Captain Jack sparrow is the only one no one can take his place .. I will not watch another pirate of caribbean film unless Johnny Depp is captain Jack sparrow as its him who makes the film
I don’t care what he does in his personal life as long as he keeps acting. Captain Jack he is & any Pirates movie without his just would not be the same. She’s a good actress and she plaid the part well
Jack Sparrow is Jonny Depp xx
Captain Jack Sparrows, enjoy your Island and find peace, for Life is too short and Stressful. Enjoy the Wind, the Sea and a Glass of fine Wine. You will be the Only Pirate I will ever love and no one can take your place. Be Safe and God Bless.
Don’t bring his personal life into his professional life. One has nothing to do with the other. Depp is a very gifted actor and IMO she is a gold digger.
Johnny Depp is the greatest in the Jack Sparrow role. He should always be in “Pirates” and play him. Johnny I’ll always be on your side, bud. Love u, Ela
Johnny Depp is Captain Jack Sparrow n always will be. They need to forget what he did privately..if he did which I don’t believe..n bring him back for the next POC movie! Long live Captain Jack!!
There is no Pirates without Johnny. And why is everyone so surprised about his island? He’s had the island since “On Stranger Tides” was filmed,how is this new to everyone?
There’s only one JOHNNY DEPP. People should make their own movies. Not ride JOHNNY’S coattails. If Amber wants fame she would find it in wrestling. Not movies.
She got fame slandering Johnny. You know whats really sad? He met her on his passion project The Rum Diary for his friend Hunter Thompson. Depp personally financed that film to honor his late friend and now her stink mucks it all up. Poor Johnny. We’ve all dated a chick like that at least once in our lives.
Guess Disney can’t get over that Johnny Depp got the gig for the NEXT DR. WHO! Gonna have to give it up for Johnny Depp coming back for JACK SPARROW! By popular demand and a no bars hold!
She’s a lead actor in Aquaman and he’s blaming her for the destruction of his career, so she’s relevant and so is her connection to this article. In fact, they should have mentioned that he bought the island 20 years ago while with his partner Vanessa before leaving her for Amber, who is 23 years younger and nearer the age of his teenage children than him. Or that he also named a beach after Amber Heard who he quickly courted and “trapped” by proposing.
Who trapped WHO? She targeted him for the HOAX she’s been carrying out, blatantly guilty for, committing perjury over, and now she’s caught falsifying photographic evidence. She’s going to lose!
He’s also living paycheck to paycheck and probably about to lose everything if he doesn’t find some lucrative work soon. These biased fan rags never give the full picture. They report that he got paid for Fantastic Beasts 2 after getting the boot, they didn’t report that he had already been paid because he asked for and was given an advance on his salary before they started filming so he could continue living beyond his means.
Are you trying to make yourself and the average financial status feel more livable? Paycheck to paycheck? He’s got $150 million to his name, after giving Vanessa half of his $650 million back when they split, and then having his financials thrown in his face and ripped from his hands by management that didn’t even take care of his taxes! Hurd thinks she’s wealthy because she has 7mils she ripped off from sick children and her once in a lifetime little paycheck of 10 mils in total she’s getting from AM1&2. She’s the one being scandalized by being investigated for perjury in the US, UK and Australia.
It is a grave miscalculation for Disney to remove Depp from POTC movies. He can be the only Jack Sparrow, & without him, the movies will fail. It’s a bad financial move for sure, & based only on a scorned woman’s claims. Disney needs to rethink their decision if they want future POTC films to succeed. Return Johnny Depp to the role, & stop making judgments film companies are not qualified to make.
sooo true! I agree with you 100%!! And there is NO other person for the role of Captain Jack Sparrow except Johnny Depp!! He OWNED that role!! Love him as Captain Jack! I won’t watch another POTC without him in that r ole either! And there are many other actors I’m sure that actually have done worse things in life and weren’t taken out of their movies! I’m on Johnnys side and I don’t believe Ambers story at all!!
Yes! What she said! Stop making decisions that film companies shouldn’t be making! Cmon Disney
..we know about all those sexual innuendos in your cartoons stop acting so noble and virtuous!
There’s 3 sides. His, Hers and The truth, which is somewhere in between. However, I personally believe she manipulated the situation by baiting him into an argument. He’s the villain & she’s the sweet innocent frightened undeserving victim. As far as I’m concerned, She lost credibility & respect for secretly filming & heavily editing a brief moment of their private lives. I believe she did it to secure greater financial gain in divorce. She hijacked his fame & used his spotlight to showcase herself as victim, garner sympathy & ultimately public approval, fame & adoration. Had the relationship been documented openly & everyone aware of being filmed, proof of more incidents or just a little more footage from earlier that day… I’m most curious with the hour prior to incident. Further explanation of discrepancies between the aftermath, house torn up but when police there the house was completely clean, no evidence at all. Prior to her union with Depp, I had no opnion of Amber Heard. Now, I know for certain, without a doubt, I am not a fan. Not in a boat not on a goat, I do not like her, Sam I am.
That was a bizarre rant and light on facts. She was both obligated and legally entitled to record her abuser to obtain evidence for a criminal proceeding whether or not she decided to file a report, victim advocates do recommend documenting all violence when it occurs to help get an airtight ruling on a restraining order. That video was submitted to evidence and there was no proof it was edited by her and not by TMZ. It’s irresponsible to repeat claims without first fact checking them for accuracy with verified sources of evidence (not unverified claims of the accused wife beater and his paid employees).
Johnny Depp IS Captain Jack Sparrow…he IS Pirates Of The Caribbean. I’ll never watch another POTC without Johnny.
I hope he finds peace in his personal life soon.
There is only one “DEPP”, and as such one JACK SPARROW !!!
There was a time when a few brutish women played at pirating but M.R. had trouble with “Birds of P ”
Not to be sexist but….. those pants only fit one man. GO JOHNNY.
If I remember correctly, he calls it F*** Off Island for when he feels like escaping and as he puts it, f***ing off. Sadly, he was abused there too, because his staff and kids witnessed it.
His heinous ex even did a photo shoot there after she said she’d been abused…running and jumping all over the beach at a time when she claims she had bruised ribs. 🙄
That’s a lie. He wasn’t abused ever. His children never testified and even JD stated they were never present during any of their fights. Amber did a photo shoot at the end of December and that incident occurred several weeks earlier. Facts matter, although if you are getting them from sites like this who are biased and leave out relevant details, it’s not surprising you are confused.
You’re the one fabricating. His children DID witness Hurd attack him, you can’t just say something that isn’t true and act like you know what you’re talking about. People follow this case, the fact his children saw Turd attack Depp is in the court documents.
Johnny Depp will always be Jack Sparrow. To replace him would ruin future Pirates of the Caribbean movies. I would boycott this issue. No Depp, no f*** pirate movies for me
With Margot Robbie’s film, she is going to play a lesbian. Pirates fans are boycotting it for that reason. Johnny Depp created Jack Sparrow based on Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones. Disney is still selling Jack Sparrow merchandise, his likeness is in the attraction, and they still have a Jack Sparrow “face character” for pictures, but they don’t want him in their movies. Hypocritical!
Shame on you Disney!!! Johnny Depp will always be Captain JACK SPARROW!! Just like Fantastic Beast…I agree with everyone !!! Johnny Depp is an excellent actor! He plays the part as a pirate or any movies. Why punish him and not his ex? I do hope he proves his ex dummy up those photos supposedly he abused her. Women do get abusive too! I won’t watch the next Pirate movie unless Depp is back as Captain JACK SPARROW nor any movies that he has been replaced with. Why isn’t there more cast stepping up or are they? I have always been a big huge fan of Depp!! I’m rooting for you Captain JACK SPARROW with a bottle of rum or two, lol😂😂😂😂. I would be more than happy to be on an island with you celebrating victory…I’m rooting for you!!!
Margot Robbie’s film has her as a lesbian pirate. Not my taste, and probably not the taste of the majority. Johnny Depp invented Jack Sparrow based on Keith Richards. No one else can do it. Enjoy your island, Johnny.
Disney does not have a problem with selling merchandise with Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow’s likeness, having Jack Sparrow in the attraction Pirates of the Caribbean, and having a “face character” for pictures with the kids. Banning him from the movies is hypocritical!
Johnny Depp is Jack Sparrow. No one can play that role like he can!!!! I will not be watching the new movie if anyone but Johnny is in the role. He perfected that role.
I LOVE that he bought it! He IS JACK SPARROW. the pirates franchise means nothing without him. How ridiculous that he was blackballed. I hope they eventually reconsider because I will NEVER see a film without him in it unless it was HIS choice. I still love Disney the Magic but Disney the “Arbiters of morality” are highly questionable.
Disneys greedy man chapek has to go. He gotten rid of a Disney ICON. Chapek has already convicted Depp guilty. So sad. I thought in America we were innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. Such a loss for Disney. There is no replacement for Jack Sparrow.
Johnny Depp Is Cap Jack Sparrow. Thats it, all she wrote. I have heard his ex had a make-up artist do brusies on her face to make her claim. If thats true, this person should be made to tell the truth.
Keep you’re hesd high Mr, Depp. Yoir fans are with you.
No Johnny = NO Pirates of the Caribbean ☝🏼
It’s so wrong what Disney did, without being found guilty they already made up their mind about him and make him seem guilty for the accusations to the world. Not right at all!!
There will never ever be another Jack Sparrow besides Johnny Depp. I I think that it is absolutely horrendous that after all the money that Depp has made for Disney oh, that they abandon him and throw him to the wolves. The case has not even went to court yet to prove whether or not he is guilty. Whatever happened to innocent before proven guilty? And even if he is guilty of pushing her, it sounds to me like she had beating on him quite a bit. A man can only take so much. I don’t believe in a man hitting a woman, but I do believe in protecting yourself. I’ve seen some crazy women go after a man. Kind of strange that nothing like this has ever happened before to Depp, and not since. Johnny Depp’s fans are loyal and Disney will go down. I will boycott every Disney film from now on, for letting him go.
So for me, I love that he got the island!! He is the one and only Capt Jack!I hope Disney kinda has a hard time finding location for POC. lol.. and I believe JD when he says how beautiful it is and that your pulse rate drops!!So next time I go walking around my subdivision.. Im taking my new warmie.. its a Teddy Bear as cute as can be.. that u can warm in microwave.. and its name is JD.. lol and as I walk, I will pretend its an island!! xoxoxJ.
Pirates of the Caribbean is Jack Sparrow, Johnny Depp is Jack Sparrow end of! No one but no one could play his part; no storyline can be without him, especially when it comes to a woke lesbian pairing. Who wants to go to see that or take kids to that instead of Jack?
I don’t see how they could even try to take the character of jack sparrow away from johnny Depp. He is the real and only Jack Sparrow. No one can ever take that away from him. No one else could do Jack like Johnny Depp.
From the outside…
I think he’s being punished by someone who married him only to gain wealth and attention. He was duped, then dropped, when this role is clearly his, (as well as others he could add to).
There are people living and dealing with serious,
real spousal abuse, and this fiasco hasn’t helped their cause, or aided in their much needed and deserved credibility.
Much luck to you, Johnny Depp.
Johnny Depp IS, and ALWAYS will be Jack Sparrow!!!!! There is NO correlation between his divorce and his career of POTC. DISNEY is totally Wrong to refuse his return to this franchise. To remake the movie is stupid. Johnny is the movie, he deserves to continue to be the pirate he created and is the ONLY person who can be this character. He makes him perfect, anyone else will FAIL. And Disney will flop if Johnny is not part of the continued movies.
Johnny Depp is the one and only Captain Jack Sparrow!! I will never watch another POC if Johnny isn’t CJS!!!! Dragging his personal life into this is just wrong and unfair. Shame on you Disney… You’re going to lose ALOT of $$$$ and followers by being stupid. I have nothing against LGBTQ but I absolutely will not watch a lesbian pirate movie in place of JD. I mean….. seriously??? Hang in there Johnny… What goes around comes around. Peace
The bias of the author is unmistakable. No mention that he also named a beach after Amber Heard? They also alluded to the US case deciding guilt or innocence when these are also civil lawsuits (each suing for defamation in a lawsuit and counter suit) and can only determine financial liability, not guilt.
The law and personal safety should always take precedence over pop culture. John Lennon was also a wife beater and abusive father. The laws are intended to protect victims but can’t when society fails to impose a strict sense of morality. For some reason beating your wife continues to be shrugged off by both men and women as if it’s to be expected. Less than 10% of DV cases lead to prosecution in the US. It’s disgraceful and Johnny Depp is trying to set a dangerous precedent that will cost all victims if he wins. Far more important than some ridiculous pirate flick.
You’re on a roll, alright @Jeff but just because Lennon revealed in an interview in playboy that he was abusive this only shows a stark difference between AH and JD. You conveniently omit her confessions of abuse on her legally sworn-in audio tapes which she completely skips over as evidence, as do you. And she is the one who was not persecuted for her arrest for DV abuse and NO ONE accuses JD of domestic violence but HERD! Stop twisting the facts! Herd is the one setting a dangerous precedence by LYING ABOUT HER ABUSE of him and her other partners, which she will not get way with much longer.
I think it is wonderful that he does and he does captain Jack Sparrow at a Hospital in Canada and he loves doing that for the kids and even there families and they are really touched by that and enjoy it and it means a lot to them what Johnny Depp has done up there for them and he does need to keep that role and nobody should not and I repeat not for someone not to get that role and you can’t give that away from Johnny Depp and I am protecting him
Johnny Depp is the Only person who Can play Jack Sparrow. He Has Totally Made that Character. I Don’t believe that Disney Should Shut him Out of the Character that Depp Made His Own and Disney Has Capitalized On His Portrayal of that Character. The Trial isn’t Even Decided. Innocent Until Proved Guilty Beyond a Reasonable Doubt Is the Law in America – By the Way Disney!
Only ONE Captain Jack Sparrow
Only ONE Johnny Depp
He can be replaced but the film will completely bomb If Disney wants the same actors such as Brian McNally I think they will turn it down I won’t EVER watch it without Johnny Depp
Still here😊 Texas Hold’em is no joke! Try a ROYAL FLUSH before all hope is lost in URANUS. I forsee Queen of Diamonds sticking to it FOREVER, a genuine gem in the… What did you call it, solace?🤣🤣🤣
She should prove her case in court Jeff. Gender does not determine abuse or justice!
Johnny Depp will always be the only Jack Sparrow. I will not go to see another Pirates film with him not in it as Captain Jack Sparrow. No one can play that part better than Johnny Depp. I hope Disney will change their minds and bring him back. If not I’m done with Disney.
He is Jack Sparrow. Why have Margot Robbie do a a female version when there are 3 storylines continue and expand. Will Turner, Selma Hiatt’s character(Blackbeards’ daughter) and Barbosas’ daughter.
Johnny Depp doesn’t need to “become” Jack Sparrow; he -is- Jack Sparrow.
A fact that is made by all the more obvious when you find out that Disney didn’t even like Johnny’s interpretation of the character in the first place.
Basically, despite it being Disney’s IP, everything everyone loves most about Jack Sparrow; everything that made the character a unique inspiration to children and adults alike for decades; exists not thanks to Disney, but despite Disney. If not for Johnny Depp, PotC would have been just another in a long line of failed pirate movies.
Nice to see an article that acknowledges that there have been no charges, convictions etc.. Too many articles purposefully omit that, and still worse, post about him having been “found guilty” by a “High Court judge” as though he’d been criminally tried.
No. Just… NO.
That isn’t what happened at all.
JD lost his CIVIL libel/slander suit against the Sun newspaper (primarily because the judge mistakenly took AH at her word for almost everything – unfortunate since the number of times she committed perjury during that trial continues to climb as new info is keeps coming to light).
It was neither, however, a criminal court nor criminal trial and, as such, did not require the kind of proof required to find someone guilty of a crime (ie “beyond all reasonable doubt”).
Instead, the UK judge worked on a civil scale, where his verdict, when you skip the ‘court speak’, boiled down to the conclusion that “The paper could call JD an abuser because that claim was
(to the tune of just 51%) more likely true than not true”.
The UK trial also didn’t test the validity of AH’s testimony in the same way it would have had she been an official party there, rather than just a witness. A fact that has already been acknowledged by the Virginia judge, who wrote:
“The Court is not persuaded by Defendant’s [AH] argument that Plaintiff [JD] had a full and fair opportunity to litigate the UK action,” Azcarate wrote in a dense opinion released today (read it here). “Defendant [AH] was not a party in the UK action and was not treated as one. Because
she was not a named defendant, she was not subject to the same discovery rules applicable to named parties.”
Point of note though, the Virgina case is also not a criminal one. Like the UK case, it’s a civil one, so it can neither exonerate nor convict him off a crime.
What a win in Virginia could do, though, is provide JD with some vindication and a small amount of justice.
Personally, having read through transcripts, looked at publicly available evidence, watched official depositions, and unofficial legal breakdowns… I’ve got my fingers crossed on JD’s behalf.
Despite AH’s efforts to convince the world otherwise, drug & alcohol abuse are not synonymous with physical abuse. And everything else put forward only reinforces that AH, and not JD, was the one perpetrating the violence in their dynamic.
JD deserves justice, and I hope he gets some.
#JusticeForJohnnyDepp
—————————————-
He also deserves not to be written out of the franchise that he was instrumental in making great.
#nojohnnynopirates
THERE IS ONLY ONE CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW AND THAT IS JOHNNY DEPP.!! NO ONE CAN EVER PLAY THAT PART AS IT BELONGS TO JD. I WILL DEFINITELY NEVER SEE ANOTHER POTC WITHOUT JOHNNY DEPP IN HIS ROLE & CHARACTER THAT HE BROUGHT TO LIFE AND PPL LOVE ❤️ AND ADMIRE.
JOHNNY DEPP TOOK THAT CHARACTER AND RAN WITH IT. HE MADE CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW WHAT IT IS TODAY. AND BY DOING SO HE HAS MADE MILLIONS FOR DISNEY YET THEY SHUT HIM OUT. BOY SOME THANK YOU. NOT TO MENTION IT HASNT BEEN RULED GUILTY OR INNOCENT IN A COURT OF LAW YET. CHECK BEHIND ME DISNEY BUT DOESN’T THE USA LAW STATE INNOCENT UNTILL
PROVEN
GUILTY. MOST JOBS EVEN THOUGH ACCUSED WILL STILL ALLOW YOU TO WORK UNTILL YOU ARE PROVEN GUILTY. YOU BEHIND TIMES. HE SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO CONTINUE TO WORK FOR DISNEY BECAUSE HE MADE THAT CHARACTER WHAT IT IS TODAY AND YOU ALL KNOW IT. UNTILL OR UNLESS PROVEN OTHERWISE. GET WITH THE TIMES DISNEY YOU ARE. KEEPING CHILDREN AS WELL AS ADULTS FROM ENJOYING CAPTAIN JACK. GET REAL
Johnny Depp..you will always have my support I know for a fact you are innocent of all that’s been said and her Karma will be issued for her treachery!!! You will always be Capt Jack Sparrow!!! Long live the Capt!!!!❤❤❤❤
We live in an unjust world that women aren’t the only ones that deal with abuse!! DISNEY MADE A SERIOUS MISTAKE !!!! Whst would happen if the majority of the world boycott them no visitation to the parks and cancel your disney plus subscriptions how bout that DISNEY!!!
johnny depp did NOT lose an appeal to the uk court. his request for an appeal was denied, by the same fool judge who delivered the original ruling. this all before evidence of heard’s abuse of him came out, or her lies about donating to charity the divorce settlement, as promised (which was something the judge in the uk trial had referred to, to validate her credibility and character).

Disney does not have a problem with selling merchandise with Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow’s likeness, having Jack Sparrow in the attraction Pirates of the Caribbean, and having a “face character” for pictures with the kids. Banning him from the movies is hypocritical!
Gayle
Johnny Depp is Jack Sparrow. No one can play that role like he can!!!! I will not be watching the new movie if anyone but Johnny is in the role. He perfected that role.
Karen Meer
I LOVE that he bought it! He IS JACK SPARROW. the pirates franchise means nothing without him. How ridiculous that he was blackballed. I hope they eventually reconsider because I will NEVER see a film without him in it unless it was HIS choice. I still love Disney the Magic but Disney the “Arbiters of morality” are highly questionable.
Patricia Jeffree
No one can replace Johnny Depp as Sparrow. I for one wont be viewing any new film with anyone else than Johnny Depp as Captain Jack.
Michael Balla
It would not be ” Pirates of the Caribbean ” if they took Johnny Depp out. As far as Disney is concerned they have enough sins not to cast that stone.
jo
Disneys greedy man chapek has to go. He gotten rid of a Disney ICON. Chapek has already convicted Depp guilty. So sad. I thought in America we were innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. Such a loss for Disney. There is no replacement for Jack Sparrow.
jan
Johnny Depp Is Cap Jack Sparrow. Thats it, all she wrote. I have heard his ex had a make-up artist do brusies on her face to make her claim. If thats true, this person should be made to tell the truth.
Keep you’re hesd high Mr, Depp. Yoir fans are with you.
Sam
Johnny Depp IS Jack Sparrow. The movies mean nothing without him and this character.
Nora
No one else can play the part.
Linda M Graff
There will only be ONE Captain Jack Sparrow.
Johnny Depp
Dante
No Johnny = NO Pirates of the Caribbean ☝🏼
It’s so wrong what Disney did, without being found guilty they already made up their mind about him and make him seem guilty for the accusations to the world. Not right at all!!
Josena
Johnny deep is Jack sparrow. No other could do the character justice.
Also on a side note he is Gilbert Grindelwald as well.
Teresa
There will never ever be another Jack Sparrow besides Johnny Depp. I I think that it is absolutely horrendous that after all the money that Depp has made for Disney oh, that they abandon him and throw him to the wolves. The case has not even went to court yet to prove whether or not he is guilty. Whatever happened to innocent before proven guilty? And even if he is guilty of pushing her, it sounds to me like she had beating on him quite a bit. A man can only take so much. I don’t believe in a man hitting a woman, but I do believe in protecting yourself. I’ve seen some crazy women go after a man. Kind of strange that nothing like this has ever happened before to Depp, and not since. Johnny Depp’s fans are loyal and Disney will go down. I will boycott every Disney film from now on, for letting him go.
Elaina
Johnny is jack sparrow and that will never change.
Sally
I will never watch another Pirates movie unless Johnny Depp is in it as Jack Sparrow. He is Jack Sparrow and always will be.
Anne Sutherland
There is only 1 jack sparrow,nobody else will do.
Jill
So for me, I love that he got the island!! He is the one and only Capt Jack!I hope Disney kinda has a hard time finding location for POC. lol.. and I believe JD when he says how beautiful it is and that your pulse rate drops!!So next time I go walking around my subdivision.. Im taking my new warmie.. its a Teddy Bear as cute as can be.. that u can warm in microwave.. and its name is JD.. lol and as I walk, I will pretend its an island!! xoxoxJ.
Janet
Pirates of the Caribbean is Jack Sparrow, Johnny Depp is Jack Sparrow end of! No one but no one could play his part; no storyline can be without him, especially when it comes to a woke lesbian pairing. Who wants to go to see that or take kids to that instead of Jack?
Tamara Dowd
No Depp, no Sparrow . No watchie the movie. Simple
Lori Galaviz
I don’t see how they could even try to take the character of jack sparrow away from johnny Depp. He is the real and only Jack Sparrow. No one can ever take that away from him. No one else could do Jack like Johnny Depp.
Theresa
From the outside…
I think he’s being punished by someone who married him only to gain wealth and attention. He was duped, then dropped, when this role is clearly his, (as well as others he could add to).
There are people living and dealing with serious,
real spousal abuse, and this fiasco hasn’t helped their cause, or aided in their much needed and deserved credibility.
Much luck to you, Johnny Depp.
Sandra
Johnny Depp IS, and ALWAYS will be Jack Sparrow!!!!! There is NO correlation between his divorce and his career of POTC. DISNEY is totally Wrong to refuse his return to this franchise. To remake the movie is stupid. Johnny is the movie, he deserves to continue to be the pirate he created and is the ONLY person who can be this character. He makes him perfect, anyone else will FAIL. And Disney will flop if Johnny is not part of the continued movies.
Sondra Maria McBride Williams
There is only one,
“Jack Sparrow ”
And
That is and always will be,
“Johnny Depp.”
No matter what !!!
He is my “HERO”.
Madee P.
Johnny Depp is the one and only Captain Jack Sparrow!! I will never watch another POC if Johnny isn’t CJS!!!! Dragging his personal life into this is just wrong and unfair. Shame on you Disney… You’re going to lose ALOT of $$$$ and followers by being stupid. I have nothing against LGBTQ but I absolutely will not watch a lesbian pirate movie in place of JD. I mean….. seriously??? Hang in there Johnny… What goes around comes around. Peace
Sondra Maria McBride Williams
Lord knows I luvs me some
Johnny Depp.
He is one very sexy ☠ pirate.
Ohhhh gets me everytime.
Jeff Jones
The bias of the author is unmistakable. No mention that he also named a beach after Amber Heard? They also alluded to the US case deciding guilt or innocence when these are also civil lawsuits (each suing for defamation in a lawsuit and counter suit) and can only determine financial liability, not guilt.
RobbieRa
Hurd’s guilty of false testimony and falsifying photographic evidence. Wrong again, Jeff!
Jeff Jones
The law and personal safety should always take precedence over pop culture. John Lennon was also a wife beater and abusive father. The laws are intended to protect victims but can’t when society fails to impose a strict sense of morality. For some reason beating your wife continues to be shrugged off by both men and women as if it’s to be expected. Less than 10% of DV cases lead to prosecution in the US. It’s disgraceful and Johnny Depp is trying to set a dangerous precedent that will cost all victims if he wins. Far more important than some ridiculous pirate flick.
RobbieRa
Lucky the person you’re slandering passed away, eh, Jeff? Stop lying just to make yourself look like you know what you’re talking about!
Jim James
You’re on a roll, alright @Jeff but just because Lennon revealed in an interview in playboy that he was abusive this only shows a stark difference between AH and JD. You conveniently omit her confessions of abuse on her legally sworn-in audio tapes which she completely skips over as evidence, as do you. And she is the one who was not persecuted for her arrest for DV abuse and NO ONE accuses JD of domestic violence but HERD! Stop twisting the facts! Herd is the one setting a dangerous precedence by LYING ABOUT HER ABUSE of him and her other partners, which she will not get way with much longer.
Cameron
I think it is wonderful that he does and he does captain Jack Sparrow at a Hospital in Canada and he loves doing that for the kids and even there families and they are really touched by that and enjoy it and it means a lot to them what Johnny Depp has done up there for them and he does need to keep that role and nobody should not and I repeat not for someone not to get that role and you can’t give that away from Johnny Depp and I am protecting him
Gayle
Johnny Depp is the Only person who Can play Jack Sparrow. He Has Totally Made that Character. I Don’t believe that Disney Should Shut him Out of the Character that Depp Made His Own and Disney Has Capitalized On His Portrayal of that Character. The Trial isn’t Even Decided. Innocent Until Proved Guilty Beyond a Reasonable Doubt Is the Law in America – By the Way Disney!
Di
Only ONE Captain Jack Sparrow
Only ONE Johnny Depp
He can be replaced but the film will completely bomb If Disney wants the same actors such as Brian McNally I think they will turn it down I won’t EVER watch it without Johnny Depp
Cat
Johnny Depp IS Capt. Jack Sparrow and Capt. Jack is Johnny Depp. Any questions?
Shel
Good for him taking time to unwind and enjoy!
Still here😊 Texas Hold’em is no joke! Try a ROYAL FLUSH before all hope is lost in URANUS. I forsee Queen of Diamonds sticking to it FOREVER, a genuine gem in the… What did you call it, solace?🤣🤣🤣
She should prove her case in court Jeff. Gender does not determine abuse or justice!
Gregory Clark
Johnny Depp will always be the only Jack Sparrow. I will not go to see another Pirates film with him not in it as Captain Jack Sparrow. No one can play that part better than Johnny Depp. I hope Disney will change their minds and bring him back. If not I’m done with Disney.
Barbara Budde
Johnny Depp is Jack Sparrow and no one should ever replace him!!!!!!!!
Richard Schwenk
He is Jack Sparrow. Why have Margot Robbie do a a female version when there are 3 storylines continue and expand. Will Turner, Selma Hiatt’s character(Blackbeards’ daughter) and Barbosas’ daughter.
ChattyCdn
Johnny Depp doesn’t need to “become” Jack Sparrow; he -is- Jack Sparrow.
A fact that is made by all the more obvious when you find out that Disney didn’t even like Johnny’s interpretation of the character in the first place.
Basically, despite it being Disney’s IP, everything everyone loves most about Jack Sparrow; everything that made the character a unique inspiration to children and adults alike for decades; exists not thanks to Disney, but despite Disney. If not for Johnny Depp, PotC would have been just another in a long line of failed pirate movies.
Devin Hand
Depp’s Jack Sparrow is the original and only Jack Sparrow!

Nice to see an article that acknowledges that there have been no charges, convictions etc.. Too many articles purposefully omit that, and still worse, post about him having been “found guilty” by a “High Court judge” as though he’d been criminally tried.
No. Just… NO.
That isn’t what happened at all.
JD lost his CIVIL libel/slander suit against the Sun newspaper (primarily because the judge mistakenly took AH at her word for almost everything – unfortunate since the number of times she committed perjury during that trial continues to climb as new info is keeps coming to light).
It was neither, however, a criminal court nor criminal trial and, as such, did not require the kind of proof required to find someone guilty of a crime (ie “beyond all reasonable doubt”).
Instead, the UK judge worked on a civil scale, where his verdict, when you skip the ‘court speak’, boiled down to the conclusion that “The paper could call JD an abuser because that claim was
(to the tune of just 51%) more likely true than not true”.
The UK trial also didn’t test the validity of AH’s testimony in the same way it would have had she been an official party there, rather than just a witness. A fact that has already been acknowledged by the Virginia judge, who wrote:
“The Court is not persuaded by Defendant’s [AH] argument that Plaintiff [JD] had a full and fair opportunity to litigate the UK action,” Azcarate wrote in a dense opinion released today (read it here). “Defendant [AH] was not a party in the UK action and was not treated as one. Because
she was not a named defendant, she was not subject to the same discovery rules applicable to named parties.”
Point of note though, the Virgina case is also not a criminal one. Like the UK case, it’s a civil one, so it can neither exonerate nor convict him off a crime.
What a win in Virginia could do, though, is provide JD with some vindication and a small amount of justice.
Personally, having read through transcripts, looked at publicly available evidence, watched official depositions, and unofficial legal breakdowns… I’ve got my fingers crossed on JD’s behalf.
Despite AH’s efforts to convince the world otherwise, drug & alcohol abuse are not synonymous with physical abuse. And everything else put forward only reinforces that AH, and not JD, was the one perpetrating the violence in their dynamic.
JD deserves justice, and I hope he gets some.
#JusticeForJohnnyDepp

He also deserves not to be written out of the franchise that he was instrumental in making great.

Desley
Depp is Jack Sparrow, a film without Depp will b a dismal failure
Nora
johnny depp did NOT lose an appeal to the uk court. his request for an appeal was denied, by the same fool judge who delivered the original ruling. this all before evidence of heard’s abuse of him came out, or her lies about donating to charity the divorce settlement, as promised (which was something the judge in the uk trial had referred to, to validate her credibility and character).
Debra Walsh
Jack Sparrow ” Captain Jack Sparrow” 🙄 there will never be a replacement for Johnny Depp personally I won’t be watching it EVER 🏴☠️🦜
