on the documentary.
“It was based on a current event so this documentary and this film are based on an event that happened two years prior to the workshop,” said Farhadi. "When an event takes place and is covered by the press, then it becomes public knowledge and you can do what you like about the event. You can write a story or make a film about the event. You can look up the information on this event. A Hero' is just one interpretation of this event.”

Amber Heard resumed her testimony in Depp's $50 million defamation trial against her on Monday (May 16), post a 10-day break. She spoke extensively about the final months of her marriage with the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' actor, how she tried to cover her scars with makeup and how the ongoing trial was affecting her mental health.
During the testimony, Heard claimed that she begged her ex-husband to stop calling her 'a liar' and to stop the smear campaign against her. “I was begging Johnny to not make me prove... to sit on this stand and to sit in front of you all to prove and talk about [the abuse],” she said. “I was trying to get him to not call me a liar as everything I have said to date and everything I have said now is the truth,” she added.
Heard also claimed that she didn't file criminal charges or a police report against Depp as she wanted to protect him and not bring out the case in the public eye. "I didn't want this to hurt Johnny," she said.
The 'Aquaman' actor says the public feud with Depp has been a 'torture' to her as she receives numerous accusations from his supporters saying she's lying about the abuse. "I want to move on with my life. I have a baby. I want to move on. I want to move on. I want Johnny to move on too, I want him to leave me alone," she said.
Depp sued his ex-wife over an op-ed she wrote for The Washington Post, in which she claimed that she was a domestic abuse survivor. Though she didn't name the 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' actor in her article, Depp sued her. During her testimony, Heard explained her intention behind publishing the 2018 op-ed and said, "It's not about Johnny. The only one who thought it was about Johnny is Johnny. It's about me and what happened to me after Johnny, it is about me after I escaped my marriage, it is about me and my life and what I endured once I got a TRO (temporary restraining order) and moved on with my life. It was about what happened to me after. The only one who made it about him, ironically, is Johnny."
Amber Heard and Johnny Depp had met on the sets of 'The Rum Diary' in 2009 and they started dating a year later. They tied the knot in 2015. A year later, Heard filed for divorce alleging that Depp had physically abused her while under the influence of drugs or alcohol during their marriage. Their divorce was finalized in 2017.
