Thereafter, she was seen in many small-budget productions and independent films. These include The Adderall Diaries (2015), The Joneses (2009), The Danish Girl (2015), The Rum Diary (2011).
Then, the year 2017 saw her become part of the DC Extended Universe in the superhero movie Justice League, where she played the role of Mera, the Atlantean Queen.

Early Life
Amber Laurel Heard was born on 22nd April 1986 in Austin, Texas, US. When she was 17 years old, she shifted to New York City after dropping out of her Catholic school. Even so, she pursued a diploma via home school. Whilst she was in New York, Heard supported herself by modelling, after which she went to Los Angeles for a career in acting.
Personal Life
Heard’s most talked about relationship is with Johnny Depp. The pair was dating through the years 2012 to 2015. Subsequently, in the year 2015, their relationship culminated into marriage; they got hitched in a civil ceremony.
The couple was married from the years 2015 to 2017 before they applied for divorce. Heard accused Depp of domestic violence, citing abuse to be the reason for their split.
On the other hand, Depp claimed Heard was abusive and filed a defamation suit against her; this case will go to trial in May 2021.
The High Court of Justice, in November 2020, ruled that Depp was the guilty party, while they found many of Heard’s allegations meeting civil standards.
