Despite the fact that major production for the film was supposed to have wrapped earlier this year, reshoots to wrap up loose ends are still possible given the film has a year until it hits theatres.

Heard’s role in the film was called into question when her attorneys stated that she was on the verge of losing her job and that she couldn’t renegotiate for more money due to the backlash over her domestic abuse accusations against Johnny Depp.

Walter Hamada, the head of Warner Bros.’ DC division, was called to testify on the charges, and he maintained that the sexual assault allegations had no influence on casting decisions for ‘Aquaman 2’. He did reveal, though, that while the studio was considering whether or not to recast Mera, it held off picking up its option for many weeks.

Hamada said, “They didn’t have a lot of chemistry together,” added, “Editorially they were able to make that relationship work in the first movie, but there was a concern that it took a lot of effort to get there.”
