Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean franchise will be returning to the big screen. Pirates of the Caribbean 6 was officially confirmed by Disney, but it looks like Johnny Depp will not return as Captain Jack Sparrow.
Depp has played the role of Jack Sparrow in all five films, which have made over $4.5 billion worldwide. The first film earned Depp an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor.
According to an article published to Collider, producer Jerry Bruckheimer talked about Pirates of the Caribbean 6 on a Zoom call.
Unfortunately for Disney, Johnny Depp’s accident did not happen on one of the more commercially successful Pirates of the Caribbean movies. Dead Men Tell No Tales made close to $794 million worldwide, making it the second lowest-grossing movie of the franchise, only coming ahead of the movie that kicked off this saga, 2003’s Curse of the Black Pearl. Dead Men Tell No Tales filmed in Australia from February to July of 2015.
Along with Pirates of the Caribbean, Johnny Depp’s time on the Fantastic Beasts franchise is also over. Depp agreed to Warner Bros’ request for him to step away from the role of Gellert Grindelwald, and Mads Mikkelsen will take over as the character. Depp will still be paid his full Fantastic Beasts 3 salary (reportedly $16 million) despite having only shot one scene. here
To say the last several years have been rough on Johnny Depp would be an understatement, as his continuing legal battles with ex-wife Amber Heard have affected both his professional and personal lives. However, it wasn’t that long ago that Depp still had cachet in the Hollywood realm, such as when he returned to play Jack Sparrow for the fifth time in 2017’s Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales. Though that’s not to say that things were calm behind the scenes with the actor, as it’s been reported that Depp’s indulgence in drugs ended up costing that production millions of dollars. more
Fast-forwarding to now, it looks like Johnny Depp’s time as the swashbuckling Jack Sparrow is over, despite many fans wanting him to return to the role. A sixth Pirates of the Caribbean movie is in development, but it’s expected to star a new protagonist. There’s also a spinoff in the works that will star Margot Robbie. Producer Jerry Bruckheimer reportedly was interested in having Depp’s Sparrow appear briefly in Pirates 6, but Disney “balked” at the idea. more
However the incident happened, Johnny Depp subsequently had to be flown to Los Angeles for surgery, requiring Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales to shut down production for two weeks. This move cost $350,000 per day, so over 14 days, that adds up to $4.9 million. It’s also worth noting that the fifth Pirates of the Caribbean movie was made off a budget somewhere between $230-$320 million, so an already-expensive production having to dedicate financial resources to deal with this drug-fueled injury is… not great, to put it mildly.

However, Depp’s voice was not used for the digital version of the character.
She said: “At the core of [Jungle Crusie] is this relationship, this unlikely duo, this unlikely couple who initially rub each other the wrong way and drive each other crazy. here
“[Jungle Cruise] is that kind of movie — and certainly what sets this apart from not just Jumanji, but certainly everything else I’ve ever done from every other movie out there.” (via IGN) more
Blunt added that Jungle Cruise will definitely pull some more aspects of the formula from the Pirates movies. more

When she forces him aboard the Queen Anne’s Revenge, the ship of the formidable pirate Blackbeard, Jack finds himself on an unexpected adventure in which he doesn’t know who to fear more: Blackbeard or the woman from his past.
