During the unforgettable Jack Sparrow sketch in the “Pirates of the Caribbean” saga, his interpreter, Johnny Depp, made an absolutely incredible suggestion: remove his character’s nose!
A three-cornered hat, a compass that doesn’t point north, a wobbly walk, dreadlocks and…a cut nose?!
When he was preparing for the role of the unforgettable Captain Jack Sparrow in the early 2000s, his interpreter Johnny Depp did not lack for imagination. Wanting to create a memorable character for the public, he thus presented all kinds of ideas – more or less eccentric – to the producer to embody the hero’s aura.
As Pirates of the Caribbean director Gore Verbinski recounts in the film’s audio commentary, his most unlikely suggestion was to suffocate the pirate figure by cutting off his nose: an injury he likely inherited from his many fights.
This physical feature thus led to several comical elements in the film, with Jack Sparrow necessarily frightened by the simple fact of catching a cold or coming into contact with an object that sneezes at him.
As the site explains EspinovJohnny Depp, realizing the completely insane nature of his idea, changed his mind before the director, troubled by the proposal, had time to present it.
