Depp blames Heard’s op-ed for that, noting that Disney dropped him just days after the article ran.
Heard’s attorney Ben Rottenborn asked Depp during cross-examination last month.

Newman didn’t seem amused, but the question sent Depp into a fit of giggles.
“I thought the alpacas might brighten his day,” she said in an interview last month.
“He just looked surprised and kind of happy as he was driving by.”
