🏴‍☠️ Nooooo waaaay! Up until today, there wasn’t even a single hint from Johnny Depp that he had any interest in rejoining the Pirates of the Caribbean movie series...and in fact, all signs seemed to point toward him actively distancing himself from the film series... That officially changes TODAY as it was revealed in a new article where Pirates of the Caribbean 6 (unofficial title) producer Jerry Bruckheimer has revealed that he has spoken with Depp and that he’s interested in returning! Per @entertainmentweekly (article published August 12, 2025): “Johnny Depp is interested in returning to the high seas. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, producer Jerry Bruckheimer reveals that he has had conversations with Depp about reprising his role as Captain Jack Sparrow in a sixth Pirates of the Caribbean film. Bruckheimer previously told EW that he was eager for Depp to return to the role, despite Disney cutting ties with Depp, which the actor claimed happened as a result of the publication of a 2018 op-ed in which his ex-wife, Amber Heard, wrote that she had been a victim of domestic abuse but did not mention Depp by name. Now, the producer tells EW that Depp is open to the possibility of reprising his iconic role. ‘If he likes the way the part’s written, I think he would do it,’ Bruckheimer says. ‘It’s all about what’s on the page, as we all know.’” “‘It’s a reboot, but if it was up to me, he would be in it,’ Bruckheimer said previously. ‘I love him. He’s a good friend. He’s an amazing artist, and he’s a unique look. He created Captain Jack. That was not on the page; that was him doing a little Pepé Le Pew and Keith Richards. That was his interpretation of Jack Sparrow.’ Bruckheimer says it’s still a matter of locking in a script that everyone is happy with. ‘We are still working on a screenplay,’ he says. ‘We want to make it. We just got to get the right screenplay. We haven’t quite gotten there yet, but we’re close.’” How do you feel about the news?! CAN there be another PotC without Depp??
