We do have an OvershadowedByControversy.Real Life page (which has its own set of problems) but it doesn't belong on Creator pages due to being YMMV. This better fits Role-Ending Misdemeanor, which is allowed on a Creator page as Trivia.

I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.

This is being discussed here: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/query.php?parent_id=95368&type=att.

That thread brought up a problem with using Role-Ending Misdemeanor in the case of Amber Heard: there's no evidence that she actually lost any roles because of the controversy (which Johnny Depp did). So people in that thread actually said that Overshadowed by Controversy fitted the case better.

There are multiple examples on the Film section of that page detailing specific projects that have been overshadowed by the Depp/Heard divorce. I mean, half of all the examples on that page are entries about how a piece of media was overshadowed by the actions of one of its creators. I don't see a problem with just moving any more specific examples (including Aquaman) there.

If it helps we have an Overshadowed by Controversy Cleanup thread that might be useful.
