In a recent interview, the director of 'In The Fire' praises Amber Heard.
3Amber Heard was involved in one of the most closely followed court cases in US history last year. In The Fire, however, director Conor Allyn was unconcerned about the anticipated backlash since the actress trusted him.
"The first thing out of her mouth was, 'I'm so sorry that this has happened and that my personal baggage might hurt the movie,'" the filmmaker claimed in an interview with Rolling Stone, adding, "She was calling me to apologize, and that tells me everything I need to know about her character."
"And it just seemed so surreal to have this person who'd just gone through everything that she'd gone through apologizing to me for a movie," the No Man's Land director remarked, gushing over the Aquaman star's upright character. Look, I enjoy what I do, but this is her life that is being damaged, and she is still defending me and accepting the responsibility."
The film, which stars Amber, was released on October 13 as her first big endeavor following the historic judicial fights with ex-Johnny Depp.
