Amber Heard looks summer chic in black sundress in Santa Monica... after James Franco is 'subpoenaed over video of him snuggling her'

Actress Amber Heard looks just as great in dark tones as she does in lighter colors.

The Aquaman performer, 33, was ever the chic movie star as she ran errands in a long black sundress in Santa Monica, California on Wednesday. Cinched at the waist, Amber's strappy summer dress featured a high neckline and it flowed down to her ankles.

This comes a week after James Franco was subpoenaed over video of him snuggling her.

Franco has found himself wrapped up in the ongoing legal battle between Johnny Depp and Heard.

The actor has been issued a subpoena by Depp's legal team after he was caught snuggling with Heard on surveillance video taken inside an elevator at Depp's Los Angeles apartment building.

Depp and his lawyers now want to Franco testify about his visit to Heard on May 21, 2016 and state whether or not the actress had any visible injuries on her face or body.

It was just one day prior when Depp left Heard bloodied and bruised in an altercation that resulted in their decision to terminate their 15-month marriage, according to claims she made in multiple court documents.

On Wednesday, the actress looked carefree.

She complemented her look with black Wayfarer shades and a black purse with long chain handle, along with a healthy helping of jewelry all around.

She wore a pair of flat black leather slip sandals, and tied her platinum blond locks back in a wispy bun.

Heard's look created an altogether different silhouette from the equally showstopping pale pink wraparound dress the actress wore out the day before.

That garment was a cotton wrap dress that showed off her shoulders and legs, tied at the waist with a sash.

The Drive Angry star is due in court next year, as part of a civil trial brought by her ex-husband Johnny Depp, who is suing her for defamation. 

Depp claims that his ex-wife fabricated claims that he abused her while they were married, as she referenced in an op-ed piece she wrote last December.

February 3, 2020 is the date scheduled for Depp's civil case against Heard to begin.
