Johnny Depp<\/a><\/strong>has new evidence that he believes will prove he never beat his then-wife\u00a0Amber Heard<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This evidence will be used in Depp’s libel case against the U.K. tabloid,\u00a0The Sun<\/em>, which ran an article<\/a>\u00a0by Dan Wootton<\/strong>\u00a0that called the star a “wife-beater.” The story also criticized\u00a0J.K. Rowling<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0for allowing the actor to continue to star in the\u00a0Dangerous Beasts\u00a0<\/em>franchise, despite reports of his alleged abusive behavior.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In a statement to E! News, the actor’s attorney,\u00a0Adam Waldman<\/strong>, revealed, “Today we filed a partial list of evidence that we will use to disprove the fraudulent underlying allegations against Mr Depp.”<\/p>\n

Included in the filing were references to “dozens of video security tapes,” as well as “eyewitness statements, newly discovered sworn affidavits and deposition transcripts from 2016, and text messages between the Sun<\/em> and their #metoo source.”<\/p>\n

Waldman added, “We continue to take profound witness statements in this matter.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

The lawsuit references an alleged fight between Amber and Johnny that took place on\u00a0May 21, 2016. Heard previously accused\u00a0her then-husband of throwing a cell phone at her, which struck her in the eye and cheek. She also alleges that on April 21, 2016,\u00a0he threw a “magnum size bottle of champagne at the wall and a wine glass on me and the floor\u2014both which shattered.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

In the documents obtained by E! News, multiple witnesses claim that on May 21, 2016 there were\u00a0visible injuries on Ms. Heard’s face, and in the days following.\u00a0Moreover,\u00a0another\u00a0witness claims that at the time of the dispute “there was no smashed glass that I noticed in the apartment at the time.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Another witness claims that they never saw a “mark” on Amber’s face\u00a0until “6 days after she alleged the wifebeating.” In addition, the filing includes security camera footage that allegedly shows Heard without any apparent signs of abuse.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According<\/a> to\u00a0People<\/em>, Depp is suing the U.K. publication for “\u00a3200,000 pounds in addition to \u00a310,528 in legal fees, as well damages to be assessed by the court.” He is also seeking an injunction that will prohibit the paper from “continuing to publish” allegations of spousal abuse.\u00a0<\/p>\n

E! News has reached out to Amber Heard’s rep for comment.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
