Amber Heard reveals coming out as bisexual was difficult

London: She came out publicly about her bisexuality in 2010 and now, Amber Heard has opened up about how difficult it was.

Speaking at The Economist`s Pride & Prejudice event at New York, the `Danish Girl` star claimed that the filmmakers doubted whether she could play a straight woman in a romantic lead, reports The Independent.

She said, "It was not easy. I was the only one working in this way, so it was definitely difficult because no one had done it."

The 30-year-old-actress added, "I did that even though everyone told me it would end my career, without a doubt."

The actress also shared about her "coming out" announcement and why she never hid her sexuality.

"When I hear someone comment about me coming out, I think it`s funny because I was never in. Then I realised the gravity of what I had done."

On a related note, Amber Heard will be next seen in Zack Snyder`s `Justice League` as Mera, alongside Ben Affleck, Gal Gadot and Jason Momoa.

The flick is slated for a November 17 release.
