Johnny Depp revealed he has been asked to resign from the Fantastic Beasts film after he lost the libel case.
The actor - who denied ever being violent towards his wife Amber Heard - lost his libel battle against The Sun over an article calling him a "wife beater".
Now Warner Bros asked the Harry Potter star, 57, to step down from his role as Grindelwald in Fantastic Beasts following his crushing defeat.
His role for the Harry Potter franchise will be recast in 2022.
Johnny broke the news to his 7.4million followers on Instagram with a lengthy message.
He wrote on Instagram: "I wish to let you know that I have been asked to resign by Warner Bros. from my role as Grindelwald in Fantastic Beasts and I have respected and agreed to that request."
His letter was signed and dated November 6 from London.
Johnny first landed the cameo role as the character Grindelwald in the 2016 Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them movie.
It was expected the Hollywood star would reprise the dark wizard role in spin offs.
However, Johnny offered up an explanation to fans after he was dropped from the franchise following the court case.
