Amber Heard's net worth in 2022 became a hot topic as she continuously won in the legal cases related to the libel and defamation lawsuits Johnny Depp filed.

In the past years, Heard has been winning millions of dollars from her legal battles and Depp at the same time. In fact, Depp reportedly texted his private doctor about Heard and accused his ex-wife of using him for success and fame.

While it remains unknown whether the "Aquaman" star indeed used him, it is noticeable that she keeps on scoring new movie roles while Depp loses his. That caused questions about her net worth to emerge.

Amber Heard Net Worth 2022: Is She Richer Than Johnny Depp?

As of 2022, Amber Heard's net worth is reportedly around $8 million, Celebrity Net Worth confirmed. While the amount is impressive enough, it is actually not even half of Johnny Depp's net worth.

In comparison, the "Pirates of the Caribbean" actor currently has a net worth of $150 million. Despite losing his major roles in his record-breaking franchises, Depp still manages to keep his riches and be wealthier than his estranged wife.

Unlike Depp, Heard only got a few hit movies that brought millions to her bank account. She first started her career by appearing in several music videos before landing roles in a number of TV shows like "Jack & Bobby," "The O.C.," and "The Mountain."

It was not until the 2004 "Friday Night Lights" that Heard finally found her forte. From there, she became part of more famous films, including "Alpha Dog," "Side FX," "You Are Here," "Drop Dead Sexy," "Price to Pay," and "Drop Dead Sexy."

Although she got a more central role in "Hidden Palms, the teen drama received poor reviews and eventually ended its stint after only eight episodes. Her embarrassment did not stop there as another movie of hers, "Remember the Daze," was also bombarded with negative reviews.

More successful and unsuccessful films were added to her belt, but most of her projects from 2009 ultimately flopped.

In 2011, she was saved by Depp's "The Rum Diary," and working with her ex-husband indeed led her to have more successful years. Heard still suffered from a catastrophic failure in some of her movies, but she finally got the spotlight when she began playing Mera's role in the "Aquaman" franchise.
