Johnny Depp’s Future in Pirates of the Caribbean Revealed: Jack Sparrow Star Refuses to Forgive Disney After the Amber Heard Trial
Johnny Depp has been a part of many blockbuster movies, but his most memorable role is in Pirates of the Caribbean. The character of Captain Jack Sparrow proved to be a breakthrough role for Depp, as it brought him immense wealth and fame.
After devoting almost 14 years to the film franchise, the actor has now finally announced that he will not work with the franchise again. The actor made this decision as Disney ended its association with him following his controversial defamation case.
Johnny Depp won’t appear as Jack Sparrow again
Think of Johnny Depp, and the image of Captain Jack Sparrow automatically comes to mind. Depp’s acting skills indeed have a great impact on his fans. Depp’s portrayal of Jack Sparrow became a household name in no time, and even today, fans eagerly wait for the comeback of the epic character. However, it seems like their desire to see Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow has been put in vain as the actor has denied working with the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise.
Previously, during the defamation trial between Depp and his ex-wife Amber Heard, the actor’s image in the industry was severely affected. Following this, Disney ended its association with the actor. However, the case was ruled in favor of Depp, and he came out clean after being accused of domestic abuse. After Depp’s victory, it was speculated that the actor might mark his major comeback with his iconic role.
“has absolutely no plans to ever work with Disney again.”
The actor is highly disappointed with the way he was treated by Disney. It has been reported that the actor is adamant about his decision not to work with the franchise, even if it costs him $20 million, which is being offered to him for the sixth installment of the film.
Even though Depp has made up his mind not to collaborate with Disney again, the filmmakers would appreciate it if the actor changed his mind.
Johnny Depp is in high demand
Johnny Depp has not just won millions of hearts with his performance, but the filmmakers also count on his acting skills. The producer of the Pirates of the Caribbean film, Jerry Bruckheimer, previously said during an interview,
“You’d have to ask them. I can’t answer that question. I really don’t know. I would love to have him in the movie. He’s a friend, a terrific actor, and it’s unfortunate that personal lives creep into everything we do.”
No matter what the filmmaker wishes, nothing is in his hands if Depp is not in the mood to reconcile with Disney. The departure of Johnny Depp from the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise may affect the fate of the franchise.
