Heard’s breakthrough came in 2011 when she starred opposite Johnny Depp in The Rum Diary, a film based on Hunter S. Thompson’s novel.
This role not only brought her more recognition but also led to her relationship with Depp, which would later dominate media headlines.
It was her role as Mera in the DC Extended Universe, first appearing in Justice League (2017) and more prominently in Aquaman (2018), that solidified her status as a major Hollywood actress.
But Heard’s personal life has often overshadowed her professional achievements.
Her relationship with Johnny Depp, which began around 2011, became highly publicized.
The couple married in 2015, but their marriage quickly deteriorated.
