Recently, rumors began to circulate that Jason Momoa was frequently intoxicated on the set ofAquaman and the Lost Kingdomand he would dress up as Johnny Depp to scare Amber Heard. But a spokesperson from DC refuted these claims, asVarietyreported saying,

“A DC spokesperson pushed back on Heard’s characterization, saying, ‘Jason Momoa conducted himself in a professional manner at all times on the set of Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom’. Others echoed that sentiment. ‘Jason works his ass off, likes to have a beer once in a while like everyone, but doesn’t show up drunk to set,’ says an insider who was on the London set in 2021, adding that the two stars got along and were seen joking together. ‘And he isn’t dressing like Johnny Depp. He has always dressed in that bohemian style.'”
