Previously, there were numerous rumours that the notorious trial of Johnny Depp and Amber Heard will be made into a documentary. Given that the trailer is now available, it is reasonable to say that the hotly contested defamation lawsuit involving Johnny Depp and Amber Heard will be the focus of a new film, “Hot Take: The Depp/Heard Trial,” and the trailer is finally launched just two days before its OTT premiere.

The star couple’s turbulent relationship, both inside and outside of court, will also be followed in Hot Take. According to reports, it is a dramatisation of the two-month trial that ended on June 1, with the jury deciding that Heard defamed Depp by making reference to domestic abuse charges against him in a December 2018 op-ed piece.
