However, the director is now starring in the most recent of his scandals, as he is to be called as a witness in the defamation trial currently underway in Fairfax, Virginia, between actors Johnny Depp and Amber Heard.

The actor's career has not always been so turbulent, as he has starred and participated in films such as the "Spider Man" trilogy ?2002, 2004 and 2007?, "The Origin of the Planet of the Apes" ?2011?, "The Protector" ?2014?, "127 Hours" ?2011? or the already famous HBO series "The Deuce" ?2017?

The three-time "Harry Osborne" has dedicated a good part of his career to consolidate, thanks to the help of his mentors, a prolific academic career since he holds a degree in Literature from the University of California, Berkeley. UCLAD. in Writing and Digital Media from Rhode Island School of Design's Rhode Island School of Design, and a Ph.D. in Literature from Yale University.

Franco has been called to testify in the trial currently taking place in the court of Fairfax, Virginia, between actors Johnny Depp and Amber Heard, who, since April 11 of this year, starred in one of the most popular televised trials of today.

Depp and Heard who were husband and wife between 2015 and 2016, await Franco's statements to prove, in the case of Johnny Depp, a possible adultery between Franco and Heard. 

On the other hand, James' statement would be sought to clarify the actress' accusations about possible assaults that Depp allegedly provoked in Heard's face at the time.

In a video released to authorities, Amber Heard and James Franco are seen entering the elevator of the home Heard shared with Depp as the two affectionately embrace, footage dating back to May 22, 2016, the date Depp and Heard were still married.

The trial, which will last five weeks, is broadcast live on the Law and Crime Channel.
