    Did this just happen at Disneyland, or Walt Disney World too?

    1. We need Jonny Deep in the pirates of the Caribbean 6 movie and in the pirates of the Caribbean ride in Disney world and at Disney studios for pirates of the Caribbean 6 movie and other future pirates of the Caribbean 6 movie johnny deep as Jack Sparrow

        I also noticed in Disneyland california, that the lady in the window isnt there and the window doesn’t open anymore where she tells her husband being dunked in the well to not tell pirates. What happened to her

    3. Maybe age 21

    The wife of the guy being dunked in the well has been missing for several weeks as well. But you can still hear her voice while on the ride.

    1. The Cap’n went away to do a Lume commercial.

  3. I’m really hoping that this is just a maintenance. In many parts of the world the soles of the feet are seen as unclean. Muslims,Hindus, and Buddhists, consider it disrespectful to have the bottom of your feet exposed, especially if the feet are above your head. They might have removed him because he’s culturally insensitive.

      honestly I am getting sick and tired of people being discusted by different rides. Leave the scenes in and if you dont like it, dont ride the ride……

      1. Robert

        Agree 100%.

      2. Kathy

        I agree, don’t like what you see, don’t ride it or close your eyes. Honestly this is getting out of control. Stop going to the parks all together if they offend you.

      I can almost guarantee that he was pulled for maintenance. Whenever the tech’s have an animatronic that needs extensive work they will pull it from the scene to work on them. For the wife in the window in the Mayor dunking scene, that dialogue wouldn’t work if they turned off her soundtrack. With all of the cutbacks Disney is doing that are getting sloppy. I worked there 30 years ago and details lately have missed and it’s getting noticed. With a phone in everyone’s hand everyone is a news critic now for the world to see! I feel if we are going to strike everything that may offend someone we may just need to paint everything beige and call it a day.

      1. That

        That’s exactly right it has to due with maintenance, he will be back soon.

    3. Stop bringing culture into everything

      Overthink much?

      I find it offensive that they treat women as property and not citizens. Based on your logic, maybe they should cancel Alladin.

  4. Nikki

    He was back 4/8 and 4/9…so must’ve just been a repair or maintenance!

  5. Linda

    I don’t know, but it seems suspicious to me…..
    It very well may be a maintenance issue however Disney & Depp hmm makes me wonder.
    I despise that Disney turned their back on JD BEFORE they found out the verdict & of Johnny’s innocence of all accusations.
    Bad move Disney.

      But… it wasn’t the Jack Sparrow animatronics that were taken out? Plus then there would be what, three missing? The one gone was the fellow sitting on top of the archway with his bare foot hanging down.

      It’s usually maintenance; another commenter said it’s already back. I’ve seen various characters vanish and reappear over the years (back when I lived in CA), one Jack included (long prior to that woman). I just think of it as actors getting a wee spa day before coming back good as new! Though the Jack coming out of the barrel was comically replaced with a basket of flowers. It was so out of place; well worth a good laugh. He was back before my trip was over that time around.

    I hope this ride is closing it’s time for it to go and bring in something new I hate pirate of the Caribbean I would like to see them put in Aladdin in it’s place at Disney World that would make my day.

    1. Sithlord

      If you hate the ride don’t ride it.

      1. Casey

        Or send a complaint/feedback to the park. But in all honesty, I’ve always loved Pirates of the Caribbean since I was a child. Still do. Would ride it a thousand times without getting bored.

      Wanting something gone just because you don’t like it is really selfish. Maybe learn to lighten up a little.

  7. Jon Heil

    That is disney for you, like their movies and the hidden porno, they want more booty

  8. I’ve been to Disney World multiple times and the ride I look forward to most is Pirates of the Caribbean. I noticed this Christmas this ride didn’t focus on Johnny Depp as in previous years. What a disappointment!

  9. Mason

    Someone at Disney probably got offended by it.

  10. Jonathon

    Literally saw him today on 4/12 🤣

  11. Todd

    I noticed him being missing on Wednesday April 5th

  12. Rachel

    I completly agee with you

  13. Rachel

    The Pirates ride isn’t complet without Johnny Depp

  14. Mikey

    I will boycott any “Pirates of the Caribbean” movies that do not have Johnny

  15. Mikey

    I will boycott any “Pirates of the Caribbean” movies&rides that do not include Johnny Depp.⁶

    Pirates of the Caribbean “needs” Jonny Depp.
    No one needs Disney “Executives” who have no sense of loyalty.
    Killed the golden 💛

    I’m in Disney right now and rode Pirates of the Caribbean 2 days ago . I’d like to put everyone at ease and assure you I saw him and his barefoot above my head the other day. Good to know they maintain the rides . Also rode Tron and the entire set up is amazing from the line experience to the actual ride. On another note they’ve made alot of cuts and it’s not unnoticed. The most ridiculous being the end of the magic express. Plenty of hotels offer shuttles from the airport for their guests.
    For Disney to stop , its a big step backwards in the hospitality industry. Made you realize they don’t give much of a care about the people who stay with them. I’ll rent off property if I come back.
