LOS ANGELES: A brand new documentary on the Johnny Depp vs Amber Heard trial by NBC News is about to make its debut on the digital platform.

Titled ‘A Marriage on Trial: Johnny Depp, Amber Heard and Truth within the Age of Social Media’, the documentary will debut on NBC News Now and can be out there for streaming on demand on NBCNews.com and Peacock, experiences Variety.

As per NBC News’ description for the 30-minute documentary, “The Depp vs Heard defamation trial evoked two distinct reactions — those that could not get sufficient and people who acquired greater than they needed.

“The new deep-dive documentary explores why the trial overwhelmed social media, specifically TikTok, and what viewers missed if social media coverage was their only news source. In the wake of a verdict that surprised legal experts, NBC News examines how the trial evolved into a TikTok trial and what the verdict means for future domestic abuse cases.”

Featured interviews within the documentary embody that of Heard’s lawyer Elaine Bredehoft, National Coalition Against Domestic Violence CEO Ruth Glenn, American University legislation professor and gender violence skilled Jamie Abrams, NBC News senior breaking information reporter Doha Madani, NBC News tech and tradition reporter Kat Tenbarge, and People Magazine’s Nigel Smith, amongst others.

‘A Marriage on Trial: Johnny Depp, Amber Heard, and Truth within the Age of Social Media’ is produced by the NBC News Digital Docs unit.
