Emma Gillespie is here. Johnny Depp. 6 00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:21,160 Speaker 4: Hello, Johnny Depp is back in the headlines. He's done 7 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:24,439 Speaker 4: this extensive sit down interview with The Sunday Times. It 8 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 4: apparently went for four hours and the actor consumed a 9 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 4: broad range of drinks with. 10 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:31,400 Speaker 5: Journalists Jonathan Dean. 11 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:33,839 Speaker 4: They started with Uproll, they moved onto red Wine, so 12 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:35,919 Speaker 4: basically they proceeded to get more and more drunk over 13 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:38,440 Speaker 4: the course of the four hours, and it shows. It 14 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 4: is a rambling interview. The magazine the paper describes it 15 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:45,680 Speaker 4: as much. But in case you need a quick refresher, 16 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:48,479 Speaker 4: Johnny Depp has kind of been, i suppose, in the 17 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:51,520 Speaker 4: shadows or on the fringes of pop culture ever since 18 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:55,000 Speaker 4: he garnered all this global attention for these trials with 19 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 4: and the Herd his ex wife. So they got married 20 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 4: in twenty fourteen. There's a thirteen year age gap there. 21 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 4: Heard took him to court in the UK. She successfully 22 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 4: won a trial there because there was a defamation conversation 23 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 4: she'd written an op iRED the son in the UK 24 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 4: called him a wife beat up, but the judge found 25 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 4: that the great majority of alleged assaults of Misheard by 26 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 4: Depp had been proved, so she won that. Then there 27 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,959 Speaker 4: was a second trial in the US. This is probably 28 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 4: the one you're more familiar. 29 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 3: D Yeah, it's funny that very highly publicized. 30 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 4: Took place in twenty twenty two. It was streamed live 31 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,839 Speaker 4: on YouTube. It was this whole circus the whole world 32 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 4: watched where essentially Johnny Depp won that defamation case and 33 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 4: it discredited Amber Heard. So it's fifty to fifty in 34 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:43,839 Speaker 4: terms of his wins and losses in the court. 35 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:45,759 Speaker 5: Since then, he's lost work. 36 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 4: He was dropped from the Fantastic Beasts Harry Potter franchise films, 37 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 4: his agent dropped him, and he's done this interview where 38 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 4: he says that he is a crash test or was 39 00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:00,120 Speaker 4: a crash test dummy for the Me too movement. It's 40 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:03,000 Speaker 4: an interesting one because during the defamation trial he accused 41 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 4: Amber Heard of seeking popularity and fame on the me 42 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 4: too wave. Now he's kind of saying that it was 43 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 4: all pre that and. 44 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 5: He was a victorist. One exactly. 45 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 4: He said it had gone far enough in terms of 46 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 4: the trial, and that he knew he'd have to semi 47 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 4: and viscerate himself. Everyone was saying it'll go away, but 48 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 4: I can't trust that. He said, the fiction pawned around 49 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 4: the globe. It wouldn't go away, And if I didn't 50 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,079 Speaker 4: try to represent the truth, it would be like I'd 51 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 4: actually committed the acts I was accused of. So he 52 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 4: said he wasn't nervous about the trial, that he told 53 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 4: the truth the entire time. He did have a lot 54 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 4: to say about feeling betrayed by his friends and colleagues 55 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 4: in the industry. 56 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 5: But I mean, what kind of choice do they have? 57 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,519 Speaker 4: It was very damning the allegations now, the way he 58 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:53,239 Speaker 4: treated Amber heard. Whether or not it's true, who knows. 59 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 4: One court says it is, one court says it isn't. 60 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 4: But he seems to really be on this. I guess, 61 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 4: comeback only this trail to sort of prove his innocence. 62 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: That he had and all that new wave of young 63 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 1: men saying you know that rise above what the women 64 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:10,359 Speaker 1: in a way. 65 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 3: So all that Andrew Tates stuff. 66 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, there'll be a whole lot of people who will 67 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,640 Speaker 1: and woman too, who will support him through all of this? 68 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 5: Yes, and who did? 69 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 4: And I mean public sentiment at the time of that 70 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 4: US trial really heavily swayed in Johnny Depp's favor. 71 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 1: And as we were just saying, the social media was 72 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: flooded with bots, and as you say, you said to 73 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,239 Speaker 1: me just off air, Emma, that this was well documented 74 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:34,639 Speaker 1: that the Saudi's funded these bots that were pro Johnny 75 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 1: depth through all the social media. 76 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 5: Fascinating. 77 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 4: There's been all these investigations in the years since. There's 78 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 4: a great podcast as a documentary all about this calculated 79 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 4: effort to program social media accounts, fake accounts, to flood 80 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 4: the Internet with all this hatred and vilification of Amber Herd. 81 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 4: And I'm not suggesting that there's not some really toxic, 82 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 4: abusive behavior possibly on both sides in that relationship, but 83 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 4: it was very, very dominated by this pro Johnny Depp 84 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 4: anti Amber heard sentiment. 85 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 5: I mean, he's always continued to work. 86 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 4: He never lost his door campaign, you know that part.
