Also if I like Dwayne Johnson, I am done with ‘Pirates of the Caribbean”. It started to get boring anyway, a highlight was Johnny Depp, but now it’s over. Rest in peace.
Right with you there. Really though? If it was a new player, someone who needed a boost but this guy just jumped the shark for me. Was done with Disney before Johnny. Let’s see what Johnny’s doing next.
Without Johnny Depp there is no Pirates of the Caribbean period. He made that franchie what it became. I do love Dawyne Johnson but not in this, even some of the roles Disney put him in didn’t fit him. Looks like Disney has lost the magic and just out for the money.
I’m going to give my opinion. If Jonny Deep had not created Jack Sparrow, the franchise would not have been successful. He is an essential piece in the saga. Now, without him, I do not think it will be the same. He is a character that gives that magical touch that no one can replace. In fact, without Jack Sparrow, he would not have been born. my character “James Albert Sparrow Parrott” but better known as James Parrott or J’S Parrott based on him and taking a bit of others like Captain Flint, Barbossa, Black Beard or Teach as it’s really called good of all a bit but the basic is Jack’s I think Dwane Johnson would not fit the role is a formidable actor but Deep is the only one.
Without Johnny, it would not be the same. And if Disney continues to use Johnny’s likeness in merch, the ride, etc, will he get royalties? Can he sue them if they don’t compensate him?
Hello No,Pirates of Caribbean Franchise has been alive because of John Depp,The Rock is great actor as well but no on this franchise ,when Disney end working with John Depp we don’t expect them to be selling any stuffs related to John Depp or use his name or picture in any of their work otherwise they will be sued ,as fans we don’t want to see the franchise die that way Disney want simply by using his personal life problems ( which still pit him in stress ) we expected Disney to be on his side since day 1 of case even helping with legal support but they didn’t…Shame on you Disney
i same love dwayne johnson but in my opinion jjack sparow isnt jack sparow without JD ,and i think they made a bad decision in replaceig him with dwayne
Everybody loves Dwayne Johnson he is an amazing actor but he has no jack sparrow. Nobody can replace Johnny Depp the show is ruined and nobody’s going to watch it. They are going to lose millions
It’s Disney who Depp fans and anyone turned off by their pplitical correct woke culture are boycotting, not the actors they choose to replace him with. People are done with Disney!
Without Johnny they might as well throw out the whole thing cuz he was the only reason most ppl watched anyway. Taking him out was your worst mistake mister producer man.
I like the Rock but it’s WRONG not to use Johnny. That won’t even look right without the REAL Jack Sparrow. If she never did that childish writeup this would never happened. Not his fault. I won’t watch the movie without Johnny.
Love the Rock but he is NOT a Capt Jack Sparrow kind of guy. (Dang… he is everywhere & I’m kind of tired with him. It’s like having Frozen everywhere!) If Rock was being hired as the ‘bad guy,’ it would make Pirates a little more interesting. There is NO Pirates franchise withOUT JOHNNY DEPP!!!
Boycott all Disney pirate movies. All Johnny Depp fans could refuse to attend on principal and send the strongest, loudest message to the Disney corporation!
Without Johnny Depp there is no Pirates of the Caribbean. Yet Disney is still making a profit off of Jack Sparrow memorabilia, toys, clothing items etc. Shame on Disney! I will boycott every Disney show/movie there is or will be.
Very true ill be DONE TO BRING BACK THE HOT BABE NAME JOHNNY DEPP 🙏 …
YOUR RATINGS WILL FOR SURE GO DOWN DOWN DOWN DOWN 👎
BRING JOHNNY YOULL MAKE MILLIONS TRILLIONS IN THE BOX OFFICE THAT IS FORSURE!!!!! GIGI
I love the Rock, but he is not Johnny Depp. Johnny brings Jack Sparrow to life as I believe no other actor could. All of the characters he has portrayed, have been unique and it is only because of the dedication he put into the role.
I agree. I have nothing against Dwayne Johnson but he is no Johnny Depp or Jack Sparrow. I will never watch another pirates of the Caribbean again unless it’s the old ones with Johnny Depp. Rest In Peace Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) you can’t ever be replaced.
As much as I love watching Dwayne and admire his acting career…replacing a well known character with a different actor is always a bad idea, unless you are just doing local melodramas each year. I write and direct local theatrical dance shows and the audience emotionally bonds with certain actors that perform in the shows. If you switch them out even when there may be just a slight difference between the 2 actors….you will start to lose your audience and their loyalty for future shows or sequels. It’s like replacing Steve Perry from “Journey” with another vocalist that sounds just like him. (Like they did)… and it never worked in the long run. Leave it be, if you are not bringing back Johnny…..or try to create another character, even if you have to have Dwayne be Jack’s Sparrow’s long lost brother or cousin. Otherwise you will damage the character’s image of what Johnny brought to the table by playing Jack Sparrow.
I liked Dwayne Johnson but he’s no Captain Jack Sparrow! That character will forever be synonymous with Johnny Depp and him alone. Disney needs to understand you can’t replace a character created from someone’s heart.
No, Pirates of Caribbean just isn’t the same, the only reason people went to see was johnny depp, he made those movies because of the surprises and laughter he brought! I won’t do Disney anymore, evidently Johnny Depps fans never left him under the accusations he faced, and Disney charged hom guilty
I like Dwayne but I support Will and Johnny and starting to get sick of the crap. Will was protecting his wife and back in the day it would have been appreciated now it’s wrong. As for Johnny Amber is just ridiculous and how any one can believe the manipulative wench I will never know.
Jack Sparrow is Johnny Depp..!! The Rock nor any other actor could ever compare to Johnny’s personality, his carisma, nor his Heart and Soul that he puts into Capt. Jack Sparrow!! No Johnny, No Pirates of the Caribbean..!!
Only Depp can do Capt. Jack. Bring him back. Not saying Johnson can’t play a role of some sort. Depp is an actor that can play any role. He’s a performer.
NO one can replace Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow. Disney made a HUGE mistake cutting Johnny out of the franchise. Shame on you Disney. Same with WB. Huge mistake.
I agree totally Johnny makes the movie, Wake up Disney…No Johnny No movie! It would be a huge waste of time and money, nobody wants to see it without him!! Just bring him back
I agree. Disney has gone down hill in my eyes in many ways. I like Dwane, but pirates movies are all about Jonny Depp! No Jonny Depp? Disney looses my vote!! Big mistake.
I’m totally with you on that! Depp is the ONLY Jack Sparrow any of us want to see, NOT the Rock! He’s good just where he is in FAST & FURIOUS franchise and Jumanji, so those STUPID PRODUCERS are all gonna EAT CROW when they see the empty movie theaters, because no one is going to go! PLEASE STOP TRYING TO REPLACE ACTORS WHO ARE LOVED BY one that doesn’t fit the part! But ya’ll gonna LOSE TONS OF MONEY!!🤣🤣
Jumamji ONLY belonged to Robin Williams! (RIP) Shameful to me is that a continuation J II was done and Dwanye being made the lead character 😢 I like Dwayne but lets face it he really is not the comedic type of actor!The family movies he’s been in has always had to have a funny actor that really makes the movie!
Dwayne Johnson is a mediocre actor at best. He has one lane action hero and that is about it.
The pirate franchise had multiple powerhouse actors including Orlando Bloom. Dwayne Johnson is not at that level and might never be unless he breaks out of that stereotypical role.
Start a new with the franchise and hand the reigns to someone else and please before you interject the word “woke” into every conversation do some research. Pirates were actually more democratic than most governments of their time, not to mention “woke” in their pursuit of creating an even playing field by stealing from the rich and distributing the plunder amongst those who risked and labored for it.
The character Captain Jack sparrow portrayed by Johnny Depp is so iconic you can’t replace that character in that Franchise. If Depp is not in it neither am I.
That’s what happens when you’re Disney, you make rash decision and listen to your audience only after you almost ruined a franchise.
Unfortunately, this time they won’t be able to save it.
It specifically said the Rock would not be Jack Sparrow but another character. Maybe Jack will self identity as a woman and become Margot Robbie. A woke move that I could easily see Disney making. Capt Jacqueline Bird of Prey.

Tim in San Francisco no one can play Captain Jack Sparrow a size Johnny Depp it would be Disney’s worst mistake they ever made if they cast Dwayne Johnson as the captain
Johnny Depp is clearly the one and only Jack Sparrow. If his manager smart Johnny Depp’s manager will find him another movie house and create a whole new character. His fans will follow him they will follow him to the face of the Earth. This trial will be over soon and he can get back to what he does best. It is the big screen. Doesn’t have to be Jack Sparrow it can be another pirate of the sea. I’m already lining up to buy tickets for his new film whatever it is.
No Johnny Depp? No wayi will watch this movie! Everything that the Rock gets cast in, gets cheesey immediately-& not in a good way. Captain Jack Sparrow 💙 4-ever
Disney will regret this decision. They just don’t get it. Depp created the best portrayal of Jack Sparrow. No one can replace him..from what I have seen, no one will accept anyone but Depp. Fools at Disney will create a massive flop!!
Nobody can play Jack Sparrow but Johnny Depp, everyone knows that. Deep made Pirates of the Caribbean what it is, without Deep, it will not be good. I don’t care to watch it without Johnny in it.
I like dwayne, but Jonny is the best in this film. I love the film. no one can act like jonny as jack sparrow. So for me no new pirates film! And i think it will a bad movie without him. My little boys love jack sparrow to. The grow up with this films
I don’t care who you get, Sparrow is not Jack Sparrow without Johnny Depp..I will NOT watch. Disney is sending mixed messages..they support sonme extreme, contiversial thing or 2, but won’t give a 2nd chance to Johnny Depp? And he’s being ragged on by his ex. Who knows what is truth? Let sleeping dogs lue..let Johnny Depp be Jack Sparrow. This us all UTTERLY ridiculous!!
Why Disney would even think that keeping “Pirates” going without J. Depp is a purely idiotic and stupid idea..He made the franchise the success it has become…100% will not watch the train wreck that would ensue if this movie actually is made and released.Period!!!
No one but JD can play Jack Sparrow, but here’s it’s talk about new characters getting spin-offs, which I think is fine. I do believe JD should get some cameos, though, as that would keep the thread in the series.
No johnny no jack your movie will fail as if any one will watch this joke of a movie directors just wrote pirates of the Caribbean Johnny made the Pirate of the Caribbean what it is today to replace them with the rock a wrestler come on give him better credit than that if you’re going to replace him don’t get me wrong the rock is a good actor but not for Jack Sparrow as if muscles like that for a captain come on people pick a better dude but as I said the movie will fail at the box office Dwayne Johnson Johnny is Captain Jack Sparrow thee END
I like Dwayne J. But cmon man do you think you can parade a big name out there and assume everything will be alright. Johnny made that character and that made the movies along with a great script. Dwayne don’t do it, you need to do a cool role like Predators, mission impossible or Jaws.
No Depp then just Stop making them they will never be the same he made jack sparrow Character what it is no one else can do the same making somebody else that character it’s just worng And disappointing
Nothing wrong with Dwayne Johnson, but he isn’t Captain Jack Sparrow. He can’t replace Johnny Depp. A Pirates of the Caribbean movie wouldn’t be the same without Depp and I wouldn’t bother to watch it
With all due respect to the Rock, He is NOT the Cure for what ails The Pirates franchise. I’m sorry but if you don’t get Johnny Depp back in his rightful role as Captain Jack then NONE of us will watch any Pirates movie without him!
BRING JOHNNY DEPP BACK NOW!
The Rock needs to chill and just say No! He doesn’t need to interject himself into any other franchise. POTC needs to go away forever. It’s on DVD and streaming wherever it’s streaming.
Disney will lose millions if they try to reboot Pirates without Depp. No Margot Robbie or Dwayne Johnson will work. Whoever heard of a muscle-bound pirate? Just not realistic. No women would have ever been a pirate along side men back in those days. Disney is so woke, they will never admit they made a huge mistake dumping Depp.
He won’t play jack sparrow, but I agree, depp makes the pirate movies what it is. Also the lead character is now going to a female role, Margot Robbie…. A completely different turn of events. They are rewriting history. I don’t recall pirates being led by women (and yes I am a girl… this has nothing to do with being down on women so no need to get your panties in a bunch folks). I just think this is getting a bit crazy…. Maybe it’s time to, as the Queen Elsa would sing, “let it go”, and retire the pirates saga while you are ahead before you sink it.
Thank you for the insight, I hadn’t heard of the Irish pirate. And it is nice to see this, but I still feel Disney needs to stop trying to change the story line, and let it go. If they aren’t going to continue with Depp…. And Jack Sparrow (who is the lead in this story) then come up with something new.
But again, thank you for the education. I’m not knocking it in at all. I know there are female pirates (I don’t live under a rock)…. Women can and have done just about everything they set their minds to do. Disney needs new material.
You kill it ruthlessly by trying to replace the unreplaceable charactet or you let it die peacefully at the bottom of the sea….or give us back our Jack Spsrrow
They just need to cancel the movie. This will not be same without Johnny Depp. I love Dwayne, but he has limited acting skills the eyebrow thing well that’s over done. Need to sign a petition to get Johnny back!
Dwayne Johnson as Jack Sparrow? I don’t think so. Only one actor can play that role and that’s Johnny Depp. As for me, I’m done with ANYTHING that has to do with Disney, they are making a BIG mistake
As much as I like Dwayne Johnson, this is a bad move as he could never replace Johnny Depp who made that role a classic! I won’t be watching it either unfortunately…
Well I’m guessing after this is released and Disney takes a huge $ loss, and they will. This will be the last Pirates movie. The Rock? Wow terrible choice Disney!
I HATE Disney…..Johnny Depp and Pirates go together.
Only Him, can play the part as Jack Sparrow.
Get it??? No replacements, I don’t watch either if you do.
I’m sorry but I like Dwayne Johnson but no one is going to do like Johnny Depp He’s always going to be Jack Sparrow And if hes not Jack Sparrow I’m done.
WTF you just killed the film the rock is no Jack Sparrow why are you even making this movie it’s dead you killed it Pirets Of The Caribbean is now dead you can’t just change the person playing the main part everyone knows Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow so yep movie franchise is dead
This is wrong. Johnny Depp has not been given an adequate opportunity to defend his reputation. Johnny Depp is the Pirates franchise anyway. Without him, I am through with this franchise.
Like the Rock but getting a little tired of seeing him. Need to get some rest. As for Johnny Depp there’s No One that can replace him. He is Captain Jack Sparrow and He is the Pirates of the Caribbean….without Captain Jack Sparrow the show is Dead. As for Disney itself I will not watch anything they make. I’ve taken it out my TV programs….
Although I like Dwayne Johnson, to me you cannot change the person who plays the main character. On a side note I have to say farewell to Disney, there are many reasons why and I don’t need to politically get into them today. But this was just the nail in the coffin!! Shame on the Disney corporation, I hope that repercussions well allow them to feel even a quarter of what they put Mr Depp hrough!!
Im sorry but Im sticking with everybody here. There is no Pirates of the Caribbean with the Capt. Jack Sparrow Johnny Depp. I will save my money and watch tv instead.
Mildred
Iff the rock does pirates he’ll probably be a different character. He’s got more class than that. Johnny will be a great actor no matter what and he’ll survive no matter what some foolish movie executives think.
Just like everything Disney touches regarding a sequel they will kill it and destroy it terrible .Way to go Disney Dwayne Johnson I don’t think so Captain Jack on steroids I don’t think so. Killing Star wars wasn’t bad enough now pirates of the Caribbean fu#k you Disney and you’re overpriced overrated Park
This has to be a joke. There is no way this will work.
Disney you have made a horrible mistake with this. Johnny Depp made you MILLIONS and you turn your back on him? Well I will never see it.
I LOVE DWAYNE JOHNSON, but HE CANNOT PULL THIS PART OFF. No way, no how! Johnnie MADE THAT PART WHAT IT IS. After all the money Depp made for Disney, it’s an awful shame they abandoned him with NO REAL PROOF OF DOING ANYTHING WRONG! Disney and Rollins should be ashamed of themselves. BRING BACK JOHNNIE DEPP!!!!! WE LOVE AND ADORE HIM!!!
If i was The Rock, i would turn it down for several reasons.
1. To support a “wronged” person
2. Because he should understand that while he is an exceptional talent himself, Johnny Depp has created a Jack Sparrow that is uniquely loved and CANNOT be replaced by anyone. It would be wiser to KILL the character and create a new one, with the hopes that this new character will CLICK with the viewers, but thats highly improbable, knowing how DISNEY management treated Johnny Depp situation, then seeing via the trial how Johnny was wronged by Amber.
3. This would be a huge gamble for The Rock because he has already created his own brand of greatness and does NOT need to prove himself. Taking this role may jeopardize that brand.
Lets say, he succeeds in portraying a good Jack Sparrow is that going to build on his legend? Not necessarily…but if he fails…this would adversely affect what he has built. It would look like he is after the money…which he has a lot of and which he can make by continually building on his own brand. So RISK-REWARD ration is not wise.
Now that Disney has lost all common sense, and going to put The Rock in as Capt. Jack. I have no desire to watch another Pirates of the Caribbean movie. Johnny Depp made that character, and was that character. Good luck making your money back,Disney!
You ppl should be embarrassed. To have an opinion you need to understand the subject matter! 90% of these comments are extremely uninformed. Jack is NOT being replaced, just wrongfully eliminated altogether. Can’t wait to watch this failure play out. No Depp, no POTC. PIRATES w/ as “S”, yes there can be others, but fans are fed up and unforgiving. Disney is done if they keep on current path…. #therealawoken is we the ppl.
I too will stop watching the Pirate movies if they get rid of Johnny Depp.. I have decided to not watch the movies that Will Smith was fired from as well. One thing has nothing to do with the other. This world is going crazy….
Oh I hate to see this. I really hope it doesn’t destroy your career. Your an excellent actor. I for one will not ever see another Pirates of the Caribbean again after what they did to Johnny Depp.
Well I guess Disney likes to kill perfectly good franchises, The Rock is not even a relative replacement for Johnny Depp personally if Depp wins his case Disney should reinstate his role as Jack Sparrow. Disney is going in the wrong direction in so many ways right now, they need to rethink who is running the company.
This has to be a joke right??? Dwayne is too comical looking for this part. Everytime i see him i think of other movies he has been in leaning way toward a childrens audience. His body type, facial expressions, and EVERYTHING will be so off. Two thumbs down for me!! I wouldnt even watch it once it came free on satellite. Johnny will always be the ONLY Jack Sparrow!!
Dwayne is a very good actor but to take Johnny Depp place as Jack Sparrow you got to be kidding. Why are u doing this … Everyone gets divorces everyday . No Johnny Depp no buy movie. I have them all too.
Only Johnny Depp can be Jack Sparrow. HE is Jack Sparrow. It doesn’t matter how many actor have played James Bond. None made the impact of the James Bond character like Johnny Depp has as Jack Sparrow. He put his own twist on the character and personalized it in a way that no other actor can. Disney screwed up and showed their true loyalty and colors by dropping Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow. I will never support another actor as Jack Sparrow. EVER!
A. Completely. Slap in. The face for. Johnny. Depp you. Watched a. Amber heard who is. A. Dis grace to all woman a. Liar. I. Feel. Terrible. For. Mr Depp and. Hope the. People. Boycott. Disney
YUCK…never saw anything in him. Not even close to the talent and good looks of Johnny Depp. Very bad choice…but Disney is screwing everything up…why not this.
Disney sure knows how to screw something up. Dwayne Johnson lacks the talent that Johnny Depp has to play Jack Sparrow. But on the other hand pit a talentless actor into a dying franchise. Seems aboit right for Disney.
No one can play Captain Jack but Johnny Depp. I love Dwayne Johnson however. I just think Disney to let the story die, they have already buried the main charactor!!
There is no Pirates of the Caribbean without Johnny Depp. I will never watch one that doesn’t have him in it. Disney should never have turned their back on him without evidence especially when they knew him so well.
Disney has nailed their coffin with me. First they’ve messed up with their woke joke political stance. Now. No Johnny Depp?! Sorry, I love Dwayne Johnson, but, neither I, nor my children or grandchildren will be watching any new Pirates film–or-anything else from Disney. I’m totally done.
Not going to lie I do like the rock Dwayne Johnson as an actor but I think Johnny Depp should get that spot back it should have never been taken from him and to be honest I’m not interested in seeing The Rock Dwayne Johnson playing Jack Sparrow! After this Johnny Depp trial and so many people know the truth that Amber was the abusive one there’s going to be Millions who will not watch any more Pirates of the Caribbean movies if Johnny Depp isn’t Jack sparrow! Disney really did make a big mistake with how they treated Johnny because of Amber turd… smfh.. Disney you need to fix this!! NOWWW!!!
There is no Pirates of the Caribbean without Captain Jack Sparrow and there’s no Captain Jack Sparrow without Johnng Depp. I hope Disney loses their tush on this. Serves them right for dropping someone whose made them BILLIONS based on an unproven accusation.
Don’t get me wrong I love “The Rock” but no Johnny no movie!! I have been a big Disney collector for 28 years, now all I can say is Disney can go screw them self. They totally messed up not waiting to hear this mess all the way through. You go Johnny we are all behind yo!!
Pirates of the Caribbean will not be the same without Johnny Depp. I like the Rock, he just doesn’t belong replacing Johnny. Let the series end on a good ride
I did like Duane Johnson but I honestly think he’s fake n woke. I know this sounds stupid but I wish no one would have taken the role. He got screwed and then Duane just steps in. Cuz he doesn’t have enough money as it is. I said I know it sounds stupid its just 5 films and all had Johnny then was going to do 6th until the ex wrote her story. Whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty? They just dumped him. Pirates of the Caribbean is Johnny, Orlando bloom. So then it should end. And Amber Heard should have to spent least 30 dsys in jail watching what real DV women have gone through..My rant is over
Dwayne Johnson of all people? He can’t act at all. All of his characters are exactly the same with a few minor differences sprinkled in here and there. If they do this there will be massive backlash, and wind up being DOA.
I watched Pirates of the Caribbean because Depp made it worthwhile, No Depp… Not watching. Changing the Actors is like trying to replace Paul Walker. Or trying to find a replacement for The Black Panther … There is only one person who could play him and may he Rest in Peace. Now y’all go ahead but The Rock will never make it as Capt. Jack Sparrow. Depp somehow blends into the Character….
Dwayne is a great actor! But Johnny Depp IS Capt Jack Sparrow! Like saying another star could be Charlie Chaplin – Depp dug deep & made Jack & all the moves Voice, swagger & charm – he owns it & always will -💕💕💕💕💕

You actually think you can replace Johnny Depp what a shame Disney has become just stop making movies it’s all crap just leave your movies for the little kids
Look the Rock is known to play tuff. How do u think he will look on this movie, 🤔 it doesn’t make sense. I’m no producer but, I think this is so foolish. Plus Dwayne my respects to you but you willing to take this lrole is wrong. I understand your trying to build a relationship with Disney,but don’t do it by stepping on toes. That’s wrong Johnny Depp doesn’t deserve this for something he hasn’t done wrong. Disney n Dwayne don’t let money make u ugly. It’s going to backfire. With all do respects. Think smart. Johnny Depp or NO MOVIE PERIOD!!!
You dont need Disneys repor. They’ll turn their backs on the rock to. It’s about bottom line for them. One bad rumor and they’ll kick the rock to the curb too. Once they see this movie will flop, make no money for them. Bye, Rock. Just wait!, you’ll see.
He replaced Brendan Fraser in Journey to the Centre of the Earth 2… Sorry you’ve always been second best. They can find a better pirate than that millionaire in my opinion.
I’m done with Disney. I’ll not watch another movie, will not buy anything with Disney on it, I’ll not go on vacation at Disney Parks, rent rooms at the Disney motels. You betrayed Johnny!!!
Sounds like a really bad joke. Having Dwayne Johnson enter the film isn’t going to make it better. Johnny Depp is the highlight of the Pirate’s franchise. This would just be sad.
I like the Rock, but him as Jack Sparrow is a bad idea. Johnny has played Jack Sparrow so well for so long to cast someone other than Johnny for the role is unacceptable & disappointing as if firing him before proven guilty wasn’t upsetting enough, now they want to replace him. Good luck with that Disney. He’s irreplaceable. Pirates of the Carribean won’t ever be the same.
Any actor that jumps in on another’s territory especially beloved famous actor that was screwed over by those that should’ve known his true character yet turned their backs on, taking his territory his adventure away just for someone else to take over is another punch to the face. I liked the Rock but now I’m done with his movies. Anyone that can stab a fellow human being in the back knowing he’s innocent should be ashamed of themselves.
Johnny Depp made that franchise a success and without him it just will not be the same. Time for Disney to put the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise out to pasture. Depp will always be Captain Jack Sparrow and replacing him is just cruel and really sad. Justice for Johnny!!!
I am not watching this movie I like the Actress but Johnny Depp is Pirates of the Caribbean if Johnny Depp is it in the Pirates of the Caribbean I don’t wanna watch because when you think of pirates of the Caribbean you think of Johnny Depp and Jack sparrow
I am not watching this movie I like the Actress but Johnny Depp is Pirates of the Caribbean if Johnny Depp is it in the Pirates of the Caribbean I don’t wanna watch because when you think of pirates of the Caribbean you think of Johnny Depp and Jack sparrow
Love The Rock, but anyone in that character but Depp is just not right. I will not be spending any money on this film, no disrespect to anyone. Depp developed and nurtured that character and it will always belong to him.
The Rock is a plague of Hollywood. The dude is so narcissistic that he puts it in his contracts that he can’t lose a fight. He’s a fake action hero – just a wannabe Harrison Ford and Arnold. I mean come on – the guy was a pro wrestler, you REALLY think he’s got any acting ability to speak of? It’s unfathomable why this guy continues to get high profile work, but then I remember the low denominator graphic of America and it’s easily explained. Audiences have zero taste in actual film anymore, they just want mindless entertainment, not art. It’s disgusting.
I like Dwayne Johnson but if this is true I will not support it. The disgusting way Disney has Treated Mr. DEPP I will not watch any Disney movie at this point.
Although I love Dwayne Johnson pirates of the Caribbean could never be the same without Johnny Depp. They can’t have Johnny Depp just don’t make another one.
Disney is ruining everything,
they’re the ones who are gonna lose with their stupid decisions. NO ONE WILL WATCH PIRATES WITHOUT JOHNNY DEPP.
WE WANT JOHNNY!!! WE WANT JOHNNY!!! WE WANT JOHNNY!!! WE WANT JOHNNY!!! WE WANT JOHNNY!!! WE WANT JOHNNY!!! WE WANT JOHNNY!!!
“WE WANT JOHNNY!”,”WE WANT JOHNNY!”,”WE WANT JOHNNY!”,”WE WANT JOHNNY!”,”WE WANT JOHNNY!”. I’m right there with you! I can chant this all day. Strongly agree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If this is true I’m just all respect for Dwayne.. no actor should have even tried taking over this role, secondly.. the rock as a flamboyant pirate? NOOOO FRIGGIN WAY THATLL WORK. I won’t watch any pirates film without Depp as captain jack included
Johnny Depp made that Series! No Johnny Depp! No support! I like the Rock. But, not for this! Pirates is dead and buried with out Johnny! For me and my family who’s all in agreement. We will no longer support Pirates films. Bought the set that Johnny’s in. That’s all we’ll ever own.
I will not be watching any new pirates without Johnny in them. He is capt Jack Sparrow no one else. He made Jack Sparrow who he was. No one else can fill his boots.
Without Johnny, there is no pirates of the Caribbean.
I like the Rock, but no class in taking anything to do with what is rightfully Johnnys.. not just that but HOW DISNEY TREATED JOHNNY!! That’s what’s so classless about all of this… Disney should be ashamed of themselves, in a world where you are innocent until proven guilty… they acted as judge & jury, before the facts!
I don’t blame Johnny for walking away for good after how they have treated him.
Johnny is Cap’n Jack Sparrow, Disney’s loss an I hope it fails miserably.
This is the new world now. Guilty before proven otherwise. Cancel culture. You can’t cancel Johnny Depp. POTC IS NOTHING WITHOUT JOHNNY DEPP. He was born to be capt jack sparrow. And without him, it will fail. I will not go see it.
This is how out of touch Disney is with the real world. Their WOKE agenda was Depp is guilty until proven innocent.
Same disturbing WOKE agenda that they approve of Adults talking sex with 5 year olds.
Just change the Princess Castle to the Pedophile Palace . Nobody but woke idiots will pay to see another Pirates movie. Now that Depp proved his innocence Disney once again must eat crap and lost thousands of Disney fans.
Pirates is NOTHING without Johnny Depp. Good luck Disney. It’ll flop hard. I’m not the only person who’ll have this opinion. This will be 100% of POTC and Johnny depp. I do love the rock but this will just make people hate him just like Ashton Kutcher in two and a half men. I agree with another poster. It’s time to put POTC to rest now before you completely ruin it
There is NO WAY JOHNNY CAN BE REPLACED !!!! HE IS CAP.JACK SPARROW!!
DISNEY IS OUT OF THEIR MINDS!!!!
AND THIS FILM WILL BE BOTCOTTED I CAN GUARANTEE YOU THAT!!! DISNEY IS ABSOLUTLY CRAZY TO REPLACE JOHNNY DEPP!! I KNOW MILLIONS AND MILLIONS AGREE!!!!
Recasting Johnny-Depp’s role as Captain Jack Sparrow to someone, anyone, else is like recasting Daniel Radicliff’s role as Harry Potter before Deathly Hollows… it is just never going to work! Not to mention the majority public opinion after the conclusion of the trial that Amber is culpable. It’s time to reconsider your opinion Disney! (Especially when some of the same producers still work with Tom Cruise, who is deranged & spokesman for an abusive cult that takes children out of school, puts them into ‘life contracts’ & embezles $ from hundreds of thousands of people!!!) Hollywood makes no sense!
Disney and Johnny depp make ammends and make the movie the way it was intended. (Somewhere in the movie needs to be 300 Alpacas) JD IS the one and only Captain Jack Sparrow and will always be, no matter who you cast. You have known him for 20 years and he made you billions. The Rock is awesome but we all know who the real Captain Jack Sparrow is. Pirates were not perfect people either right? No one is perfect, we are all human. You cant just delete all people that dont fit into the perfect mold. Please reconsider. I have been on POTC ride to many times to count, watched all of your movies. Your fans of the movie series deserve to see the real Captain Jack Sparrow!!
I like Dwayne Johnson, but…. he will not fit the roll of Johnny Depp. Mr. Depp is the original character in this movie. Replacing Mr.Johnson will not be the same. No offense to Mr.Johnson but it will not be the same. Love both actors.
Love Dwayne..but Pirates movies are all about Johnny Depp!
DISNEY IS GOING DOWNHILL IN MY EYES IN MANY WAYS.
But not having Jonny Depp…sorry. lost my vote.
If Mister Smoking Hot Johnnie Depp is not going to Captain Jack Sparrow in the upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean then with sad heart . . . I am done with the “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise as a whole. Never in my whole life would I have thought that Disney would have taken such an iconic role away from one of the best world wide known franchises.
I didn’t much like Johnny Depp, but he was ok. But, Dwayne Johnson??!? You-all realize he was a Pro Wrestler??!? Every pro wrestler oughta be banned from acting. Period.
Good luck…any project where Jonny depp was fired from will have the same box office flop money wise as the fantastic beast…how’s was that smart??go broke on your bull Hollywood..tired of hearing fans have no control…um we line your pockets..think on that
I like the Rock, but not in Pirates of the Caribbean. The movie won’t be the same without Jack Sparrow and there’s only one Jack Sparrow and that is Johnny Depp. I’m in the process of ordering all movies with Johnny Depp. Disney owes him an apology. I definitely will not be watching a new Pirate movie without Johnny.
Wait what? Naw you guys are ruining movies. If you do this you will lose so many fans. We don’t watch that bull movie cause of Orlando bloom we watch it cause of jack Sparrow. The real one. Jonny Depp. I won’t waste no money going to watch it or even waste the gb’s to download it. Such a waste.
will be stupid thing to do by dweyn johnson no way he can ever replace Johny Depp he can only lose reputation by taking this Job
his managment should stop him
I am totally done with Disney. The way they did JD was typical of a power move done to all of us, daily.
As a former DV survivor, and a Social Worker for 35+years, i know REAL domestic violence and “made-up” DV… especially in the detail.
Disney should’ve held off decisions until BOTH sides of the stories could be heard.
I like Dwayne J. for his limited genre of performing. Not for this roll. He’s NO replacement for Mr. Depp, in any fashion or form. (But not too many self-professed “actors” are.) Let Pirates Go!! No one wins with this very bad decision.
Heck no..nobody can replace Our Captain Jack Sparrow…just like nobody can replace The Rock in his movies.. come on Disney get ur act together…and the Rock come on..any good actor would say no
I will not be watching the new film or even the spinoffs unless Johnny Depp plays captain Jack Sparrow I’ve got nothing against Dwayne he’s an amazing actor but only one man fits that role and I’m sorry but it most certainly is not u. Honest opinion complete disrespect to Johnny Depp for accepting that role. For me unless Johnny Depp is in the new ones the series is finished for me
I like Dwayne Johnson but I think if he was truly offers the role he should have turned it down. They should stand together because the exact same thing can happen to them. Johnny Depp made this movie and cannot, in my opinion, be replaced.
Dwayne is a great actor, would love to see him play the Genie. But I will not watch another POTC without Capt. Jack (Johnny Depp) Sparrow, will not be the same. Jerry is a back stabber along with Disney execs.
You have lost your mind the Rock can’t be Jack Sparrow only Johnny Depp. He is Jack Sparrow. I like the Rock but if he plays this part it will be a bomb
Wow, tell me you only read the header, without telling me you only read the header. Does nobody actually read anything?!?!?!
Quote from the “article”:
“It doesn’t seem that Johnson would play the role of Captain Jack Sparrow, but rather would be a different character introduced in the franchise, similar to what will be seen with Margot Robbie’s spinoff film. ”
He would not be playing Jack Sparrow, it would be a SPIN-OFF and completely different characters.
I watch Pirates because of Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow! Johnny Depp is why Pirates works, so no Johnny, no thanks! I don’t care who the put in the movie, without him I won’t watch another Pirates movie. #JusticeForJohnny
While I like Dwayne Johnson. I am not interested in any way in seeing him in a POC movie. I agree with the others. Without Jack Sparrow, just let the franchise go. Create something new for a change.
I like Dwanye Johnson …but he or anyone else could never replace Johnny as captain Jack sparrow..you lost out Disney when you let Johnny go….Johnny will be ok the world stands behind him ..Disney you never did…you don’t deserve Johnny in anyway shape or form..
That is not right at all the rock can’t pull that role off light Johnny Depp Disney is messing up while movie franchise the rock really big muscles bound it just want look right at all I’m done watching pirate movies unless stick with Johnny his character he pulls off so very well makes me mad just thinking about it these has Ben my favorite movies and now it’s ruined.
Stick a fork me I’m done with Disney!! There is only one Jack Sparrow and that is Johnny Depp!!
I love the Rock good man and a great actor.
But not for Pirates!!
I won’t be seeing this nor would I recommend anyone seeing it. Johnny Depp is Jack Sparrow, he made the character what it is today. Would rather them just kill the rest of the series. Then try to bring in someone to play in the last movie.
Nothing against the Rock but the dude is way to big to be captain jack sparrow now maybe a villain in the movie but without Johnny Depp it won’t be the same but if any thing bring a new young face in to be the child of sparrow just don’t replace him it doesn’t look good on Disney and the franchise especially now that he has been cleared of all allegations I would offer him 50 million and 2 million alpacas I would do what ever it took to get him back and if not don’t go forward with the movie but that’s not who Disney is they ruin franchise’s
I am done with Pirates. I don’t believe they should have fired Johnny Depp, innocent till proven guilty remember. However,I like the Rock,I don’t like Disney. I stopped watchinh them ,cancelled their channel when they became so family unfriendly. I’ll leave it at that. My advice to the Rock, get awat from Disney. As with AH,fans can turn away from you. Your good but no Johnny Depp,Honey.
Comments for Dwayne Johnson Will Replace Johnny Depp in ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ Film, Reports Say
Tina
Also if I like Dwayne Johnson, I am done with ‘Pirates of the Caribbean”. It started to get boring anyway, a highlight was Johnny Depp, but now it’s over. Rest in peace.
Woooooooozee
Right with you there. Really though? If it was a new player, someone who needed a boost but this guy just jumped the shark for me. Was done with Disney before Johnny. Let’s see what Johnny’s doing next.
Matt
Just let this franchise die with some damn dignity. You’re milking a dead cow at this point.
Diane S
Pirates without Johnny Depp? No thank you I pass.
BBessa
Without Johnny Depp there is no Pirates of the Caribbean period. He made that franchie what it became. I do love Dawyne Johnson but not in this, even some of the roles Disney put him in didn’t fit him. Looks like Disney has lost the magic and just out for the money.
Linda
NO ONE OWNS JACK SPARROW…BUT JOHNNY DEPP!
🏴☠️🦜
Nylah
I AGREE WITH THAT!!!!!
Cordelia Evans
There is no pirates without Johnny so let it go!!!!
Michelle
Shame on Disney. Absolutely despicable.
Dana
NO WAY ! JOHNNY MADE CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW FROM THE GROUND UP AND FOR DISNEY TO THINK ITS OKAY WITH SOMEONE ELES OH HELL NO
Deadpooly
Nobody gives a flying f*** who they replace Depp with. Captain Jack Sparrow WAS that franchise, and Disney just threw him off the plank!
James C
The franchise died a long time ago. It’s time to let a dead dog lie
Roger Fernández
I’m going to give my opinion. If Jonny Deep had not created Jack Sparrow, the franchise would not have been successful. He is an essential piece in the saga. Now, without him, I do not think it will be the same. He is a character that gives that magical touch that no one can replace. In fact, without Jack Sparrow, he would not have been born. my character “James Albert Sparrow Parrott” but better known as James Parrott or J’S Parrott based on him and taking a bit of others like Captain Flint, Barbossa, Black Beard or Teach as it’s really called good of all a bit but the basic is Jack’s I think Dwane Johnson would not fit the role is a formidable actor but Deep is the only one.
Karen
I totally agree.
I love the rock but without Johnny Depp, there is no Pirates of the Caribbean
GrammyP
I too agree! Without Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow, the film will not be one I will watch.
Johnny Depp MADE Jack Sparrow!!!
Jenn
HELL NO!!! I’m sorry it’s not that I don’t like the rock as an actor, he is NOT Jack Sparrow!! Just let Pirates be done
Rose
Without Johnny, it would not be the same. And if Disney continues to use Johnny’s likeness in merch, the ride, etc, will he get royalties? Can he sue them if they don’t compensate him?
SS
Exactly. J. Depp is Jack Sparrow, Pirate, one & only. Period.
IRENE
I agree, I like the Rock, but he is no Jack Sparrow, no one can take Johnny Depp’s place!!!!
Tyndra
If Johnny Depp is replaced am done with the Private Franchise! Depp owns this role and can’t be replaced
Harry Makongwa
Hello No,Pirates of Caribbean Franchise has been alive because of John Depp,The Rock is great actor as well but no on this franchise ,when Disney end working with John Depp we don’t expect them to be selling any stuffs related to John Depp or use his name or picture in any of their work otherwise they will be sued ,as fans we don’t want to see the franchise die that way Disney want simply by using his personal life problems ( which still pit him in stress ) we expected Disney to be on his side since day 1 of case even helping with legal support but they didn’t…Shame on you Disney
Vita
I admire Johnny Deep 🤩but I love Dwayne Johnson, 🥰He is the best, the # 1, Great decision 😊
cookies
i same love dwayne johnson but in my opinion jjack sparow isnt jack sparow without JD ,and i think they made a bad decision in replaceig him with dwayne
Deb
Everybody loves Dwayne Johnson he is an amazing actor but he has no jack sparrow. Nobody can replace Johnny Depp the show is ruined and nobody’s going to watch it. They are going to lose millions
Tcbm1967@gmail.com
I so agree
Bob Chafin
It’s Disney who Depp fans and anyone turned off by their pplitical correct woke culture are boycotting, not the actors they choose to replace him with. People are done with Disney!
Christal
NO! PLEASE ANYBODY BUT THE ROCK!!!!!!
Cavel
Without Johnny they might as well throw out the whole thing cuz he was the only reason most ppl watched anyway. Taking him out was your worst mistake mister producer man.
SS
Nobody’s boycotting Disney, except Haters,
SS
Nobody’s boycotting Disney, maybe some Haters.👿
Debbie
I like the Rock but it’s WRONG not to use Johnny. That won’t even look right without the REAL Jack Sparrow. If she never did that childish writeup this would never happened. Not his fault. I won’t watch the movie without Johnny.
Janny
Love the Rock but he is NOT a Capt Jack Sparrow kind of guy. (Dang… he is everywhere & I’m kind of tired with him. It’s like having Frozen everywhere!) If Rock was being hired as the ‘bad guy,’ it would make Pirates a little more interesting. There is NO Pirates franchise withOUT JOHNNY DEPP!!!
Mary Ann
Boycott all Disney pirate movies. All Johnny Depp fans could refuse to attend on principal and send the strongest, loudest message to the Disney corporation!
Jhdy
If jonny depp isn’t captain Jack sparrow i won’t watch it
Jackie
Im with u on that!! 100%
SS
Agree 100%
Gail
I love Dwayne Johnson, but Pirates of the Caribbean is Johnny and no other! I won’t be watching if it’s not Johnny❤
Billie
Without Johnny Depp there is no Pirates of the Caribbean. Yet Disney is still making a profit off of Jack Sparrow memorabilia, toys, clothing items etc. Shame on Disney! I will boycott every Disney show/movie there is or will be.
Natoshia
Love the Rock….but no. Johnny or bust…. the girl too….
Dawn
Agree 💯!! Won’t be watching if JD isn’t in it.
Tigris
No Johnny no pirates
Gigi
Very true ill be DONE TO BRING BACK THE HOT BABE NAME JOHNNY DEPP 🙏 …
YOUR RATINGS WILL FOR SURE GO DOWN DOWN DOWN DOWN 👎
BRING JOHNNY YOULL MAKE MILLIONS TRILLIONS IN THE BOX OFFICE THAT IS FORSURE!!!!! GIGI
Becky
I agree!! The studio is making a huge mistake. Johnny should remain in the movie!!!
Annemie volders
Rock is goed maar Johnny Depp is vele beter als ze samen mogen spelen is het super leuk
Deborah Silva
I love the Rock, but he is not Johnny Depp. Johnny brings Jack Sparrow to life as I believe no other actor could. All of the characters he has portrayed, have been unique and it is only because of the dedication he put into the role.
Tina
Love Dwayne Johnson. But without Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow thank you I will pass! About to just completely boycott any Disney.
Heidi
I agree. I have nothing against Dwayne Johnson but he is no Johnny Depp or Jack Sparrow. I will never watch another pirates of the Caribbean again unless it’s the old ones with Johnny Depp. Rest In Peace Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) you can’t ever be replaced.
SS
Bring back Johnny Depp!!
Lore' B.
As much as I love watching Dwayne and admire his acting career…replacing a well known character with a different actor is always a bad idea, unless you are just doing local melodramas each year. I write and direct local theatrical dance shows and the audience emotionally bonds with certain actors that perform in the shows. If you switch them out even when there may be just a slight difference between the 2 actors….you will start to lose your audience and their loyalty for future shows or sequels. It’s like replacing Steve Perry from “Journey” with another vocalist that sounds just like him. (Like they did)… and it never worked in the long run. Leave it be, if you are not bringing back Johnny…..or try to create another character, even if you have to have Dwayne be Jack’s Sparrow’s long lost brother or cousin. Otherwise you will damage the character’s image of what Johnny brought to the table by playing Jack Sparrow.
Spencervix
I liked Dwayne Johnson but he’s no Captain Jack Sparrow! That character will forever be synonymous with Johnny Depp and him alone. Disney needs to understand you can’t replace a character created from someone’s heart.
Linda
No, Pirates of Caribbean just isn’t the same, the only reason people went to see was johnny depp, he made those movies because of the surprises and laughter he brought! I won’t do Disney anymore, evidently Johnny Depps fans never left him under the accusations he faced, and Disney charged hom guilty
Amber
I like Dwayne but I support Will and Johnny and starting to get sick of the crap. Will was protecting his wife and back in the day it would have been appreciated now it’s wrong. As for Johnny Amber is just ridiculous and how any one can believe the manipulative wench I will never know.
Christine
Jack Sparrow is Johnny Depp..!! The Rock nor any other actor could ever compare to Johnny’s personality, his carisma, nor his Heart and Soul that he puts into Capt. Jack Sparrow!! No Johnny, No Pirates of the Caribbean..!!
Debbie Williams
Only Depp can do Capt. Jack. Bring him back. Not saying Johnson can’t play a role of some sort. Depp is an actor that can play any role. He’s a performer.
Janet Henderson
NO one can replace Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow. Disney made a HUGE mistake cutting Johnny out of the franchise. Shame on you Disney. Same with WB. Huge mistake.
Dee Dee
I agree totally Johnny makes the movie, Wake up Disney…No Johnny No movie! It would be a huge waste of time and money, nobody wants to see it without him!! Just bring him back
Dee
I agree, there is no Pirates without Johnny, even though I like Dwayne I can’t see him replacing Johnny in this role it just won’t be the same
Cathi
I agree. Disney has gone down hill in my eyes in many ways. I like Dwane, but pirates movies are all about Jonny Depp! No Jonny Depp? Disney looses my vote!! Big mistake.
Brandy dodson
If johnny depp is not in I will not watch it rip jack sparrow
Randy
No Johnny Depp, no pirates, no watch
Franny
I like Dwayne. But no one can replace Johnny Depp. They should just cancel the movie if they won’t bring Depp back
Emanuel
Very true. No Depp, pirates is trash
Vernesta Christopher
I’m totally with you on that! Depp is the ONLY Jack Sparrow any of us want to see, NOT the Rock! He’s good just where he is in FAST & FURIOUS franchise and Jumanji, so those STUPID PRODUCERS are all gonna EAT CROW when they see the empty movie theaters, because no one is going to go! PLEASE STOP TRYING TO REPLACE ACTORS WHO ARE LOVED BY one that doesn’t fit the part! But ya’ll gonna LOSE TONS OF MONEY!!🤣🤣
Ck
Jumamji ONLY belonged to Robin Williams! (RIP) Shameful to me is that a continuation J II was done and Dwanye being made the lead character 😢 I like Dwayne but lets face it he really is not the comedic type of actor!The family movies he’s been in has always had to have a funny actor that really makes the movie!
Dr. Manny
Dwayne Johnson is a mediocre actor at best. He has one lane action hero and that is about it.
The pirate franchise had multiple powerhouse actors including Orlando Bloom. Dwayne Johnson is not at that level and might never be unless he breaks out of that stereotypical role.
Start a new with the franchise and hand the reigns to someone else and please before you interject the word “woke” into every conversation do some research. Pirates were actually more democratic than most governments of their time, not to mention “woke” in their pursuit of creating an even playing field by stealing from the rich and distributing the plunder amongst those who risked and labored for it.
Mario
The character Captain Jack sparrow portrayed by Johnny Depp is so iconic you can’t replace that character in that Franchise. If Depp is not in it neither am I.
Gloria
Disney can do whatever the hell they want but the people will not pay to see any more of your pirate movies, you f____up!
Carolyn
. No Johnny no pirates. As far as the Rock goes o almost feel like he’s crossing the picket line!
Terri
Only Johnny can be Captain Jack!!
Palermo
That’s what happens when you’re Disney, you make rash decision and listen to your audience only after you almost ruined a franchise.
Unfortunately, this time they won’t be able to save it.
Mike
It specifically said the Rock would not be Jack Sparrow but another character. Maybe Jack will self identity as a woman and become Margot Robbie. A woke move that I could easily see Disney making. Capt Jacqueline Bird of Prey.
Sevroc
Dwayne can’t act his way out of a paper bag he literally plays a version of himself in every damn role
No Depp
No franchise
Woooooooozee
Such a robot homo move!
Mike
It specifically said the Rock would not be Jack Sparrow but another character. Maybe Jack will self identity as a woman and become Margot Robbie. A woke move that I could easily see Disney making. Capt Jacqueline Bird of Prey.
Joel
Don’t go with the norm,,, use Johnny Depp despite what’s happened,, people want him as Cpt Jack,,, he defined the crazy pirate.
Peggy
Not watching if no Johnny.
Peggy
Not watching if no Johnny. Disney made all that money and still making money off Johnny. Shame on you disney for turning your back.
Robyn
Nope I won’t watch it if Johnny Depp isn’t jack Sparrow. You all might as well kill the franchise
Jen
I’m not watching any Pirates of the Caribbean without Johnny Depp.
Betty O.
No Johnny Depp, no Pirates of the Caribbean. Period. Disney can pound sand. Dwayne Johnson would be smart to avoid acting in a movie that will bomb.
Tim Harms
Tim in San Francisco no one can play Captain Jack Sparrow a size Johnny Depp it would be Disney’s worst mistake they ever made if they cast Dwayne Johnson as the captain
Martha Black
No Johnny Depp‽
No Capt Jack Sparrow‽
NO PIRATES OF THE CARRIBEAN!!!!
FINITO!!!!!
Karen
Ughhhhh, poor choice.
Pirates will never be the same without Johnny.
Will not be watching it. 1-5 Pirates only.
Sean
Only johnny
Casey Snyder
Nobody can replace Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow character we want to Johnny Depp back
Sean
No jhonson, no musky crookied di#k Elon!! Only Depp!! Disany shall crumble!! Only the imfomus CAPTIAN JACK SPARROW should Triumph!
Douglas
Johnny Depp is clearly the one and only Jack Sparrow. If his manager smart Johnny Depp’s manager will find him another movie house and create a whole new character. His fans will follow him they will follow him to the face of the Earth. This trial will be over soon and he can get back to what he does best. It is the big screen. Doesn’t have to be Jack Sparrow it can be another pirate of the sea. I’m already lining up to buy tickets for his new film whatever it is.
Amy
No Johnny Depp? No wayi will watch this movie! Everything that the Rock gets cast in, gets cheesey immediately-& not in a good way. Captain Jack Sparrow 💙 4-ever
Lou
Disney will regret this decision. They just don’t get it. Depp created the best portrayal of Jack Sparrow. No one can replace him..from what I have seen, no one will accept anyone but Depp. Fools at Disney will create a massive flop!!
Joe
No Johnny No watch. Not another dime from me Disney. Yer on my shat list of we woke companies.
Jessica Allen
No way can anyone replace Johnny Depp and I will not waste my money to go see the next pirates movie without him.
Paula
Nope, not gonna work.
Angie
Just like Fast and Furious without Paul Walker, pirates will not be the same without Johnny. I will not be watching anymore.
#loveyoujohnny ❤
Dee
Nobody can play Jack Sparrow but Johnny Depp, everyone knows that. Deep made Pirates of the Caribbean what it is, without Deep, it will not be good. I don’t care to watch it without Johnny in it.
Dee
Meant to type Depp not Deep,
ZERRIN
I like dwayne, but Jonny is the best in this film. I love the film. no one can act like jonny as jack sparrow. So for me no new pirates film! And i think it will a bad movie without him. My little boys love jack sparrow to. The grow up with this films
Bulleti
Bad choice. We want jonny!!!
Terry
Disney, what the hell are you thinking? The Rock? No way .
Karen Henderson
I don’t care who you get, Sparrow is not Jack Sparrow without Johnny Depp..I will NOT watch. Disney is sending mixed messages..they support sonme extreme, contiversial thing or 2, but won’t give a 2nd chance to Johnny Depp? And he’s being ragged on by his ex. Who knows what is truth? Let sleeping dogs lue..let Johnny Depp be Jack Sparrow. This us all UTTERLY ridiculous!!
Janie
No Johnny no watching see how much this one makes Disney!
Milo Graves
Why Disney would even think that keeping “Pirates” going without J. Depp is a purely idiotic and stupid idea..He made the franchise the success it has become…100% will not watch the train wreck that would ensue if this movie actually is made and released.Period!!!
Martine
No one but JD can play Jack Sparrow, but here’s it’s talk about new characters getting spin-offs, which I think is fine. I do believe JD should get some cameos, though, as that would keep the thread in the series.
junger chen
no depp……no more pirates ….johnson cannot act pirates
Jenna
No johnny no jack your movie will fail as if any one will watch this joke of a movie directors just wrote pirates of the Caribbean Johnny made the Pirate of the Caribbean what it is today to replace them with the rock a wrestler come on give him better credit than that if you’re going to replace him don’t get me wrong the rock is a good actor but not for Jack Sparrow as if muscles like that for a captain come on people pick a better dude but as I said the movie will fail at the box office Dwayne Johnson Johnny is Captain Jack Sparrow thee END
Darren
I like Dwayne J. But cmon man do you think you can parade a big name out there and assume everything will be alright. Johnny made that character and that made the movies along with a great script. Dwayne don’t do it, you need to do a cool role like Predators, mission impossible or Jaws.
Rebecca Roberts
If Johnny can’t be Jack Sparrow, then I won’t be watching no more Pirate movies or disney…PERIOD!!!
Wayne Neely
No Johnny Depp no pirates of the Caribbean and I definitely won’t be watching it!
Derrick
No Depp then just Stop making them they will never be the same he made jack sparrow Character what it is no one else can do the same making somebody else that character it’s just worng And disappointing
Ferretkingdom
Nothing wrong with Dwayne Johnson, but he isn’t Captain Jack Sparrow. He can’t replace Johnny Depp. A Pirates of the Caribbean movie wouldn’t be the same without Depp and I wouldn’t bother to watch it
LA Lawrence
The roc is ok, But “Johnny Dept is The Only Captain Jack Sparrow”, if he’s Not in it, I won’t be watching…
Kriss
If Johnny is not in pirates, I’ll never watch it! Envelope when it comes to tv for free. The Rock is a horrible idea. 👎🏻
Nancy
I fully agree and support you. I will never watch any Pirates film without Johnny Depp
Kriss
I meant even when , not envelopes but it won’t let me edit.
Nancy
With all due respect to the Rock, He is NOT the Cure for what ails The Pirates franchise. I’m sorry but if you don’t get Johnny Depp back in his rightful role as Captain Jack then NONE of us will watch any Pirates movie without him!
BRING JOHNNY DEPP BACK NOW!
Kriss
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Christine
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Fran Jenkins
The Rock needs to chill and just say No! He doesn’t need to interject himself into any other franchise. POTC needs to go away forever. It’s on DVD and streaming wherever it’s streaming.
Rebecca
So true don’t step on his toes.
JanH
Disney will lose millions if they try to reboot Pirates without Depp. No Margot Robbie or Dwayne Johnson will work. Whoever heard of a muscle-bound pirate? Just not realistic. No women would have ever been a pirate along side men back in those days. Disney is so woke, they will never admit they made a huge mistake dumping Depp.
Captn Jack
Look up Anne Bonny. I agree with No Depp, no Pirates!
Vicki
Sorry…I can’t see The Rock as a Pirate! Depp looks like a pirate in real life! Not a big fan of his except as Jack Sparrow.
I can see Rock as THE Genie however!
Not my pirates
Better change the name to a great movie that now is a waste of money. No Depp no pirates no one will watch this. No thanks I’ll pass.
Cindy
Love The Rock, but he’s no Capt. Jack Sparrow. There’s only one Capt. Jack – Johnny Depp.
Lighten up francis
He won’t play jack sparrow, but I agree, depp makes the pirate movies what it is. Also the lead character is now going to a female role, Margot Robbie…. A completely different turn of events. They are rewriting history. I don’t recall pirates being led by women (and yes I am a girl… this has nothing to do with being down on women so no need to get your panties in a bunch folks). I just think this is getting a bit crazy…. Maybe it’s time to, as the Queen Elsa would sing, “let it go”, and retire the pirates saga while you are ahead before you sink it.
Captn Jack
Look up Anne Bonny. I agree with No Depp, no Pirates!
Lighten up Francis
Thank you for the insight, I hadn’t heard of the Irish pirate. And it is nice to see this, but I still feel Disney needs to stop trying to change the story line, and let it go. If they aren’t going to continue with Depp…. And Jack Sparrow (who is the lead in this story) then come up with something new.
But again, thank you for the education. I’m not knocking it in at all. I know there are female pirates (I don’t live under a rock)…. Women can and have done just about everything they set their minds to do. Disney needs new material.
Ron
You kill it ruthlessly by trying to replace the unreplaceable charactet or you let it die peacefully at the bottom of the sea….or give us back our Jack Spsrrow
Bea
They just need to cancel the movie. This will not be same without Johnny Depp. I love Dwayne, but he has limited acting skills the eyebrow thing well that’s over done. Need to sign a petition to get Johnny back!
Cathy
Dwayne Johnson as Jack Sparrow? I don’t think so. Only one actor can play that role and that’s Johnny Depp. As for me, I’m done with ANYTHING that has to do with Disney, they are making a BIG mistake
Nodisneyfan
No Johnny/no pirate. No watching.
Marcus
No way let it fade to black be gone Depp was it
Captn Jack
Look up Anne Bonny. I agree with No Depp, no Pirates!
Thumper 1
Another family here? No Depp, no Pirates! But Disney stopped listening to its patrons long ago!
Pam
I’m looking forward to seeing what new projects Johnny will play in. The past is just that the past and there will never be another Jack Sparrow
Depp all the way
Agreed
Mary
Nope, nada! Like him, but NO
J_dubblu
Well looks like I won’t be watching that trash. I love Depp. My favorite is Secrete Window. Take him out no1 is going to watch it
Diane Schildknecht
As much as I like Dwayne Johnson, this is a bad move as he could never replace Johnny Depp who made that role a classic! I won’t be watching it either unfortunately…
Cavel
How does the rock fit in here? Can someone tell me cuz I just don’t see it. #NoDeppNoPOTC
jd Burns
No Thanx
The Rock, Booo! decent in Jumanji. Ok in Moana, he will destroy Pirates and Aladin. Not funny just a big oaf! always playin tuff Guy! Pfft!
Jane A Gallup
Well I’m guessing after this is released and Disney takes a huge $ loss, and they will. This will be the last Pirates movie. The Rock? Wow terrible choice Disney!
Marie
No Depp, no money for tickets, no visits to Disney. Disney assumes we are sheep and will forget and follow. No, we have other choices.
Cindy
Johnny has that quirky humor, that only he possess, he keeps it entertaining and light. Without Johnny the movie will be boring.
McLeod
I love The Rock but it don’t matter, PotC without Depp isn’t PotC and I won’t be seeing it without him.
Solange Bertapeli
Sorry but Johnny Depp is irreplacable! I love Rock but talent like johnny Depp I think few
actors can be compared.
Cathy
Totally agree
Doesn't take much thought
Since when do DC movies rival Marvel offerings?
The author obviously hasn’t a clue.
Cathy
There will only ever by one Capt Jack Sparrow. Johnny Depp.
Disney should bring him back.
Cathy
I HATE Disney…..Johnny Depp and Pirates go together.
Only Him, can play the part as Jack Sparrow.
Get it??? No replacements, I don’t watch either if you do.
nick
no one can replace depp in that role. without him jack sparrow is done..
GJV
While I like DeWayne Johnson … he is no Johnny Depp ~ Captain Jack Sparrow.
LM
I’m sorry but I like Dwayne Johnson but no one is going to do like Johnny Depp He’s always going to be Jack Sparrow And if hes not Jack Sparrow I’m done.
Leslie Brown
So if not Depp don’t put Capt Jack in the movies what will Pirates be with out Capt Jack.
Hawkcam
Just let the franchise die. It’s not Pirates of the Caribbean without Johnny Depp’s Jack Sparrow. No one can replace him.
Ellen Lawson
Johnny Depp is OVER. DISNEY makes good decisions.
Sean
WTF you just killed the film the rock is no Jack Sparrow why are you even making this movie it’s dead you killed it Pirets Of The Caribbean is now dead you can’t just change the person playing the main part everyone knows Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow so yep movie franchise is dead
CRT
This is wrong. Johnny Depp has not been given an adequate opportunity to defend his reputation. Johnny Depp is the Pirates franchise anyway. Without him, I am through with this franchise.
Danny
Like the Rock but getting a little tired of seeing him. Need to get some rest. As for Johnny Depp there’s No One that can replace him. He is Captain Jack Sparrow and He is the Pirates of the Caribbean….without Captain Jack Sparrow the show is Dead. As for Disney itself I will not watch anything they make. I’ve taken it out my TV programs….

Although I like Dwayne Johnson, to me you cannot change the person who plays the main character. On a side note I have to say farewell to Disney, there are many reasons why and I don’t need to politically get into them today. But this was just the nail in the coffin!! Shame on the Disney corporation, I hope that repercussions well allow them to feel even a quarter of what they put Mr Depp hrough!!

Sorry for the misspellings, I dictated this comment, clearly I did not spell check 😳

NO WAY IN HELL WILL I EVER WATCH A DISNEY MOVIE AGAIN

Gale

James
That’s total garbage. NO ONE CAN PLAY JACK SPARROW EXCEPT JOHNNY DEPP!!!!!!!!!!!
Mildred
Im sorry but Im sticking with everybody here. There is no Pirates of the Caribbean with the Capt. Jack Sparrow Johnny Depp. I will save my money and watch tv instead.
Mildred
Burt Turner
Iff the rock does pirates he’ll probably be a different character. He’s got more class than that. Johnny will be a great actor no matter what and he’ll survive no matter what some foolish movie executives think.
Gary Sandoval
Just like everything Disney touches regarding a sequel they will kill it and destroy it terrible .Way to go Disney Dwayne Johnson I don’t think so Captain Jack on steroids I don’t think so. Killing Star wars wasn’t bad enough now pirates of the Caribbean fu#k you Disney and you’re overpriced overrated Park
Yoda
Amen
Teresa
This has to be a joke. There is no way this will work.
Disney you have made a horrible mistake with this. Johnny Depp made you MILLIONS and you turn your back on him? Well I will never see it.
Cecilia
If Depp does not return to the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, Disney has lost a fan. Idiotic move letting him go because of a lying has been.
Tina J.
I LOVE DWAYNE JOHNSON, but HE CANNOT PULL THIS PART OFF. No way, no how! Johnnie MADE THAT PART WHAT IT IS. After all the money Depp made for Disney, it’s an awful shame they abandoned him with NO REAL PROOF OF DOING ANYTHING WRONG! Disney and Rollins should be ashamed of themselves. BRING BACK JOHNNIE DEPP!!!!! WE LOVE AND ADORE HIM!!!
Sally
Will NOT watch without Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow . Disney really messed up!!!!!!
Thom
When does filming begin?
Maybe Dwayne can get some acting lessons before.
Andy
Bombs away
Patrick Esmundo
If i was The Rock, i would turn it down for several reasons.
1. To support a “wronged” person
2. Because he should understand that while he is an exceptional talent himself, Johnny Depp has created a Jack Sparrow that is uniquely loved and CANNOT be replaced by anyone. It would be wiser to KILL the character and create a new one, with the hopes that this new character will CLICK with the viewers, but thats highly improbable, knowing how DISNEY management treated Johnny Depp situation, then seeing via the trial how Johnny was wronged by Amber.
3. This would be a huge gamble for The Rock because he has already created his own brand of greatness and does NOT need to prove himself. Taking this role may jeopardize that brand.
Lets say, he succeeds in portraying a good Jack Sparrow is that going to build on his legend? Not necessarily…but if he fails…this would adversely affect what he has built. It would look like he is after the money…which he has a lot of and which he can make by continually building on his own brand. So RISK-REWARD ration is not wise.
Rich
OMG! I’m so sick of the The Rock!!!
Rhoda
Now that Disney has lost all common sense, and going to put The Rock in as Capt. Jack. I have no desire to watch another Pirates of the Caribbean movie. Johnny Depp made that character, and was that character. Good luck making your money back,Disney!
Leonarda Lawes
You ppl should be embarrassed. To have an opinion you need to understand the subject matter! 90% of these comments are extremely uninformed. Jack is NOT being replaced, just wrongfully eliminated altogether. Can’t wait to watch this failure play out. No Depp, no POTC. PIRATES w/ as “S”, yes there can be others, but fans are fed up and unforgiving. Disney is done if they keep on current path…. #therealawoken is we the ppl.
S. Benavente
I’ve decided awhile ago I no longer support Disney. JD situation is just the icing on the cake.
Carrie
I will not be watching no one can replace Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow
Lu
I like the Rock but no….. I will not watch him if he replaces Johnny!!!!
Genie
I love the rock whole heartedly but rock cannot be any jack sparrow no wouldn’t work. Just leave it alone please.
DENIS COLOMB
Absolutely stupid idea
Mike
I too will stop watching the Pirate movies if they get rid of Johnny Depp.. I have decided to not watch the movies that Will Smith was fired from as well. One thing has nothing to do with the other. This world is going crazy….
Robin Bivens
Oh I hate to see this. I really hope it doesn’t destroy your career. Your an excellent actor. I for one will not ever see another Pirates of the Caribbean again after what they did to Johnny Depp.
Keshia
I looovvee the Rock but I do not want this
KB
I like the Rock but the movie just won’t be the same. Johnny Depp is Jack Sparrow.
Lyndal
Nothing against The Rock but it won’t be the same
M
The movie will NEVER be the same, without Johnny Depp as Jack sparrow.
Hunter
Well I guess Disney likes to kill perfectly good franchises, The Rock is not even a relative replacement for Johnny Depp personally if Depp wins his case Disney should reinstate his role as Jack Sparrow. Disney is going in the wrong direction in so many ways right now, they need to rethink who is running the company.
Marie
This has to be a joke right??? Dwayne is too comical looking for this part. Everytime i see him i think of other movies he has been in leaning way toward a childrens audience. His body type, facial expressions, and EVERYTHING will be so off. Two thumbs down for me!! I wouldnt even watch it once it came free on satellite. Johnny will always be the ONLY Jack Sparrow!!

Dwayne is a very good actor but to take Johnny Depp place as Jack Sparrow you got to be kidding. Why are u doing this … Everyone gets divorces everyday . No Johnny Depp no buy movie. I have them all too.
Bekki
This is unacceptable! He’s the worst actor to play Captain Jack, now I’m done with the Pirates and The Rock, no more of his movies for me!!
Yoda
Hell No!
Ahu
Pass.
Darrell Murrey
I WILL NOT WATCH A Pirates of the Caribbean without johnny Depp
Mina
Oh, ick. That’s a pass for me
He’s not half the actor Depp is. DJ A totally overrated star.
Cliff
If johnny Depp not in the pirate film in future films I won’t pay to see it or watch it in any way I think Disney owes johnny this is his role.!!!!
Wood
If johnny Depp not in the pirate film in future films I won’t pay to see it or watch it in any way I think Disney owes johnny this is his role.!!!!
Debbie
Only Johnny Depp can be Jack Sparrow. HE is Jack Sparrow. It doesn’t matter how many actor have played James Bond. None made the impact of the James Bond character like Johnny Depp has as Jack Sparrow. He put his own twist on the character and personalized it in a way that no other actor can. Disney screwed up and showed their true loyalty and colors by dropping Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow. I will never support another actor as Jack Sparrow. EVER!
Shirley
no waaaay!!! That is the stupidest idea !!!! bring back Johnny!!
Don
I won’t be seeing this. Matter of fact. I can’t wait to miss it.
Collin
I love the Rock but i would lose all respect if he takes the roll. I ask to let this one go Rock
Deb
A. Completely. Slap in. The face for. Johnny. Depp you. Watched a. Amber heard who is. A. Dis grace to all woman a. Liar. I. Feel. Terrible. For. Mr Depp and. Hope the. People. Boycott. Disney
Angie Hindke
Ok, O love the Rock. But absolutely NO. Captain Jack IS the Pirates franchise. Please keep Johnny…..PLEASE
Ricardo santos
Nonsense, are you high? There is no way Dwayne would be able to replace Johnny at Pirates. Simple as that.
I love the rock, but this is not a role he could play, it is not a role for him at ALL.
Lorrie
YUCK…never saw anything in him. Not even close to the talent and good looks of Johnny Depp. Very bad choice…but Disney is screwing everything up…why not this.
Judi B
No Jonny no watchy
Joe Blow
Disney sure knows how to screw something up. Dwayne Johnson lacks the talent that Johnny Depp has to play Jack Sparrow. But on the other hand pit a talentless actor into a dying franchise. Seems aboit right for Disney.
Darlene King
No one can play Captain Jack but Johnny Depp. I love Dwayne Johnson however. I just think Disney to let the story die, they have already buried the main charactor!!
Lynn
Nothing against Dwayne but that’s a no for me. Only ONE person will or can ever be Cpt Jack Sparrow. Oh yeah, and Ef AH. Disney, you blew it.
Jennifer's Dream
There is no Pirates of the Caribbean without Johnny Depp. I will never watch one that doesn’t have him in it. Disney should never have turned their back on him without evidence especially when they knew him so well.
Danaka
Disney has nailed their coffin with me. First they’ve messed up with their woke joke political stance. Now. No Johnny Depp?! Sorry, I love Dwayne Johnson, but, neither I, nor my children or grandchildren will be watching any new Pirates film–or-anything else from Disney. I’m totally done.
Josephine Pinzel
NO JOHNNY DEPP NOT GOING TO SEE ANY OF IT.
Jackie
Not going to lie I do like the rock Dwayne Johnson as an actor but I think Johnny Depp should get that spot back it should have never been taken from him and to be honest I’m not interested in seeing The Rock Dwayne Johnson playing Jack Sparrow! After this Johnny Depp trial and so many people know the truth that Amber was the abusive one there’s going to be Millions who will not watch any more Pirates of the Caribbean movies if Johnny Depp isn’t Jack sparrow! Disney really did make a big mistake with how they treated Johnny because of Amber turd… smfh.. Disney you need to fix this!! NOWWW!!!
Bfly
Now I love the rock but no absolutely not Johnny Depp should be the only person playing Captain Jack sparrow!
Phyllis Owens
There is only one Jack Sparrow, but Jason Momoa would be awesome!!!
Barry
Dwayne Johnson is a sold his soul to China! No respect for him. It’s all about the money!
Jen
There is no Pirates of the Caribbean without Captain Jack Sparrow and there’s no Captain Jack Sparrow without Johnng Depp. I hope Disney loses their tush on this. Serves them right for dropping someone whose made them BILLIONS based on an unproven accusation.
Barry
Dwayne Johnson is a sold his soul to China! Fk, the Rock!
Bonita Voorhees
Disney, I want to love you, but you finger is not on the pulse.
Diana
Pirates franchise will never be the same with Depp. I won’t watch it anymore.
Latoya Mitchell
I can’t see no other person to play this role besides JD. I like the rock, but it want be as interesting….. JD owns the role…… irreplaceable
May Brooks
Johnny Depp CREATED Captain Jack Sparrow. No Johnny, no POTC or FB.
#JusticeForJohnnyDepp
Debbie
So glad I bought all the movies with Johnny Jack Sparrow…I Will Not spend a single dollar if he is booted out.
Ali
Please not change Johnny Depp in pirates of carribian IS good character
Diana
Don’t get me wrong I love “The Rock” but no Johnny no movie!! I have been a big Disney collector for 28 years, now all I can say is Disney can go screw them self. They totally messed up not waiting to hear this mess all the way through. You go Johnny we are all behind yo!!
R Knighton
Pirates of the Caribbean will not be the same without Johnny Depp. I like the Rock, he just doesn’t belong replacing Johnny. Let the series end on a good ride
Rena
It will not be any good without Johnny Depp. He made that character his own. I will not be watching.
Sandra
Nope Depp was and still would be the reason I would watch it. Nobody can replace him.
Chris
The Rock is one of my favorite actors, but I will pass on a Pirates movie without the Jack Sparrow. Due process is a fountain of our justice system.
Chris
*foundation (dam you spellcheck!)
Steve Holt
Sorry, there’s only ONE Jack Sparrow. There’s no replacing Johnny Depp. Disney is a joke now anyway. They don’t deserve him.
Maljay
There is no pirates of the Caribbean with out Jack sparrow even though the rock I my boy but without Johnny it won’t be right
Connie
Hello they is only ONE Johnny Depp!! I love Dwayne in everything but he can not and will never take Johnny Depp part.
Kristi Louie
No Johnny Depp, no Jack Sparrow.
No Jack Sparrow no Pirates of the Caribbean.
It’s dead.
Patricia Zabala
I did like Duane Johnson but I honestly think he’s fake n woke. I know this sounds stupid but I wish no one would have taken the role. He got screwed and then Duane just steps in. Cuz he doesn’t have enough money as it is. I said I know it sounds stupid its just 5 films and all had Johnny then was going to do 6th until the ex wrote her story. Whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty? They just dumped him. Pirates of the Caribbean is Johnny, Orlando bloom. So then it should end. And Amber Heard should have to spent least 30 dsys in jail watching what real DV women have gone through..My rant is over
Rebecca
That is wrong of The Rock no class,if he takes the role I will not watch his movies if he takes Johhny Depp role.
Kim
I love the Rock he’s a great actor but Johnny Depp is Captain Jack. He makes the character and makes the movies he’s in better!
Kelli
Their is only one Jack Sparrow. Without him pirates of the Caribbean is finished, and so is Disney.
Jenny
No Johnny Depp no movie .
Dylan
Dwayne Johnson of all people? He can’t act at all. All of his characters are exactly the same with a few minor differences sprinkled in here and there. If they do this there will be massive backlash, and wind up being DOA.
Sherri Putnam
I watched Pirates of the Caribbean because Depp made it worthwhile, No Depp… Not watching. Changing the Actors is like trying to replace Paul Walker. Or trying to find a replacement for The Black Panther … There is only one person who could play him and may he Rest in Peace. Now y’all go ahead but The Rock will never make it as Capt. Jack Sparrow. Depp somehow blends into the Character….
Sherry
Dwayne is a great actor! But Johnny Depp IS Capt Jack Sparrow! Like saying another star could be Charlie Chaplin – Depp dug deep & made Jack & all the moves Voice, swagger & charm – he owns it & always will -💕💕💕💕💕

Josh
You actually think you can replace Johnny Depp what a shame Disney has become just stop making movies it’s all crap just leave your movies for the little kids
Antonio
If Johnny Depp not acting in this movie. Then I can’t watch it it’s not funny without him, hope they change there mind
Rebecca
So true don’t step on his toes.
Rebecca
Look the Rock is known to play tuff. How do u think he will look on this movie, 🤔 it doesn’t make sense. I’m no producer but, I think this is so foolish. Plus Dwayne my respects to you but you willing to take this lrole is wrong. I understand your trying to build a relationship with Disney,but don’t do it by stepping on toes. That’s wrong Johnny Depp doesn’t deserve this for something he hasn’t done wrong. Disney n Dwayne don’t let money make u ugly. It’s going to backfire. With all do respects. Think smart. Johnny Depp or NO MOVIE PERIOD!!!
Jill Ibel
You dont need Disneys repor. They’ll turn their backs on the rock to. It’s about bottom line for them. One bad rumor and they’ll kick the rock to the curb too. Once they see this movie will flop, make no money for them. Bye, Rock. Just wait!, you’ll see.
MJH
He replaced Brendan Fraser in Journey to the Centre of the Earth 2… Sorry you’ve always been second best. They can find a better pirate than that millionaire in my opinion.
Gayla Rippy
I’m done with Disney. I’ll not watch another movie, will not buy anything with Disney on it, I’ll not go on vacation at Disney Parks, rent rooms at the Disney motels. You betrayed Johnny!!!
Bobby Harris
2 words, please no
Denise
No Johnny? Ok, No Pirates, and as soon as my yearly subscription is up, I’ll be cancelling Disney!!!
Gabriella C
Sounds like a really bad joke. Having Dwayne Johnson enter the film isn’t going to make it better. Johnny Depp is the highlight of the Pirate’s franchise. This would just be sad.
Dow Oce
Are they totally stupid? No JD, I hope no-one will watch it.
Soledad
I like the Rock, but him as Jack Sparrow is a bad idea. Johnny has played Jack Sparrow so well for so long to cast someone other than Johnny for the role is unacceptable & disappointing as if firing him before proven guilty wasn’t upsetting enough, now they want to replace him. Good luck with that Disney. He’s irreplaceable. Pirates of the Carribean won’t ever be the same.
Helen Borcherding Hill
Any actor that jumps in on another’s territory especially beloved famous actor that was screwed over by those that should’ve known his true character yet turned their backs on, taking his territory his adventure away just for someone else to take over is another punch to the face. I liked the Rock but now I’m done with his movies. Anyone that can stab a fellow human being in the back knowing he’s innocent should be ashamed of themselves.
Harley
I will be more likely to believe this rumor if the journalist had their facts straight….
Kat Smart
Johnny Depp is Captain Jack Sparrow. Without him it’s not the same. Not interested 😒
steph
Johnny Depp made that franchise a success and without him it just will not be the same. Time for Disney to put the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise out to pasture. Depp will always be Captain Jack Sparrow and replacing him is just cruel and really sad. Justice for Johnny!!!
Hazel
I am not watching this movie I like the Actress but Johnny Depp is Pirates of the Caribbean if Johnny Depp is it in the Pirates of the Caribbean I don’t wanna watch because when you think of pirates of the Caribbean you think of Johnny Depp and Jack sparrow
Hazel
I am not watching this movie I like the Actress but Johnny Depp is Pirates of the Caribbean if Johnny Depp is it in the Pirates of the Caribbean I don’t wanna watch because when you think of pirates of the Caribbean you think of Johnny Depp and Jack sparrow
Patty
Love The Rock, but anyone in that character but Depp is just not right. I will not be spending any money on this film, no disrespect to anyone. Depp developed and nurtured that character and it will always belong to him.
Maria
Johnny Depp IS Pirates of the Caribbean. He cannot be replaced.
Liz
NO JOHNNY DEPP NO PIRATES!! YOUR MAKING A BAD DECISION! YA CAN’T FIX STUPID😬😬😬
Ian
The Rock is a plague of Hollywood. The dude is so narcissistic that he puts it in his contracts that he can’t lose a fight. He’s a fake action hero – just a wannabe Harrison Ford and Arnold. I mean come on – the guy was a pro wrestler, you REALLY think he’s got any acting ability to speak of? It’s unfathomable why this guy continues to get high profile work, but then I remember the low denominator graphic of America and it’s easily explained. Audiences have zero taste in actual film anymore, they just want mindless entertainment, not art. It’s disgusting.
Brenda
I have no respect for Disney anymore and will not watch Pirates without Johnny Depp
Lea
I like Dwayne Johnson but if this is true I will not support it. The disgusting way Disney has Treated Mr. DEPP I will not watch any Disney movie at this point.
Connie
Although I love Dwayne Johnson pirates of the Caribbean could never be the same without Johnny Depp. They can’t have Johnny Depp just don’t make another one.
Aggie
This would be a mistake of epic proportion. For the love of all things holy, just no.
Connie
If this is true the franchise is doomed. I’m not watching it
Mistkl
Disney is ruining everything,
they’re the ones who are gonna lose with their stupid decisions. NO ONE WILL WATCH PIRATES WITHOUT JOHNNY DEPP.
WE WANT JOHNNY!!! WE WANT JOHNNY!!! WE WANT JOHNNY!!! WE WANT JOHNNY!!! WE WANT JOHNNY!!! WE WANT JOHNNY!!! WE WANT JOHNNY!!!
Jill Ibel
“WE WANT JOHNNY!”,”WE WANT JOHNNY!”,”WE WANT JOHNNY!”,”WE WANT JOHNNY!”,”WE WANT JOHNNY!”. I’m right there with you! I can chant this all day. Strongly agree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Justin Bjornstad
If this is true I’m just all respect for Dwayne.. no actor should have even tried taking over this role, secondly.. the rock as a flamboyant pirate? NOOOO FRIGGIN WAY THATLL WORK. I won’t watch any pirates film without Depp as captain jack included
Jill Ibel
Johnny Depp made that Series! No Johnny Depp! No support! I like the Rock. But, not for this! Pirates is dead and buried with out Johnny! For me and my family who’s all in agreement. We will no longer support Pirates films. Bought the set that Johnny’s in. That’s all we’ll ever own.
Gin
I will not be watching any new pirates without Johnny in them. He is capt Jack Sparrow no one else. He made Jack Sparrow who he was. No one else can fill his boots.
Wing
I love the rock, but let’s face a pirates movie without Jack Sparrow himself is Dead on Arrival on some level Disney must know this
Robbie
No Depp? No Disney. DONE.
Pharoyar
This guy even has a character in the game Fortnite, so he’s already everwhere.
Plutarch Heavensbee
Time to start shorting Disney stocks
Michelle
Without Johnny, there is no pirates of the Caribbean.
I like the Rock, but no class in taking anything to do with what is rightfully Johnnys.. not just that but HOW DISNEY TREATED JOHNNY!! That’s what’s so classless about all of this… Disney should be ashamed of themselves, in a world where you are innocent until proven guilty… they acted as judge & jury, before the facts!
I don’t blame Johnny for walking away for good after how they have treated him.
Johnny is Cap’n Jack Sparrow, Disney’s loss an I hope it fails miserably.
Donna
This is the new world now. Guilty before proven otherwise. Cancel culture. You can’t cancel Johnny Depp. POTC IS NOTHING WITHOUT JOHNNY DEPP. He was born to be capt jack sparrow. And without him, it will fail. I will not go see it.
Ginger
No Johnny, No Pirates. Disney who?
Donna
Agreed.
Jody
This is how out of touch Disney is with the real world. Their WOKE agenda was Depp is guilty until proven innocent.
Same disturbing WOKE agenda that they approve of Adults talking sex with 5 year olds.
Just change the Princess Castle to the Pedophile Palace . Nobody but woke idiots will pay to see another Pirates movie. Now that Depp proved his innocence Disney once again must eat crap and lost thousands of Disney fans.
Donna
Pirates is NOTHING without Johnny Depp. Good luck Disney. It’ll flop hard. I’m not the only person who’ll have this opinion. This will be 100% of POTC and Johnny depp. I do love the rock but this will just make people hate him just like Ashton Kutcher in two and a half men. I agree with another poster. It’s time to put POTC to rest now before you completely ruin it
CedaxV
No Depp=no me.
Get out of here with that crap.
No offense Rock.
Lil
Will never watch anything Disney again.
Lisa
There is NO WAY JOHNNY CAN BE REPLACED !!!! HE IS CAP.JACK SPARROW!!
DISNEY IS OUT OF THEIR MINDS!!!!
AND THIS FILM WILL BE BOTCOTTED I CAN GUARANTEE YOU THAT!!! DISNEY IS ABSOLUTLY CRAZY TO REPLACE JOHNNY DEPP!! I KNOW MILLIONS AND MILLIONS AGREE!!!!
RodolfoG
Johnny depp is the one who made that film interesting started going down a lil in last movies bec they focused a lil more on other characters
I wont watch Dwayne Johnson as new character he sucks . Disney f-ckd up should atleast waited to see what was up with situation
PJ
Recasting Johnny-Depp’s role as Captain Jack Sparrow to someone, anyone, else is like recasting Daniel Radicliff’s role as Harry Potter before Deathly Hollows… it is just never going to work! Not to mention the majority public opinion after the conclusion of the trial that Amber is culpable. It’s time to reconsider your opinion Disney! (Especially when some of the same producers still work with Tom Cruise, who is deranged & spokesman for an abusive cult that takes children out of school, puts them into ‘life contracts’ & embezles $ from hundreds of thousands of people!!!) Hollywood makes no sense!
Miguel
That will be a big mistake!
Pam
Disney and Johnny depp make ammends and make the movie the way it was intended. (Somewhere in the movie needs to be 300 Alpacas) JD IS the one and only Captain Jack Sparrow and will always be, no matter who you cast. You have known him for 20 years and he made you billions. The Rock is awesome but we all know who the real Captain Jack Sparrow is. Pirates were not perfect people either right? No one is perfect, we are all human. You cant just delete all people that dont fit into the perfect mold. Please reconsider. I have been on POTC ride to many times to count, watched all of your movies. Your fans of the movie series deserve to see the real Captain Jack Sparrow!!
Ginny
No no no no no. If that happens I will not be watching it. He makes the whole movie!!!
Concerned
Is it because it’s a black man taking johnny beat a woman Depp’s place let it go people the rock will make the movie better
Dorella
I like Dwayne Johnson, but…. he will not fit the roll of Johnny Depp. Mr. Depp is the original character in this movie. Replacing Mr.Johnson will not be the same. No offense to Mr.Johnson but it will not be the same. Love both actors.
Cathi
Love Dwayne..but Pirates movies are all about Johnny Depp!
DISNEY IS GOING DOWNHILL IN MY EYES IN MANY WAYS.
But not having Jonny Depp…sorry. lost my vote.
Victoria
If Mister Smoking Hot Johnnie Depp is not going to Captain Jack Sparrow in the upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean then with sad heart . . . I am done with the “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise as a whole. Never in my whole life would I have thought that Disney would have taken such an iconic role away from one of the best world wide known franchises.
Linda
No thank you. Depp has to be in it, or no go. Wouldn’t be the same.
Kelly
I didn’t much like Johnny Depp, but he was ok. But, Dwayne Johnson??!? You-all realize he was a Pro Wrestler??!? Every pro wrestler oughta be banned from acting. Period.
Tammy Thoman
Good luck…any project where Jonny depp was fired from will have the same box office flop money wise as the fantastic beast…how’s was that smart??go broke on your bull Hollywood..tired of hearing fans have no control…um we line your pockets..think on that
Stephanie
I like the Rock, but not in Pirates of the Caribbean. The movie won’t be the same without Jack Sparrow and there’s only one Jack Sparrow and that is Johnny Depp. I’m in the process of ordering all movies with Johnny Depp. Disney owes him an apology. I definitely will not be watching a new Pirate movie without Johnny.
Pam
Disney clearly dislikes men who have been abused by their partners……
Alfredo
Wait what? Naw you guys are ruining movies. If you do this you will lose so many fans. We don’t watch that bull movie cause of Orlando bloom we watch it cause of jack Sparrow. The real one. Jonny Depp. I won’t waste no money going to watch it or even waste the gb’s to download it. Such a waste.
Ronald
will be stupid thing to do by dweyn johnson no way he can ever replace Johny Depp he can only lose reputation by taking this Job
his managment should stop him
Robin
I am totally done with Disney. The way they did JD was typical of a power move done to all of us, daily.
As a former DV survivor, and a Social Worker for 35+years, i know REAL domestic violence and “made-up” DV… especially in the detail.
Disney should’ve held off decisions until BOTH sides of the stories could be heard.
I like Dwayne J. for his limited genre of performing. Not for this roll. He’s NO replacement for Mr. Depp, in any fashion or form. (But not too many self-professed “actors” are.) Let Pirates Go!! No one wins with this very bad decision.
Tiffany
Heck no..nobody can replace Our Captain Jack Sparrow…just like nobody can replace The Rock in his movies.. come on Disney get ur act together…and the Rock come on..any good actor would say no
Andrea
Well that sucks I love the rock but really
Tiffani
I love the ROCK..huge fan, however I will not watch this movie. There is only one man that can portray capt Jack Sparrow and that’s Johnny Depp!!!
Kim Blinn
For me, no one but Johnny Depp could ever be Captain Jack Sparrow. I will NOT be watching any more POTC movies without Johnny.
Lynn
NO! NO!
NO! Love the Rock but are you kidding me¿¿¿!!!!!
JACK SPARROW IS JOHNNY DEPP AND JOHNNY DEPP IS JACK SPARROW
Zach
I will not be watching the new film or even the spinoffs unless Johnny Depp plays captain Jack Sparrow I’ve got nothing against Dwayne he’s an amazing actor but only one man fits that role and I’m sorry but it most certainly is not u. Honest opinion complete disrespect to Johnny Depp for accepting that role. For me unless Johnny Depp is in the new ones the series is finished for me
Cindy
No thank you. When u got rid of Johnny Depp the series died. All your going to do is waste money. Let Jack Sparrow Live In Peace.
Dave
“Everything Woke turns to $hit”!
Missy
I like Dwayne Johnson but I think if he was truly offers the role he should have turned it down. They should stand together because the exact same thing can happen to them. Johnny Depp made this movie and cannot, in my opinion, be replaced.
ROGER D STEVENS
Dwayne is a great actor, would love to see him play the Genie. But I will not watch another POTC without Capt. Jack (Johnny Depp) Sparrow, will not be the same. Jerry is a back stabber along with Disney execs.
judy157244@aol.com
You have lost your mind the Rock can’t be Jack Sparrow only Johnny Depp. He is Jack Sparrow. I like the Rock but if he plays this part it will be a bomb
Patti
I wish Dwayne well, but no thanks for me. Jack Sparrow will never be anyone but Johnny Depp. So done with Pirates.
Dawn
Wow, tell me you only read the header, without telling me you only read the header. Does nobody actually read anything?!?!?!
Quote from the “article”:
“It doesn’t seem that Johnson would play the role of Captain Jack Sparrow, but rather would be a different character introduced in the franchise, similar to what will be seen with Margot Robbie’s spinoff film. ”
He would not be playing Jack Sparrow, it would be a SPIN-OFF and completely different characters.
Julian H
Disney move on, without Depp the franchise is dead – period.
I like both Dwayne and Margot but Johnny Depp is Jack Sparrow.
Karen Taylor
I watch Pirates because of Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow! Johnny Depp is why Pirates works, so no Johnny, no thanks! I don’t care who the put in the movie, without him I won’t watch another Pirates movie. #JusticeForJohnny
Ann Ebert
While I like Dwayne Johnson. I am not interested in any way in seeing him in a POC movie. I agree with the others. Without Jack Sparrow, just let the franchise go. Create something new for a change.
Sabrina
I like Dwanye Johnson …but he or anyone else could never replace Johnny as captain Jack sparrow..you lost out Disney when you let Johnny go….Johnny will be ok the world stands behind him ..Disney you never did…you don’t deserve Johnny in anyway shape or form..
Johnnie Lee herron

Johnny Depp “makes” the movie. I won’t be waiting for the new movie. I wonder how much money Disney will be losing ‘cause I know they lost mine.

I won’t be seeing this nor would I recommend anyone seeing it. Johnny Depp is Jack Sparrow, he made the character what it is today. Would rather them just kill the rest of the series. Then try to bring in someone to play in the last movie.

Nothing against the Rock but the dude is way to big to be captain jack sparrow now maybe a villain in the movie but without Johnny Depp it won’t be the same but if any thing bring a new young face in to be the child of sparrow just don’t replace him it doesn’t look good on Disney and the franchise especially now that he has been cleared of all allegations I would offer him 50 million and 2 million alpacas I would do what ever it took to get him back and if not don’t go forward with the movie but that’s not who Disney is they ruin franchise’s

End of pirates and end of Rock!

I am done with Pirates. I don’t believe they should have fired Johnny Depp, innocent till proven guilty remember. However,I like the Rock,I don’t like Disney. I stopped watchinh them ,cancelled their channel when they became so family unfriendly. I’ll leave it at that. My advice to the Rock, get awat from Disney. As with AH,fans can turn away from you. Your good but no Johnny Depp,Honey.
