One such actor who recently came out in support of the actor is Mickey Rourke.

The Iron Man 2 actor said, “All I could say is, I was in a situation one time where I got blamed for something that I didn’t do. It cost me movie jobs for several years, and it caused me a bad reputation.” Mickey Rourke added, “Finally, the truth came out, but the truth came out after I lost movies and I lost jobs, and so I felt bad for somebody that is trying to get chopped down by some gold digger.”
After this, when Mickey Rourke was asked if he thought Amber Heard was a gold digger, he commented that the Aquaman actress “absolutely” was a gold digger.
