Depp and Heard turn in Oscar worthy performances as "People Who Care About Biosecurity"

Australia's Agriculture Minister Barnaby Joyce has shared a video of Johnny Depp and Amber Heard in a hotel room apologising for smuggling in their dogs Pistol and Boo... it's pretty weird.

Johnny Depp and Amber Heard have apologised for compromising Australia's biosecurity in a bizarre, hostage-like video film in what is apparently a Gold Coast hotel room.

The video, shared by Agriculture Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce, shows a very wooden performance from the married actors (even more wooden than their performance in The Rum Diary).

Heard was handed down a one-month good behaviour bond for sneaking pups Pistol and Boo into Australia while Depp filmed the latest Pirates of the Caribbean film at the Gold Coast.

In the video the pair take Australia's biosecurity Very Seriously, and proclaim their Real And Deep concern for the country's flora and fauna.
