The Rum Diary actress is in line to play an assassin in the Machete sequel starring Danny Trejo and directed by Robert Rodriguez, reports Variety.
Production for the film is expected to begin later this month in Heard's hometown of Austin, Texas.
Heard will play a deadly assassin known as Miss San Antonio.
Michelle Rodriguez and Jessica Alba will also reprise their roles in the sequel.
Mel Gibson recently signed up to play the main villain in the project.
Machete Kills will see Trejo's lead character recruited by the US government to stop an arms dealer (Gibson) from launching a missile.
Heard will also play the leading female role in Albert Hughes's Motor City.

Oh Amber, No.....please stop being in these shitty B-movies. I'll watch pretty much anything with Amber Heard in it as she's stunning but I've seen Machete and it as crap (as much as I love Danny Trejo).

Machete wasn't that good, but maybe there was room for improvement and this is it. I liked Drive Angry, so maybe Amber Heard will be a good addition to this film.
