Elon Musk has challenged Johnny Depp to a “cage fight”, while condemning the more “salacious” elements of Depp’s current libel trial.

The billionaire SpaceX mogul has been mentioned repeatedly through Depp’s defamation suit against The Sun’s publisher, News Group Newspapers, and its executive editor, Dan Wootton.

Depp’s legal team have alleged that Musk had an affair with ex-wife Amber Heard while she was married to Depp. Texts allegedly sent from Depp, in which he threatened to slice off Musk’s penis, were also read to the court.

“If Johnny wants a cage fight, just let me know,” Musk joked to The New York Times. He also denied many of the allegations in the trial that have mentioned his name.
