The anticipation for “Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom” has been building steadily, with fans wondering about the role of Amber Heard as Mera in the film. Recent reports have shed light on some scenes featuring the actress being removed from the movie.It was previously suggested that her role as Mera might be reduced in the sequel. During the high-profile defamation case between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard, the actress herself mentioned that Mera’s role had been scaled down.However, director James Wan has a different take on the matter. He asserted that Amber Heard’s role wasn’t limited in the sequel, emphasizing that “Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom” was always intended to shift the focus away from Mera.
Are Amber Heard scenes removed from Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom?
The recent report from Variety regarding “Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom” disclosed that scenes featuring Amber Heard were indeed removed from the film. According to the outlet, “at least” two sequences were deleted, including an action scene where Mera takes on Black Manta and a tender moment with Arthur.
These deletions put to rest the rumor that Amber Heard was completely removed from the movie. While her role has been a subject of speculation, a prior statement by The Wrap’s Umberto Gonzalez suggesting that she would appear in approximately 20 minutes of the film remains a possibility.
The initial promotional material for “Aquaman 2” hints that Amber Heard’s Mera will play a significantly reduced role in the film. Director James Wan’s statement reinforced that the sequel would prioritize the narratives of Arthur and Orm, rather than focusing on Mera and the King of the Seven Seas.As a result, fans can expect Mera to be pushed into the background, with her presence mainly serving as a mention rather than a central on-screen character. The deleted scenes have the potential to affect the flow of the film, particularly concerning the love story between Arthur and Mera. It remains to be seen how these changes will impact the overall viewing experience.
