There's a lot wrong with what you said.

He likely expected a settlement with the upcoming pressure of the Amber Heard trial, and he likely expected that settlement to be solidified because he assumed like most people Amber would have won that trial, making it more likely Depp would settled to get that one away.

Obviously that didn't happen, and now he's stuck with this upcoming trial that he may still try to get out of before it hits the court room.

But if he's banking on getting appearances and such to make up for the ridiculous amount of money he's likely spent so far, it's not going to make up for it. Not only that, he's also likely to pay for attorney's fees after they waste all this time with an obviously fake story. So he's just continually losing money at this point.

What happened was he was trying to piggyback off of a Heard win, and it fell through and he's in too deep now.
