The Johnny Depp versus Amber Heard trial is one of the most talked about dramas in Hollywood, the trial removed any sense of privacy that either actor had, and both parties accused each other of heinous crimes such as domestic violence and substance abuse. The case got extremely complicated and layered, and both parties could not escape the paparazzi and the public opinion which sabotaged their career in Hollywood.
The trial was monitored very closely by the media, while Amber Heard accused Johnny Depp of hitting her and bruising her face. In return, the Rango actor accused that his partner had allegedly cheated on him with several A-listed celebrities, including Channing Tatum while they were shooting the 2014 film, Magic Mike XXL.
Amber Heard Had Allegedly Cheated On Johhny Depp With Several Celebrities
During one of the hearings, Amber Heard stated how Johnny Depp was “very jealous,” when they were in a relationship and considered her male co-stars a “sexual threat.” She continued explaining that the Sleepy Hollow actor had accused her of “having affairs with each of my co-stars.”
“He accused me of having affairs with each of my co-stars, movie after movie: Eddie Redmayne, James Franco, Jim Sturgess, Kevin Costner, Liam Hemsworth, Billy-Bob Thornton, Channing Tatum; even women co-stars like Kelli Garner.”
The London Fields actress continued, that Depp would “taunt” her about it when he was intoxicated, calling Leonardo DiCaprio as “pumpkin-head” and Channing Tatum as “potato-head” or “Jim Turd Sturgess.”
“He would taunt me about it — especially when he was drunk or high — and had derogatory nicknames for every one of my male co-stars he considered a sexual threat,” she said in the statement.”
“For example, Leonardo DiCaprio was ‘pumpkin-head,’ [Magic Mike XXL co-star] Channing Tatum was ‘potato-head’ and ‘Jim Turd Sturgess.’”
Heard continued her testimony, adding how Johnny Depp would often tell her that he knew about her affairs, despite her claims to be faithful during their relationship.
“He would try and catch me out by taking my phone or telling me someone had told him I was having an affair and act as if he had information proving it — when I really hadn’t.”
Even though Amber Heard claims that Johnny Depp had wrongly accused her of cheating on him, the chemistry between Heard and Tatum was striking in the film, and it did not end till the cameras were rolling, forcing Tatum’s then-wife, Jenna Dewan Tatum, to regularly visit the set of Magic Mike XXL.
Channing Tatum and Amber Heard’s Chemistry Tensed Their Relationship With Their Partners
Amber Heard who played the role of Zoe in Magic Mike XXL, played the love interest of Tatum in the sequel, and their on-screen chemistry was one of the key highlights of the film. The on-screen couple had scenes where they would dance, flirt, and even share intimate moments with each other to the point where everyone could see their fling.
As per OK! Magazine, a reliable source had talked to them about how the on-screen couple “were noticeably flirty” and “everybody saw it,” how they used to flirt, even though the cameras were not rolling. Their fling was immensely noticeable on the set of the movie, and it rose to that extent where “you could feel the tension when Jenna visited the set.”
It was also reported Tatum’s wife would often bring their daughter to the set of the film to remind the actor to stay focused on his family. However, things did not end well for either pair as Amber Heard and Johnny Depp divorced in 2017, while Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan Tatum went separate ways in 2019.
