He could have stepped in and had the producers remove her, but he didn't.

He would have been well aware of that petition with almost 5 million votes to have her removed.

I was in this camp at first too, I get it.

However, I thought about how sleezy and manipulative Amber Heard has been shown to be. Actors and other staff members said she was "difficult to work with" and that usually means worse. I would not be surprised if some staff were afraid to say anything about her behavior because it would literally cost them their job. I bet her cutthroat nastiness was part of why Warner Brothers took so damn long to axe her out of fear of lawsuits and media scandals. She was even proven to have certain media identities basically stalked and harassed for pointing out anything critical about her during the court battles with Depp (especially details that could HELP Depp).

I mean Heard sounds like evil nasty shit to deal with overall. Other women were vocal about not liking her behavior. How much you wanna bet Mamoa picked up on the vibes working beside her and realized her media drama and personal toxicity could sink the movie if they weren't careful? His career was vulnerable with her around and he's got a family at home. If I had a wife and kids depending on me and my movie career, I likely would have played pacifist for their sake too.

I would not be shocked to hear the rumors of Heard's far-reaching manipulative fuckery intimidated even Mamoa. He's pretty and popular, but a Hollywood icon quickly learns just how easily that can be scrapped in less than a year if they cross the wrong person...
