Johnny Depp may once again take on the role of Captain Jack Sparrow in the upcoming Pirates Of The Caribbean film, an insider close to the movie has suggested.The actor played the lead role in all five of the movies in the franchise, which kicked off in 2003 with The Curse Of The Black Pearl.
However, following the last movie — 2017’s Dead Men Tell No Tales — Depp allegedly parted ways with Disney, and would no longer be taking on the character for any further projects.This split came in light of the recent trials between the actor and ex-wife Amber Heard, who claimed that the Hollywood A-lister had physically and emotionally abused her.The conflict between Depp and Heard initiated in 2019, when Depp sued Heard for defamation, following a 2018 op-ed piece she had written for The Washington Post, claiming she was a victim of domestic abuse.The Aquaman actress then countersued Depp the following year, and the case soon made headlines after it went to trial in 2022.Two trials were held, one in the UK and one in the US.
In the UK libel case, while Depp was never accused of rape, he was found to have subjected her to violent domestic abuse. In the US case, however, her claims were found largely not to be true.
Though Amber Heard vowed to appeal the decision of the US case, she eventually settled with Johnny Depp outside of court, paying the actor $1 million in December.Amid the controversy between Depp and Heard, Disney reportedly turned its back on the Pirates Of The Caribbean actor.
