"#orangetheworld here at the @aquamanmovie press junket in new York," Heard captioned Saturday's image, which shows the actress wearing an orange ribbon pinned to her suit jacket, while Wilson has an orange string tied around his wrist and Momoa has an orange feather tucked in his shirt pocket.

The photo was snapped while the cast members were in Manhattan to promote their superhero movie.

The Orange the World hashtag is explained on the We Rise Initiative's Twitter feed as being part of campaign to prevent violence against women and girls.

Heard has accused her ex-husband -- Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald actor Johnny Depp -- of physically abusing her during their brief marriage. Depp has denied any wrongdoing.
