Johnny Depp is leaving the Fantastic Beasts film franchise after the studio requested the actor's departure.

The actor made an announcement in an Instagram post on Friday, writing, “I wish to let you know that I have been asked to resign by Warner Bros. from my role as Grindelwald in Fantastic Beasts and I have respected and agreed to that request.”

Depp's firing comes after the actor lost a libel suit in the U.K. against News Group Newspapers, publisher of The Sun. Depp sued UK-based publisher for defamation over an April 17, 2018 article headlined "How can JK Rowling be 'genuinely happy' casting wife-beater Johnny Depp in the new Fantastic Beasts film?" After a contentious summer trial that made global headlines for weeks and put the acrimonious relationship between Depp and his ex-wife Amber Heard under a microscope, Judge Andrew Nicol on Monday dismissed the suit finding that what the paper published was “substantially true.”

For its part, Warner Bros offered a statement Friday morning confirming the news of Depp's dismissal, noting the role would be recast for the franchise's third installment, due out in 2022. The movie, which is led by Eddie Redmayne, is currently in production and was previously set to hit theaters in Nov. 2021.

Bring Colin Farrell back!!

I support this

Other than a "Oh wtf" when he turned into Depp in the first movie, this casting hasn't really brought anything to the movies

Put Mads Mikkelsen atop the list of actors being considered to replace Johnny Depp in the David Yates-directed Fantastic Beast 3, the third installment of the Harry Potter spinoff based on the JK Rowling fantasy franchise. Sources said he is Yates’ choice to play Grindelwald and he is in early talks. The aim is to keep on track a picture that recently moved its original November 12, 2021 release date to summer 2022.

Between Rowling being a turdnugget, the whole Depp debacle and the second movie being mediocre as fuck, I have very little hype for this movie

Will probably catch it on streaming later

Depp was worse than Farrell but either way put this franchise out of its misery

My fiance and her sister enjoy this series and force me to go even though I'm not a Harry Potter kinda guy.

I actually enjoyed the first Fantastic Beasts because of all the cool animals, but I dislike all the wizardry and stuff. :/

I'm really hoping this under performs like hell cause of how shitty the last 2 were and Rowling being a TERF cunt. Maybe WB will finally kick the bitch to the curb.

What was once a five part series now hinges on the success of this film before a fourth is greenllit. Article talks about how the Potter film franchise isn't worth the hassle thanks to JK Rowling's viewpoints and Fantastic Beasts thanks to Depp and the films going over budget.
