Some great Johnny Depp films you can stream

After weeks of explosive testimony and jury deliberations, the defamation case between star Johnny Depp and ex-wife Amber Heard has finally ended.

The seven-person jury found Depp had been defamed by Heard when she described herself in a 2018 op-ed in The Washington Post as a "public figure representing domestic abuse". While Depp celebrates the verdict, Heard plans to appeal the jury's decision.

Whether or not Depp's career can bounce back is yet to be seen. However, in the meantime, let's have a look at his past works available on streaming channels.
