The Johnny Depp vs Amber Heard documentary is all set to air on Netflix. Netizens on Twitter have a lot to say about their feelings on this.

&#8220;I can&#8217;t go through this again&#8221; &#8211; Fans Not Too Excited For Netflix&#8217;s Upcoming Courtroom Documentary About Johnny Depp and Amber Heard

Remember when the entire world sat on the edge of their seats in anticipation of
something in April 2022? And this was not a World Cup or the Oscars we are
talking about. It was the infamous Johnny Depp vs Amber Heard court trial that
had everybody binging the drama like a Netflix series. After all, there is
something about court dramas that gets netizens buzzing like a beehive.
Especially if the fighting parties are A-list celebrities from Hollywood.

It all started in 2018 with The Washington Post op-ed in which The Ward actress
penned down her experiences of speaking out against sexual abuse. This led to a
lawsuit against her by Depp’s legal team. Seeking $50 million in damages, their
claim was that the article had severely damaged his career. And the rest is
history. Notorious for its docuseries that follow similar themes, netizens had
an inkling that the streaming giant, Netflix, would not sit out this
opportunity. Lo-and-behold, Netflix officially announces Depp V Heard

to release on August 16.

As the highly publicized trial commenced in Virginia back in April 2022, it
turned into six weeks of ruthless media coverage. With widespread speculation
from the public, the highly debated case broke headlines every day. Netizens
were regularly plastering every corner of the internet with opinions on whose
side they were on. Directed by Emma Cooper, the upcoming series claims to
present a neutral view of the trial where public opinion became more important
than the actual truth.

It will include courtroom testimonies along with clips from mainstream news and
social media platforms to give a bird’s-eye view of the impact this trial was
having worldwide. One may think that docuseries covering this highly
controversial event would reignite public interest in the now fairly dormant
topic. After all, Netflix has become quite popular for diving into the traumas
of victims through their true crime and social documentary shows. But the
reaction Netflix’s announcement has had online may surprise you.


NETIZENS HAVE SOME HARSH CRITICISMS FOR NETFLIX

The Pirates of the Caribbean actor may have won the case, but his fans are
enraged that Netflix is choosing to drag on the unfortunate topic. What’s more,
even Heard’s supporters are showing their displeasure over Netflix trying to
bank on her defeat. One Twitter user who is not having it simply said, “I can’t
go through this again.”

Unfortunately for these Twitter users, they cannot turn back time or stop the
documentary from airing. Regardless of the backlash, we are sure the documentary
will have people flocking to rewatch the courtroom drama all over again.
