The film is actually a sequel of the Harry Potter spin-off, which was also written by J.K. Rowling, wherein it takes place years way before Harry’s birth. Depp portrays the role of the dark wizard Grindelwald, who is known to be Dumbledore’s greatest ally and enemy.
While on stage, Depp stayed in character by saying that he definitely does not hate Muggles, or non-wizarding folks because he knows magic is only for those who deserve it. He also took the moment to say that the time has indeed come for wizards to take over the world.
Depp’s Casting Controversy
Coincidentally, Depp’s estranged ex-wife, Amber Hears, was also in the same place and was due to be on stage right after Depp. This is because Heard was actually there to promote her film, Aquaman, starring Jason Momoa. Their breakup actually stirred some controversy especially on Depp’s part since he was almost not cast as Grindelwald since Harry Potter fans showed some deep concerns about Heard’s allegations over Depp’s on domestic abuse. The two have managed to settle some agreements that of course cost millions of dollars, and eventually got divorced.
J.K. Rowling has even expressed her thoughts and feelings about the controversy over casting Depp and said that they of course respect the thoughts and opinions of the fans. However, they are indeed happy with the cast and was glad they have chosen Depp for the role. All went well when the divorce was finalized and everyone seemed to have loved it when they had a preview of how Depp played Grindelwald on the first film. The sequel will be released this coming November 16.
