Depp has been battling his former management firm, who he claims mishandled his fortune and finances for several years. They, however, have claimed that Depp's frivolous lifestyle and spending resulted in his precarious state.

The actor recently split from Amber Heard in a particularly acrimonious divorce where Heard claimed physical abuse took place by Depp. The divorce was eventually settled for an undisclosed sum and a statement was put out by both parties which said that "there was never an intent of physical or emotional harm."

Depp's next film for release is 'Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes Of Grindelwald', which arrives in Irish cinemas on November 16th.
