Johnny Depp says he would turn down the opportunity to return for PiratesOfTheCaribbean6, even if Disney offered millions.
Johnny Depp says he would turn down Disney if they offered him a role in Pirates of the Caribbean 6. Depp's recent comments came from his cross-examination during the defamation trial against ex-wife Amber Heard. Depp is currently suing Heard for $50 million stemming from accusations the Aquaman actress made in a Washington Post op-ed she penned in 2018. Though she never mentioned Depp by name, Heard used her alleged experiences as an abuse victim to back the op-ed.
Depp rose to mega-star status for his portrayal of Captain Jack Sparrow in Disney's 2003 blockbuster hit, Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. Beloved by fans, the actor would go on to play the character in four additional films in the franchise. Although Depp's character was well-received by fans and critics, Disney made the decision to block his return to any future Pirates of the Caribbean projects, including a long in-development sixth film.
“The fact is, Mr. Depp, if Disney came to you with $300 million and a million alpacas, nothing on this earth would get you to go back and work with Disney on a ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ film? Correct?” During the cross examination, Rottenborn attempted to show that Disney had already made the decision to block Depp's return to the franchise before Heard wrote her op-ed. The attorney noted a Daily Mail piece from October 25, 2018 that mentioned Depp was"out as Jack Sparrow.
While it seems Depp is now done with playing Captain Jack Sparrow in the Pirates franchise, at one time he could have made a cameo in future projects. However, given the tumultuous nature of his divorce to Heard, his return will never happen. Disney would be hard pressed to bring Depp back for Pirates of the Caribbean 6, even for just a small role. He has no interest in returning, and it might be better for him to move onto something new.
