    Johnny Depp Requests Delay of Defamation Trial to Film 'Fantastic Beasts 3'

    WENN

    The ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ actor seeks postponement to the trial for his defamation lawsuit against ex-wife Amber Heard to accommodate filming of the ‘Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald’ sequel.
    Sep 2, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Johnny Depp’s legal drama with his ex-wife Amber Heard is going to take a longer time to be settled. The actor is seeking a delay of trial for his defamation lawsuit against the “Aquaman” actress because of the upcoming production of “Fantastic Beasts 3”.
    Due to the COVID-19, filming on the David Yates-directed movie was put on hold earlier this year. Now that the British government has allowed some projects to resume filming in London with strict protocols, production on the “Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald” sequel is set to pick back up again starting in October and possibly extending into February 2021, conflicting with the defamation trial set to take place from January 11 to 28 next year.
    “When the Court set the current trial date in this case, Mr. Depp understood that Warner Bros. planned to shoot ‘Fantastic Beasts 3’ in London long before January 11, 2021. COVID-19 disrupted the studio’s plans, causing repeated postponements,” Depp’s lawyers says in court papers. “With conditions in London having improved somewhat, Warner Bros. has now set a shooting schedule that conflicts with the trial date in this case.”
    Depp says he was notified on August 19 that he’s called back to work from early October through mid-February. He also asks the trial to be postponed until sometime between on March and June 2021.
    “Mr. Depp would face potential liability for breach of contract should he fail to comply with the schedule contractually dictated by Warner Bros.,” states the filing. “Though Mr. Depp is eager to proceed to trial, he faces an untenable situation over which he has no control.”
    In the motion, Depp additionally argues that Heard’s recent response and $100 million counterclaim warrants a postponement. The legal papers note that the “London Fields” star has agreed to meet on September 11 to discuss the potential delay and that the proposed postponement “would not entail any prejudice to her, much less unfair prejudice” because she’s expected to film “Aquaman 2” sometime in 2021.
    Depp’s motion for the delay of the defamation trial hereby shut down rumors that the Academy Award-nominated actor and the “Magic Mike XXL” star would be fired from their respective projects. Words were Warner Bros. was considering to replace the 57-year-old actor in “Fantastic Beasts 3” and the 34-year-old actress in “Aquaman 2” due to the bad press regarding their legal drama.

    John David Washington Had to Unlearn What He Is Used to Doing for 'Tenet' Role

    Warner Bros.

    The ‘BlacKkKlansman’ actor reveals that director Christopher Nolan instructed his stunt team to create fight scenes in reverse and asked his cast to learn to speak backwards.
    Sep 1, 2020
    AceShowbiz – John David Washington had to learn to do everything backwards for his latest role in director Christopher Nolan’s ambitious “Tenet”.
    The “BlackKklansman” star reveals Nolan instructed his stunt team to create fight scenes in reverse, while calling on his cast to learn to speak backwards.
    “I had to learn how to blink, walk, talk, fight, run, block, punch backwards and forwards…,” the former professional sportsman tells “Good Morning America”. “It was a great challenge for me having a football background, being able to unlearn what I’m used to doing.”
    “We were sort of discovering these moves together with the stunt coordinators… It was a great experience. It was taxing on the body but it was worth it for sure.”

    But learning to speak in reverse was a real head scratcher and Washington turned to an app for help.
    “You speak a line or a word into the app and it says it backwards to you and you learn how to say that…,” he adds. “Some of the best work I’ve ever seen from an actor came from Kenneth Branagh – he was also saying his lines backwards but with a Russian accent… It was insane.”

    'The Bachelorette': Clare Crawley Asks for Respect in New Teaser

    ABC

    Fans, however, notice that the new video doesn’t feature Tayshia Adams, who reportedly will replace Clare after she allegedly found love early in one of her suitors.
    Sep 1, 2020
    AceShowbiz – ABC has released a new promo for “The Bachelorette” season 16 featuring Clare Crawley. Shared on Monday, August 31, the video shows the 39-year-old dancing in a white gown as she’s surrounded by the show’s signature red rose petals.
    She appears to be demanding respect from the suitors. A scene of her telling off former “The Bachelor” star Juan Pablo in her first season on the show is played in the background.
    “Do you think you know me?” she told Juan at the time, adding, “I’ve been down this road before. I want respect.” Further emphasizing the message, the new teaser is set to Aretha Franklin’s “Respect”.
    Fans, however, notice that the new video doesn’t feature Tayshia Adams, who reportedly will replace Clare in the middle of her season after she allegedly found love early in one of her suitors.

    Prior to this, “The Bachelorette” announced through a poster that the new season will premiere on October 13. “Get ready Bachelor Nation! @clarecrawley’s season of #TheBachelorette premieres Tuesday, October 13th at 8|7c on ABC. It’s about time,” the show wrote on its official Instagram account. The poster featured Clare donning a silver blazer and denim pants while holding a flower.
    One thing that caught people’s attention the most was one leg that was shown in the middle part of the poster. Fans were unsurprisingly confused by the bizarre addition. Someone even joked in the comment section, “Is that Tayshia’s leg be honest.” Another fan added, “Damn ABC should of hired us for the visual design. This is just terrible blending.”
    Season 16 of the ABC dating show will be different from any preceding seasons in the franchise’s history. According to an insider, “the season will still lead with Clare and her short-lived journey, and will show Clare falling in love with one of her suitors. Clare will then conclude her journey and announce that Tayshia is the lead.”
    “Clare allegedly fell in love with one of the guys while the show’s production was delayed due to Coronavirus pandemic. One of her potential guys found a way to get in touch with her and they began talking. By the time filming officially began, they were basically already in love. No one else stood a chance. It just became so obvious from her subsequent few dates that her heart wasn’t in it and she just wasn’t feeling it. Then she said she wanted out,” the source continued.
