3 Days to Kill

0 Comments

Heard plays Vivi Delay, a CIA assassin, in this action thriller directed by McG. Vivi recruits Ethan Renner (Kevin Costner), a CIA agent dying of cancer, for one last job in exchange for an experimental cancer drug. Co-starring Hailee Steinfeld and Connie Nielsen.

What I was attracted to about her was this idea that I could play with the suspension of reality. Vivi doesn’t live in the same world that we live in. She doesn’t even live in the same world that the rest of the characters live in. That heightened sense of reality, and the freedom that comes with that, drew me to her.

Illegal pet import charges

Charged0 Comments

Heard is charged with two counts of charges of illegally importing her pet dogs, Pistol and Boo, into Australia, and one count of producing a false document according to the Commonwealth Department of Public Prosecutions. Australia has strict quarantine regulations to prevent diseases such as rabies. Bringing pets into the country involves applying for a permit and quarantine on arrival of at least 10 days. The charges carry a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a fine of 102,000 Australian dollars ($75,000). The false document charge carries a penalty of up to one year in prison and a fine of AU$10,200 ($7500). Agriculture Minister Joyce:

If we start letting movie stars — even though they’ve been the sexiest man alive twice — to come into our nation (with pets), then why don’t we just break the laws for everybody? It’s time that Pistol and Boo buggered off back to the United States…The law is the same for everybody. There is no preferential treatment here. You come into our nation, you have to abide biosecurity protocols

Heard is due to appear in court September 7.
