We review everything that has been said about ‘Pirates of the Caribbean 6’ in the media trial for defamation between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard.
It’s not an easy time for fans of Johnny Deppespecially for those who have decided to ignore the severe accusations of physical and verbal abuse to which he has been subjected when it was discovered that Amber Heardhis former partner and another half of the legal dispute, was also not someone to spend an afternoon in the field with.
Wrapped in a war that does not stop with his ex-partner, at Disney they are clear that the ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ saga must continue without Captain Jack Sparrow but, thanks to the current defamation trial facing Depp and Heard for an opinion article published in The Washington Post in 2018, the former Captain has revealed some details to take into account about ‘Pirates of the Caribbean 6’.
The dismissal of the groundhog
The brand wanted to get rid of Depp before his mistreatment was released to the public. This has been demonstrated by the defense attorney, Ben Rottenborn, by citing an article from the Daily Mail that he was talking about his departure from the saga two months before the article published in The Washington Post for which the actor defends having been fired.
“I wasn’t aware of it, but I’m not surprised. It had been two years of constant comments around the world that I was an abuser. So I’m sure Disney was trying to cut ties to be safe,” he defended. the actor before taking advantage and, of course, attacking feminism. “The #MeToo movement was in full swing at the time.”
It’s not for you, it’s for me
Once fired, Depp wants to make it clear that he would not return to the saga under any circumstances. Asked by Rottenborn if he would still turn down the offer even if Disney offered him “$300 million and a million alpacas,” referring to a viralized comment from Depp himself, Depp replied, “That’s true, Mr. Rottenborn,” adding that of the alpacas said so because “I had a deep and clear sense of feeling betrayed by people I’ve worked hard for. People I gave a character to who they initially despised, but I stuck with the character and it seemed to work.”
One way or another, Depp will not return in ‘Pirates of the Caribbean 6’.

“They did not withdraw my character from the attractions,” Depp argues, not without reason. “They didn’t stop selling Captain Jack Sparrow dolls. They didn’t stop selling anything. They just didn’t want them to find anything of me.”
There will be Johnny Depp without Jack Sparrow, but will we see a Jack Sparrow without Johnny Depp?
I am jack
“I decided to participate in the writing of Pirates 6,” says the actor who acknowledges not having seen the first installment and that, according to different sources, he used an earpiece during the fifth installment so that they would recite the phrases that the rum had not told him. left to learn “It was a character that I had built from scratch and it was something that I put a lot of myself into. I added a lot of myself, a lot of my own rewriting in dialogue, scenes, jokes… I didn’t quite understand how after that long relationship and a pretty successful relationship with Disney…suddenly I was guilty until proven innocent.”
Officially, the only film Depp has actually worked on as a screenwriter was his brief move to direct, ‘The Brave‘ (1997), alongside Paul McCudden Y DP Depp.
