Amber Heard is reportedly navigating the complexities of a professional return to Hollywood while maintaining a secluded lifestyle in Madrid with her three children.

The Aquaman actress, who celebrated her 40th birthday on Wednesday, has spent the last few years away from the intense scrutiny of the American film industry.

Since her relocation to Spain following her legal battle with Johnny Depp, Heard has focused on expanding her family.

She is now a mother of three, raising five-year-old Oonagh Paige alongside her one-year-old twins, daughter Agnes and son Ocean, whom she welcomed via surrogate in May 2025.

While Heard has successfully reinvented herself abroad—reportedly even using the pseudonym Martha Jane Cannary to maintain privacy—sources suggest she is eager to return to the screen.

According to reports from Radar Online, the actress has been "making all kinds of pitches" for a "splashy comeback," though she has found the process increasingly difficult. "It's not turning out the way she expected.

It’s becoming frustrating for her," an insider noted, suggesting that while she is happy in Spain, she is determined to re-establish her financial independence through her acting career.

Despite the hurdles in mainstream Hollywood, Heard has stayed active in smaller artistic ventures. In 2025, she received positive reviews for her performance in the bilingual stage play Spirit of the People and appeared in the documentary Silenced, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival.

Most recently, she was spotted appearing relaxed on a birthday holiday in Cadaqués, balancing her ambitions for a career "next step" with the daily demands of being a full-time mother.
