Concepts of Johnny Depp's Fantastic Beasts agreement and additional instances where actors were let go from films

The streets couldnt defeat me disease couldnt stop me. Even God cant kill me, says Terrence Howard as Lucious Lyon in Empire, though he did get booted from the Iron Man franchise and was eventually replaced by Don Cheadle. Awkward.

Were counting down the top 10 times actors got fired from movies after filmmakers decided to take another route. The video above includes Dougray Scott – can you imagine anyone other than Hugh Jackman playing Wolverine – and Samantha Morton – I definitely cant imagine falling in love with anyone elses voice but Scarlett Johanssons in Her.

Never mind Theodore Twomblys story that sees Joaquin Phoenix fall for an Artificial Intelligence system other films fired actors under more serious circumstances than having the right tone and quality of voice.

Amid his legal troubles and messy divorce from Amber Heard, Johnny Depp was booted from Harry Potter spin-off Fantastic Beasts. At the time, the actor said he was asked to resign by Warner Bros.

Depp did end up winning his case against his ex, who hed sued for defamation over an op-ed she wrote describing herself as a public figure representing domestic abuse.

He took home a huge sum of 15 million while also keeping his full salary from Fantastic Beasts 3 despite being replaced by Mads Mikkelsen.

Kevin Spacey was also replaced by Christopher Plummer in Ridley Scotts All the Money in the World amid a sexual assault scandal, which meant nearly 400 new shots had to be filmed over nine days in order to keep the movies holiday release – it moved from 22 to 25 December, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Spacey has since won his sexual abuse trial brought on by actor Anthony Rapp and returned to public life even winning a film award in Italy. Meanwhile, Depp controversially strutted down the runway in Rihannas Savage X Fenty Show Vol. 4 to Outkasts So Fresh, So Clean, smirking at the camera.
