Finally, take two on the Johnny Depp/Amber Heard story that was totally under covered last year.

The sequel on a shitty story now includes Jason Momoa and Elon Musk.

Tatiana Siegel of Variety dropped some scathing journalism on the behind the scenes anarchy of Aquaman 2: Electric Boogaloo, and it seems like a total disaster.

If you don’t want to read the entirety of it, the highlights are:

  1. Momoa took a few nips of grandpa’s old cough medicine and then showed up to set dressed up as Depp in an attempt to get Heard fired from the movie.
  2. Director James Wan basically hates Heard and stopped anyone from taking pictures with her on set.
  3. Super dork Elon Musk’s lawyers sending a “scorched-earth letter to Warner Bros. threatening to burn the house down” if his then-girlfriend Heard was fired.

Alright, a few points here.

First, Momoa already kind of dresses like Depp, so shut up. Secondly, who in the hell would want to take a selfie with Amber Heard. Finally, what does Musk going “scorched earth” on a movie production company look like? Would he throw a brick through their window?

All of this is to say, I don’t watch any superhero movies (other than Christopher Nolan Batman, those kicked ass), so I don’t know or care if these Aquaman (Aquamen?) movies are any good. But if there’s as much drama in the movies as there appears to have been behind the scenes, I’m sure it will be great.
