The small incident quickly faded. Although some tabloids tackled Johnny Depp's relationship but they were not strong enough to generate a buzz.
At the end of the day, Amber Heard was still not famous, and people cared about her. Besides, many people on the set witnessed what happened, and they knew that Johnny was mostly innocent. He did raise his voice though.
Kazir knew that someone in the set spread the word but since the outcome was not too bad, he decided to let it go. It would also take time to find the person responsible for sharing the information.
Once Kazir confirmed that Johnny and Amber were done, he decided not to invite the handsome extras again. After the production crew paid them their salaries, they stopped showing up again.
As for the scenes he filmed while the extras were in the background, he decided to cut most of them in the movie.
Kazir was the director of Pirates Of The Caribbean and he had the power to choose if he would add the scene or not. These actors and actresses had to just act in front of the cameras.
There was a reason why big studios entrusted the editing to Kazir because he never missed.
'Those actors might be looking forward to watching their scenes in the theaters, but they will probably be disappointed.'
When Kazir was still a nobody, he could relate to the hardship of the small actresses and actors who were hoping to make it big.
They would work for a movie, hoping they might get at least a single line, hoping that their faces would be captured by the camera, hoping that they would get noticed.
But now that Kazir was a famous director, he understood why background actors were hardly noticed.
First, the movie had time constraints. Movies were usually around 100 minutes to 120 minutes depending on the progression. That time was too small to focus on small background characters. They don't have screen time at all.
Second, the movie was not about them, obviously. The movie always focuses on the leading characters.
Third, they were extras. They were nothing but background characters to make the environment realistic.
Kazir felt bad but he was past the point of being a nobody. As a director of a movie with a project of more than $100 million, he had no time to babysit nobodies.
"Sad to say, but they will be disappointed once they watch the movie in the theater and fail to find their scenes."

September was the month of Taken 3. The movie dominated the month and grossed $278 million after 30 days of screening.
As for October, The Legend Of Zoro and Saw II were the movies that made a lot of money.
When November arrived, Chicken Little, which was a movie produced by Walt Disney Pictures, was released in the first week and easily won the box office that week.
In the second week, Now You See Me joined the party. The premiere was spectacular as the cast did some magic tricks. Kazir also attended the premiere, he was paid $1 million by Lionsgate just to show up... Imagine getting paid that much just to attend a red carpet and have fun watching a movie.
The third week was another banger because Warner Brothers released Harry Potter and the Goblet Of Fire. This was the movie that transitioned the franchise into a serious aspect after Cedric Diggory died, one of the major characters. This was also the movie where Voldemort was completely resurrected.
The Goblet Of Fire was an important part of the franchise and even its box office explained why.
Things slowed down at the end of November and the first week of December, but people knew that Hollywood would release another batch of movies to entertain the people.
While things were getting hectic on the movie side of Hollywood, many fans of Game Of Thrones were excited to watch the second season.
The first season of Game Of Thrones was still getting aired and many fans loved to watch it again. Some even bought the DVD just to watch it whenever they want.
When season 2 was released in the first week of December, it became the focus of the people and the main topic of conversation.
Overall, the season had so many interesting plots. Battle of Blackwater, Tyrion Lannister's rise to power, Introduction of Brienne of Tarth, Daenerys' story progression, and many more.
Fox TV's ratings exploded again when season 2 was released. The network's situation was getting better and more people noticed their programs.

"... Did I hear it right?" Kazir was a bit surprised when he heard Stella's announcement.
"Do I have to repeat it again?"
"I would love to hear it again, just to be sure."
"This year, Grey Pictures has a revenue of 1.4 billion dollars."
"Wow..."
"That's also my reaction when I first heard it. I called the accounting to recheck but there's no mistake. The company indeed made that amount of money."
Kazir knew that the company could generate a billion a year, but he didn't expect that despite having only two projects this year, which were Taken 3 and Game Of Thrones Season 2, the company would still make over a billion dollars.
"... I'm getting richer, no, I'm getting wealthier."

[Someone commented that I need to speed up the story which was understandable since I have a lot to tackle in 2005. I decided to skip three months and jump to December to make it a bit faster.]
[By the way, I checked the poll about Kazir's wife again and I realized that there was a huge change. A month ago, the vote difference between Angelina Jolie and Scarlett Johansson was only four or three votes. But now, Scarlett Johansson has 12 votes more than Angelina Jolie. I guess you guys are not asking for a comeback.]
[I will also post the PDF for HWI 350 to 400 within this week.]
[Thanks for all of the support, guys. I appreciate it a lot.]
