The actor Mickey Rourke, known for playing Ivan Vanko (Whiplash) in Iron Man 2, described Amber Heard as a gold digger in a new interview. In discussing her and Johnny Depp’s trial, he said he faced false allegations himself in the past and that he has known Johnny for a long time. The defamation case against Amber was won by Johnny Depp on June 1 following a six-week trial.
Mickey told Piers Morgan Uncensored, when asked about Johnny Heard and Amber Heard’s trial, “I’ve known Johnny for many years, but not intimately.” The only thing I could say was that I was once blamed for something I didn’t do. Over several years, I lost movies and jobs because of it, but eventually the truth came out. I felt like I died for somebody trying to get chopped down by some gold digger, you know?” When Piers asked him, “Do you think that’s what she was?” Mickey replied, “Absolutely.”
