This supercut of Johnny Depp in the witness box might be the most entertaining thing he’s done in years

We have to confess we haven’t been following Johnny Depp’s $50m defamation case against his ex-wife, Amber Heard, particularly closely.

There was that hilarious moment when Heard’s lawyer objected to his own question, of course.

Now we’ve got this supercut of Johnny Depp’s evidence in the witness box, and it might be the most entertaining thing he’s done in years (apart from the music, obviously).

And there was this (brief) exchange on Reddit for anyone who didn’t quite get what was going on.

‘As an attorney, I just have to say Depp repeating the question back, slowly, so that his attorney realizes to object on hearsay grounds is peak witness performance.

‘Edit: I didn’t have the context right. See comments below. Still peak witness performance.’

Is it his attorney or Amber’s attorney objecting for hearsay? The way I took it is that he’s making statements that could be hearsay that her lawyers have been objecting constantly, and he’s just waiting for them to do it again after he speaks

‘You’re right. They are Amber’s lawyers. One of them even objected hearsay on their own question. They are like Abbott and Costello, but not on purpose.
