Washington, May 22: Seems like a sequel to Hollywood actor Johnny Depp's testimony in his defamation trial against ex-wife Amber Heard is about to come. According to Deadline, a source close to Depp's legal team confirmed that the actor will almost certainly take the stand first thing next week. Depp vs Heard Trial: Amber Heard's Lawyers Try to Poke Holes in Johnny Depp's Libel Lawsuit.

After the last appearing on the stand, in the Virginia-set trial over two weeks ago, the former 'Pirates of the Caribbean' will be called by the defence as a third witness on Monday. He will follow an anatomy expert and an IPV expert in what is the last week of the trial, reported the outlet.

As per Deadline, Judge Penny Azcarte has said that she wants closing arguments to occur on May 27. Depp has sued Heard for USD 50 million in defamation after she alluded to their alleged abusive relationship in an op-ed written for The Washington Post.
