Where to watch Depp v. Heard docuseries

In April 2022, formerly married actors Johnny Depp and Amber Heard went to trial over allegations of defamation in Fairfax County, Virginia. Depp was suing Heard for $50 million in damages, claiming her 2018 op-ed piece in The Washington Post where she spoke out against sexual abuse tanked his career even though she never mentioned Depp by name. Heard filed countersuit claims for $100 million.

For the next two months, the case transformed into a social media phenomenon as it became the first “Trial by TikTok.” In Depp v. Heard, director Emma Cooper explores the defamation case through the eyes of social media and how public opinion had a major role in shaping the world’s viewpoints of the two actors. View information on how to stream the three-part docuseries below.
