Disney breaks silence on Johnny Depp Jack Sparrow future in Pirates 6

It’s been six years since Johnny Depp starred in his fifth Pirates of the Caribbean film as Captain Jack Sparrow.

The Hollywood star was wanting ahead to giving the much-loved character a correct send-off in a sixth outing earlier than being dropped from the challenge by Disney in 2018.

This was following home abuse allegations by his ex-wife Amber Heard which the actor strongly denies.

But then final 12 months he received a libel case within the US towards her and fan hopes have been hovering for him to return in Pirates 6.

Now Disney’s motion pictures boss has spoken out on the upcoming sequel and whether or not or not Depp will likely be concerned in any respect.

Speaking with the New York Times, Disney’s Disney Studios Motion Picture Production president Sean Bailey teased Pirates of the Caribbean 6.

The government mentioned: “We think we have a really good, exciting story that honours the films that have come before but also has something new to say.”

But what a couple of potential return for Depp’s Captain Jack within the outing?

Bailey merely replied: “Noncommittal at this point.” Well, that’s definitely not a no.

During his libel case, Depp mentioned he wouldn’t return to working with Disney even when a whole lot of thousands and thousands of {dollars} have been on provide.

Of course, time does heal and his followers actually need extra Captain Jack, so maybe he could possibly be persuaded even when it’s in Pirates 7?
