Mind-Blowing Announcement: Ex-Disney exec reveals Johnny Depp’s potential return for next ‘Pirates’ movie!

According to a former Disney executive, Johnny Depp could make a comeback as the lead character, Jack Sparrow, in the next “Pirates of the Caribbean” movie. The executive believes that there is too much potential for box-office success with Depp reprising his role as the beloved captain.

Depp last played Jack Sparrow in 2017, and although the film performed well, it did not match the success of its predecessor. The franchise has been highly successful, grossing over $4.5 billion worldwide. However, Depp’s recent defamation lawsuit against his ex-wife, Amber Heard, has raised questions about his future in the industry. Hollywood insiders speculate that while Depp may find work, he may not return to starring in big-budget studio films.

It is thought that he might have better opportunities in independently financed projects or as a character actor. The producer of the “Pirates” franchise, Jerry Bruckheimer, has also mentioned that it is unlikely Depp will return for a potential sixth movie, as they are considering building the series around a new protagonist, potentially played by Margot Robbie.
