The fortune of Johnny Depp? Find out what his shaky heritage is
The artist who has long been one of Hollywood's favorite actors has lost a lot of money
The fortune of Johnny Depp is, without a doubt, the most common question that the controversial case of Depp Vs. Heard brings us.
If you live under a rock and have not heard about this case, the eccentric actor accuses his ex-wife of defamation, and asks for compensation of 50 million dollars.His divorce and a previous Heard lawsuit against Depp, has earned the actor more than 100 million. In addition , he has lost large projects such as Disney and Warner Bros. For this reason, the question wanders on the networks: How much is Depp's fortune at this time?
How much is Johnny Depp's fortune currently estimated?
According to the media, they report that Johnny Depp's fortune is 150 million dollars, a large sum that is totally depressed compared to the figures that the actor previously had.
What were those factors that led him to lose so much money? (Aside from his eccentric tastes, of course.)
In this article we discuss those factors that pushed Johnny Depp's fortune to decline, and why he is currently threatened with losing another 100 million of his net worth. Do not miss it! Keep reading.
Johnny Depp lost 655 million for his manager
A long career full of unforgettable characters made Johnny Depp, for a few years, the highest paid actor in Hollywood and he claims to have found out about this fact very late.
Depp defends that he did not know that he had won a gigantic amount for the Pirates of the Caribbean saga. The sum of money was never delivered to him. What happened?
In the year 2017, Johnny Depp sues his Manager for theft and for not having paid taxes for anything more and less than 17 long years.
The figure offered by Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean after box office sales was $655 million. Millions that his Manager and his contractors denied him.
The tax debt was the hardest to settle, since by having a large sum of assets, the prices of the property only grow more and more.
Johnny Depp paid all his debt to the United States government, but what was not expected is that little more than a year later, Heard took another large amount of money from him.
Amber Heard took $7 million from Johnny Depp
After his divorce, the actor doubled the estate of his ex-wife, Amber Heard, Seven times more! The Mera impersonation of Aquaman, previously had a net worth of nearly 3 million.
According to the original agreement, Amber asked for $50,000 a month in child support, but overnight, she changed her mind. And his attorney requested $7 million for his client.
Said number, Depp decided to fragment it a bit to donate it to the children's hospital in Los Angeles, with which Heard agreed. Johnny Depp gave 6.8 million to his ex-wife for the divorce.
Before, they had also created an agreement in front of the court. Where Amber Heard promised to donate another part of the large sum of money to the same children's hospital.
The issue of Amber's payment is currently being discussed in court.
Today this issue is being discussed in court in the Depp Vs. Heard case, because according to reports, Amber Heard currently has a net worth of $9 million. That is, he has not fulfilled his part of the deal with Johnny Depp.
The children's hospital in Los Angeles has not received any donation from the Heard, but the actress's lawyers defend that their client wanted to pay it in parts.
This is one of the great tests that Johnny Depp has against Amber Heard, and that offers him a great advantage of winning the trial. Furthermore, such tests have cleared his name in front of the public and most of the industry.
How much value did Johnny Depp's fortune lose after his ex-wife's accusation?
Not only did he lose the 7 million dollars requested by Amber Heard after the divorce, he actually lost much more due to his accusation of domestic violence during his marital relationship with the actress.
Disney's proposal to make a sixth installment of Pirates of the Caribbean, for 22.5 million dollars, was discarded by the board of the mouse company.
It is a business after all, the entertainment business. They did not think that Depp's conflict was something defensible, nor that it was good to have any relationship with the actor.
Today, Johnny says that he will not work with Disney again, not even because they offer him 300 million dollars. Refusing in any way to return to the company that turned its back on him.
In the current trial
In the current trial, Depp's fortune has lost another 22 million in hiring the necessary lawyers to be able to prove to everyone, in front of a court, that he is innocent.
Which is slowly subtracting what is left of your estate. Although, not everything is bad. The actor has two wild cards up his sleeve, which do not leave him reeling on the monetary issue.
Johnny has dared to sell his paintings to recover some of the lost money
After continually shaky times in monetary terms, Johnny Depp's fortune tries to flourish at any rate. Although, clearly, recovering almost 700 million will not be easy.
Much less when many of the doors of work in Hollywood have been closed for Captain Jack Sparrow, and with the possibility of losing 100 million more of his assets, if he is defeated in the current trial against Amber Heard.
For this reason he has created a collection of NFTs called “Never Fear Truth”. Bringing to life a symbol of freedom against his previous inability to defend himself against accusations of mistreatment of his ex-wife.

Johnny Depp's fortune is also increased by his large properties
Johnny Depp owns a French town in the city of Provence, which is called "Plan de la Tour". For several years he has been improving it to raise its price and sell it.
But this great property has not been sold in 2015, nor in 2017, and has not been able to sell it since last year, when it was put up for sale again. Today it is valued at $55.5 million.
Not only does it have this quaint modern little hamlet, it also has several houses, 14 properties to be explicit. All around the world.
These wild cards give Johnny Depp's fortune a shot if he loses the currently televised and viral trial.
