The lawsuits between Johnny Depp and his ex-wife, Amber Heard, took another turn, as recently reportedly Johnny's lawyer wants evidence and testimony from the actress's friends, including her ex boyfriend Elon Musk .
The British newspaper Metro was the first to report that Depp's lawyer issued a call-to-call for Musk, Tesla's CEO. The New York Post page "Page Six" followed an hour later with a similar story.
Depp's lawyer stated that "they issued orders for Amber Heard, her friends, Elon Musk and other witnesses to explain some photos, videos, and other evidence". A source told SETimes that Musk "has not yet received such a call".

He and Heard split in February 2018. She told The Hollywood Reporter in December that they enjoy "a friendship based on common ideas and love for science." Amber Heard and Johnny Depp split in 2016, 15 months after their marriage.

During these days, new evidence has been made that the actress has filed against the former husband. In a court file she said that Depp was transformed into another man, threatening to kill him. "That version of Johnny we called 'Monster,'" she said.

In an exclusive interview for "GQ" in October 2018, Johnny Depp spoke for the first time on the accusation of the former wife.
"Why did not this person [Amber Heard] talk to the police? I mean, they talked to the police, but the police saw nothing and offered medical help. She said no. The police saw no sign at her, saw nothing broken, and then told her they would bring an expert, but she refused. A few days later there was a wound. There was a red mark and then a brown wound, "Depp explains his story and continues with other details. "The next day went to the 44th anniversary celebration of Amanda de Cadenet. But Cadenet posted a picture with him and his face looked very good, "he noted, referring to the picture below.
"The next day she appeared in another celebration. He had hair over his eyes, but it could be seen that the eye had no signs. I was 7 feet away, how could I hit the devil ?! Even if I was near, it would be the last thing I would have done. I may look stupid, but I'm not. "
The actress testified in court in 2016 that Johnny, with whom he had 15 months of marriage, hit an iPhone in the face. According to Heard, before she filed for divorce, Johnny Depp had offered money in exchange for silence, but preferred to divorce as soon as she feared for her life. In Amber's court statement, published by DailyMail, Johnny Depp's alcohol and narcotics abuse had caused him to lose silence, making him violent and paranoid: "He is very paranoid, his temper scares me because has told me many times that he is physically violent. Next to him my life was in danger. "
A few days ago, she also featured a screenshot of messages that Depp sent after violent episodes. "I'm ashamed and sorry. Of course I apologize. I do not know what happened, but I know it will not be repeated, "wrote Depp, among other things.
