    It’s this easy.If Johnny Depp is not Captain Jack Sparrow in the new upcoming movie then I am done with Disney.End of story.

    1. Betty

      Same here!!! Depp is the ONLY one who can portray him!!!

      1. Wynelle

        Johnny Depp is the only Jack Sparrow I started watching the movies because he was in them if he not in any of the new ones I will not be watching Disney have done Johnny Depp wrong

      2. Michala

        There is only one jack sparrow

      3. Done with Disney

        Johnny Depp is the one and only Captain Jack Sparrow, end of discussion! I will not ever watch another pirate movie of he’s not in it.

        1. Ray

          I will not watch pirates of the Caribbean either without Johnny Depp

        2. Andrea Thomas

          I totally agree!!!!!! These movies will never be great and awesome if johnny Depp isn’t Jack Sparrow….isn’t fair that Amber Herd got a clip in the movie Aquaman….I will cherish the collection 1-5…no Disney for me!!!

          1. K

            Disney took Depp out of the Fantastic Beast series. With the replacement the movie failed and the 2 sequels have been canceled. Doesn’t Disney learn? Trying to cancel him won’t work.

      4. Kimberly

        Ditto! I would bet my lufe on it as fact, that the whole f’ing world would and will agree to the above statements. No Jonny, No sale! Disney can take their woke joke some place else. He’s one of the best actors on the planet and the movie can’t servive with out him!

          Disney just cut their own throught won’t be watching there stuff again talk about prejudgement your are ment to be innocent until proven guilty up yours disney

          1. Suzann Dufresne

            Everyone needs to boycott the movie so they have a massive financial loss over their poor decision. No Johnny Depp = No more Pirates of the Caribbean movies.

    2. Sharon Greyson

      Right he was amazing in that movie.. please don’t do that. No one will like it . 🥲
      When you say the name. CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW. Who pops in you mind ? RIGHT
      There you go!!

      1. In a country that advocates innocence until proven guilty Disney/Hollywood prejudiced him. If Disney won’t employ Johnny Depp, you will never see me or mine affiliated with anything Disney

        1. Carol Sutherland

          We the people who pay for the privilege of watching the Depp Play in the pirate series… Disney has their Own skeletons… let’s not forget!! Put Johnny where he belongs.. Back in the Pirate series… OR we the people, May never respect you again…

        2. MalVax321

          Disney had always been that way. Any allegation, and you’re out. Disney has never cared about truth… And even after someone is found innocent, they have to stick by what they say.

    3. Kimberly

      I agree. Strongly

    4. How dare Disney, treat my Beautiful hubby to be Johnny Depp this way. He built captain Jack sparrow from the ground up, he’s only one that can portray him with his charisma. ,

    5. Bill

      Disney has made alot of bad choices over the last few years .
      Removing Jonny Depp as captain Jack would be another.
      By by Disney

    6. Margaret Martin

      Disney can try all they can, but they will never replace Johnny Depp. Big mistake, Disney. Johnny Depp is Jack Sparrow. He made the character, the real character of Jack Sparrow, with his wonderful acting ability.

    7. Bev

      Me too, Bruce…

    8. Dianne

      Exactly 💯! Me too!

  2. kacey_09

    Since when have movie studios to decide they have control of what their audiences? Don’t tell me they want to live like the Chinese.

    And I’m anxious to see Disney fail if they don’t use Johnny.

    1. Antoinette Castaneda

      Disney is losing out big time. I absolutely love Johnny Depp, the one and only true Captain Jack Sparrow.

  3. Diane Wheeler

    Without JOHNNY..
    There is no PIRATES.

    DISNEY.. Money is to be made.. Only with JOHNNY.
    Our family won’t watch
    It without DEPP.
    PLEASE DO the film
    With JOHNNY DEPP..
    THAT’S what your audience wants.

      First, I’m really tired of space wasted on A.H.!!!
      I just saw a trailer of POTC 6. It shows Capt Jack (Johnny) and his pirate daughter. 🤷

      1. Tiffany

        That was a fan made trailer, not real unfortunately

    2. Rox

      He was found not guilty of the allegations. Still censured. Yet Will Smith assaults a peer on national television. What consequences? The double standard is a disgrace.

    3. Antoinette Castaneda

      I absolutely agree 👍🏼💯

  4. Mary McNeil

    Great! Signed in & list my entire post. Love this site!!

  5. I will not watch another Pirates movie without Johnny Depp!!! He was the movie for me. Go ahead and lose your money, because without Depp, you’ve already lost your minds!!!!

  6. Walt Disney

    Pirates of the Caribbean franchise will die out without Johnny Depp in it.

  7. Shari

    THE AMAZING JD is sooo done with Hollywood!!!! He’s never going back and who can blame him. He’s living his life on the “other side” where he’s left alone playing his music and finally enjoying himself!! He’s given so much of himself to us!! It’s time for Johnny now!!!

    1. Doris

      Johnny Depp is Sparrow. There is no other.
      No Sparrow no Disney.

  8. C Devine

    Johnny Depp IS Captain Jack Sparrow and can’t be replaced. Pirates would be pointless without Jack. Disney shouldn’t have been so quick to believe the word of a liar. Maybe if they hadn’t dropped him another Pirates could have been made but too much water under the bridge now.

    Having said that, I actually think Pirates has run its course. Recently watched no 5 and couldn’t be bothered to see it to the end. Cliche followed cliche!
    CJS was a briliant creation but nobody else can play him and maybe the whole franchise should quietly drop. Hope Disney has learned a lesson about loyalty!

    1. Les

      There’s only one Jack Sparrow and thats Johnny Depp, no one else could come close. Just would’nt be the same and no one could play that part with the same charisma.

  9. Andre

    Not even will watch the movie if he is not there as Jack sparrow

  10. Tina

    Done with the movies, NO DEPP, no watch Movie. Shameful🤬🤬🤬🤬 No more Disney trips. I’m done!!

    1. In a country that advocates innocence until proven guilty Disney/Hollywood prejudiced him. If Disney won’t employ Johnny Depp, you will never see me or mine affiliated with anything Disney

  11. Jordan

    There is no pirates of the Caribbean without Johnny Depp.
    Disney knows they made a mistake by accusing him and firing him from the franchise.
    And Disney refuses to own up to their own mistake, firing the man without no evidence, even when the truth came out that she was lying, trying to destroy Johnny Depp’s career.
    If Disney comes out with another Pirates of the Caribbean without Johnny Depp. I will not watch it because Johnny is Pirates of the Caribbean. We will not be mad at any other actor that they put in that role. It’s not their fault it’s all Disney’s fault. The black Pearl has sailed his last mission in the last pirates of the Caribbean.

  12. Yes I agree. If Johnny Depp is not Captain Jack Sparrow in the new POTC 6, then I won’t pay to see the movie. Disney should not be this hard on Johnny after his trial finished in 2022, He did come out a winner. Disney should really rethink there options. Johnny Depp is Captain Jack Sparrow simple as that.

  13. Sharon Despres

    I will never watch another Disney Pirates movie W/O Johnny Depp in it. HE.IS THE ONE AND ONLÝ JACK SPARROW. He made millions for the Studio and now they turn their back on him. TOTALLY ACCEPTABLE………

  14. Rose

    Johnny Depp is the only one believable as Captain Jack Sparrow if he’s not there we won’t watch

  15. Melissa Ann Wilson

    If there are impressionable children love Jack Sparrow and the parents explain what happened, they will then ask, “Mommy, they fired him before he was found innocent! That’s not fair mommy!” I thought Disney was supposed to enrich children and be honest. Here, not so much.

  16. Melissa Ann Wilson

    We’re suppose to teach our children that we are innocent til proven guilty. Disney used to be the happiest place on earth. Disney can’t even back up themselves. They are hypocrites. They could have waited for end of the trial. They will lose a lot of once loyal fans.

  17. Miguel Negron

    No way I’m going to wach any pirates of the Caribbean with out Jonny depth

  18. Russell Hughes

    Then the franchise is done there is no pirates without Johnny Depp

    1. CLR LongBeach

      Fix it…
      Can’t replace it.

      Nothing will remedy the situation…if anybody has invested into the franchise…pull back out cause it’s not going to be a well return.
      That is where the buck stops.
      Think about what will be the win win for the future of anybody’s investing one more dollar…there is no replacement to the flick(s) to be a success there is only one way that is to bring the best movie for our bucks…
      We will not ever pour any money into the box offices
      ..theaters, the streaming of such will leave thee franchises broke, busted and in the deep abyss of -red.

      Fix it

  19. Theresa Bracken

    WHY! I won’t be going to see it! If or when the Movie comes out.

    1. August

      Sounds like Disney is purposely trying to lose money. They probably want to lose money so they can claim tax credits to reduce their taxes. Walt Disney must be turning in his grave on how Disney management keeps putting politics ahead of profits. Disney is a Entertainment company, yet they keep failing to entertain and instead keep being a bunch of hypocrits.

  20. Kathy Garrison

    I will boycott Disney if Johnny Depp is not Jack Sparrow!

  21. Ellen Murphy

    Shame on you Disney! I’m tempted and maybe it is about time that I stop paying my hard earned money to watch Disney movies. Grew up loving Disney. This is just sad. Justice For Johnny!

  22. Christopher

    I can’t wait for the race and gender swap in POTC6
    It’s gonna be such an epic fail and fitting end to Disney.

    1. Let Disney destroy one of its best franchises. I don’t care about Disney. It’s got to the point that everything Disney touches, they “eff” it up. Look what Disney did to Star Wars & Marvel. Both franchises suck. As I’ve pointed out before, go ahead Disney, “eff” up another franchise. You seem to be pretty good at that.

  23. Sharon Marsoun

    If there’s no Captain Jack, I won’t go back!

  24. Johnny Depp as Capt. Jack Sparrow gave Disney millions up to billions of dollar from POTC movies, disney rides, toys & other memorabilia. No Johnny Depp as Capt Jack Sparrow in lead role no fans to support new Pirates of the Caribbean movie. If Disney wants to make a pirate movie, make a new bcoz it is also an insult for Margot Robbie or Ayo to use Johnny Depp’s POTC its like Disney doesn’t trust the acting capabilities Margot Robbie or Ayo to its own movie title

  25. Bob K.

    I agree100 % in what your statement said.

  26. Alan Glade

    Sorry but there is only one captain Jack and without Jonny Depp I won’t watch Disney again

  27. Kevin

    No Jonny Depp, what a monumental mistake by Disney, , Walt would be very disappointed, his plan was please the viewing public, I have already cancelled my Disney subscription.

  28. Bill

    Disney has made a lot of bad decisions in the past few years.
    Removing Jonny Depp as captain Jack would be another.
    By by Disney

  29. Mary Ray

    WHY???

  30. Richard

    No Depp No Pirates!!!

    1. Doris

      John Depp is Sparrow.
      No Sparrow. No Disney.

  31. I hate 2 Say this But if Disney REPLACES Johnny Depp W/SomeOne ELSE??!! YOUR THEATERS R Going 2 ALL BE EMPTY !! THERE IS “ONLY” ONE JACK SPARROW – WHICH IS Johnny Depp , ( SO TO GET SOMEONE ELSE TO TAKE JOHNNY DEPPS PLACE??!! — WOULD BE AN ABSOLUTE DISASTER!! TO PLAY HIS ROLE IN THE PIRATES OF CARRIBEAN) YOUR GOING 2 LOSE (ALOT OF MONEY) TRUST ME!!! THERE IS ONLY ONE JACK SPARROW !! 👍👍👌

  32. Judy W

    Bob Iger apologize to Johnny Depp, pay him $300 plus million, you’ll make an easy billion dollars, and give us, the paying public, our Captain Jack Sparrow. The man has made you billions. No Johnny Depp, No Pirates of the Caribbean.

  33. Janet

    SMH! Johnny IS the movie.Disney is crazy if they think that they can make a other without him.I WOULD NOT BE WATCHING…They are gonna waste their time and money….

  34. Lisa

    Yep, I WILL NOT EVER watch those movies again. I’m done with that.

  35. Bk

    Disney you are full of it after all the money he has made you and you treat your actors like that, I hope everyone boycotts your films then you mite show abit respect for other humans. Just my take but Amber lyer’s films were crapp, Hollywood needs a good kick up the ass an come back and live in the real world Hollywood full of baloons

  36. Linda ward

    Johnny Depp does not play Jack sparrow. I will not go see it.

  37. Theresa

    Look what happened to Aquaman by having Amber Heard in it. It tanked, and not having Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow will tank Pirates!

  38. Paula Estes

    I haven’t watched any Disney since they got rid of Johnny..and if he’s not brought back as Jack or not brought back at all in the Disney movies/shows I am done with anything Disney.. period!

  39. Brian

    The one The only captain Jack Sparrow.

  40. Jonathan

    Me too cause there’s nobody else that can play jack sparrow

  41. Let Disney destroy one of its best franchises. I don’t care about Disney. It’s got to the point that everything Disney touches, they “eff” it up. Look what Disney did to Star Wars & Marvel. Both franchises suck. As I’ve pointed out before, go ahead Disney, “eff” up another franchise. You seem to be pretty good at that.
