Amber Heard has ranked as the most hated woman in the United States, which shouldn’t come as much of a surprise if you’ve been paying attention to the news over the past few months. This was revealed in The Washington Post. They revealed that Heard is in the number one negative spot in the infamous ‘Q Score’ ranking list. Let’s go over what this means and what the ‘Q Score’ is because I didn’t really know what it was before I read about it.
So, it’s been revealed that the number one negative spot, given recent events, is Amber Heard. Interestingly enough, Johnny Depp, who has always been actually quite high up on the list, has remained in the number eight spot on the most positive scores for men. The first time I ever heard people talk about ‘Q scores’ was in the 1996 Scream movie. In that movie in which a group of teens are trying to find out who murdered Drew Barrymore’s character, one of the characters, a nerdy cinephile called Randy (played by Jamie Kennedy), joked that being the killer “would certainly improve your high school Q.”

The Q Score is actually an old measure of likability that used to be very important in culture. However, over the years, it’s become less and less important. That said, it might become more important in the future. Everyone in the public still has a Q Score, except for politicians, religious leaders and royalty (Prince Andrew must be happy about that).
The whole idea of Q Scores was invented in the early 1960s by Jack Landis. He created this for a company called Marketing Evaluations. The Q Score was supposed to measure how many people were familiar with a show, celebrity, product, and also how they felt about them. They “evolved into the measurement of personality likability, the whole trail of how well-liked our movie stars, TV stars, chefs, musical performers are,” said Henry Schafer, the company’s executive vice president of 33 years. “Eventually every category of personality started to get measured.”

So, who’s doing well and who’s doing badly as far as their Q Scores are concerned? It’s been revealed that the likes of Morgan Freeman, Tom Hanks, Denzel Washington, Dwayne Johnson and Ryan Reynolds have very positive scores as far as male celebrities are concerned. Sandra Bullock is top among female celebrities, with Julia Roberts, Dolly Parton, Meryl Streep, Viola Davis and Michelle Obama also on the list.
Jerry Springer is top as far as the list of men with negative Q Scores is concerned. He’s followed up by Machine Gun Kelly, Anthony S. Fauci, Chris Brown and Elon Musk. There are three members of the Kardashians that are pretty close to the top of the negative scores for women. However, Amber Heard is number one on that list!
In a recent interview with Collider,Knightley was asked about the possibility of reprising her role as Elizabeth Swann in the upcoming “Pirates of the Caribbean” films. She responded by saying that she has not yet been approached about the project, but would definitely consider it if the opportunity arises.
“I don’t know if it’s happening,” Knightley said. “I haven’t heard anything about it. But, you know, I would always be open to the idea of revisiting Elizabeth Swann. It was a huge part of my life and career, and I’m very fond of the character.”
Knightley first appeared as Elizabeth Swann in the original “Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl” in 2003. She continued to play the character in the following two sequels, “Dead Man’s Chest” and “At World’s End,” before sitting out the fourth installment, “On Stranger Tides.”
While Knightley’s character was not present in “On Stranger Tides,” the film still managed to gross over $1 billion worldwide. The most recent entry in the franchise, “Dead Men Tell No Tales,” was released in 2017 and also went on to earn over $794 million globally.
It remains to be seen what the future holds for the “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise, which has seen its fair share of ups and downs in recent years. Johnny Depp, who played the lead role of Captain Jack Sparrow, was dropped from the series following allegations of domestic abuse. The studio has since announced that it is planning to reboot the franchise with a new cast and crew.
Despite the uncertainty surrounding the future of the franchise, Knightley’s potential return to the series would undoubtedly be a welcome sight for fans. Her portrayal of Elizabeth Swann was a key factor in the success of the early “Pirates of the Caribbean” films, and her absence from the later entries was felt by many.
Knightley has remained busy in the years since her last “Pirates” film, taking on a variety of roles in both independent and big-budget productions. She has been nominated for two Academy Awards for her performances in “Pride & Prejudice” and “The Imitation Game,” and has also appeared in films such as “Atonement,” “Anna Karenina,” and “The Nutcracker and the Four Realms.”
Whether or not Knightley ultimately returns to the “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise, her fans can look forward to seeing her in a variety of upcoming projects. She is set to star in the upcoming biographical drama “Silent Night,” as well as the action thriller “The Essex Serpent
