Johnny Depp & Amber Heard — The $50M Trial
3.5B views. Most-watched trial ever. $10.35M verdict. Career resurrections.
Johnny Depp and Amber Heard's 2022 defamation trial wasn't a traditional settlement, but its $50 million in claims and $100 million in counterclaims dwarfed Tiger Woods' $110 million payout in cultural impact. Depp won $10.35 million; Heard won $2 million. The real cost? Heard's career vanished, while Depp's resurrected. The internet delivered more damage than any judge, making this the most-watched trial ever and a referendum on #MeToo.
