    3. patsy

      I will not watch it with out Johnny Depp.A bad choice you made

  2. Phomane

    It just wouldn’t be the Pirates of the Caribbean without Johny Depp and that would be a goodbye for me to the franchise if that is the case

    1. Sharon Despres

      AGREE 100%..– NO JD — NO THANX.!!!

    2. Stephanie

      Why not just make a new, different pirate movie and call it something else? No need to insult the originals. This is dumb. I hope it falls flat on its face.

      1. Robin Divincenzo

        Johnny Depp is Jack Sparrow. I refuse to watch POTC if there is no Johnny.

    3. No Johnny No Pirates!!!!

      1. Anthony Churchill

        I am a childhood friend of Johnny Depp, and ran lights in his band when we were growing up in Miami, he is a wonderful person and what Disney has done to him makes no sense, Johnny will be fine with are without Disney.

  3. Lynn Gertsch

    I won’t be watching it if Johnny Depp isn’t in it took a poll in our town No one here will watch it either sorry Disney you really screwed up this time!!!

    1. Sharon Despres

      I AGREE 100%… NO JD — NO THANX

    2. Madeline

      I won’t be watching without Johnny Depp, he’s the iconic figure in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise!! Goodbye Disney!!

  4. Joshua

    Johnny depp should continue as jack sparrow and pass the torch like ghostbusters as done a gd job but the kids were terrible at it

  5. I will no longer be watching any kind of movie from Disney without the original Johnny Depp. Or jack sparrow. There’s only one person I’ll ever watch will still b Johnny Depp. No one else has the talent to do it!!!.

    1. Barb Silverman

      If you want to make a new Pirates OTC, without Johnny, just make a new movie not called POTC. Johnny’s fans are loyal to him. Face it, you screwed up. We love Johnny.

      1. EXACTLY THAT!!!!!

        1. Mama Mari

          DITTO!

      2. Dalyn Green

        THE ONLY WAY A “BACK TO THE YOUTH OF JACK SPARROW” Could Work Would Be IF JACK DEPP STARRED IN IT!!! WITH JOHNNY’S GUIDANCE & BLESSING!!! WHICH WOULD AT LEAST INVOLVE DRASTIC DEMOTION/ FIRING OF THE PENCIL -PUSHING BEAN COUNTER(S) CURRENTLY RUINING DISNEY!!! AS WELL AS TOTALLY ABJECT APOLOGY TO JOHNNY!!!

    2. Sharon Despres

      AGREE. NO JD NO THANX

    3. Jan

      I totally agree. No one else could play the part of Jack Sparrow the way Johnny Depp always had played him there’s no replacing Johnny Depp. So far as I’m concerned the new movies aren’t worth watching.

  6. Bon

    Nope

  7. Mary J.

    No Johnny Depp, No Pirates Of The Caribbean!

    1. Sandra

      No Depp, won’t be watching anything made by Disney+

    2. Pirates of the Caribbean without Johnny Depp? No way. Just no. Disney’s treatment of Johnny Depp has been abominable.

  8. Khayne

    Let it die. A simple fact is they can’t do parts of the caribbean by recasting Johnny Depp… The only way they would even remotely have a chance to continue the series is to move on without him which is a shame because he is an amazing character. I see this as already failing because I don’t know how they can work this. Disney is making a bunch of short-sighted decisions that hurt it in the long run and they can’t afford it . They just need to suck it up and apologize to Johnny Depp and get him on the project and maybe make a handover series or movie…. That’s the only way to work.

    1. Ang

      Disney can do plenty by recasting Johnny Depp and I love all the original crew in it and it’s simple no Depp no movie bc it will flop big-time bc Johnny Depp fans aren’t having it

      1. Barbara

        I won’t be watching. No one can do Captain Jack but Johnny Depp.

  9. Dan

    Pirates of the Caribbean is just not Pirates without Johnny Depp. You have done Johnny Wrong and he deserves that part. Your movie will fail.

  10. Brenda Dye

    Why even try?? It will be a waste of time, effort and $$.
    No Johnny Depp
    No way !!!
    These ppl are fools!!! 🙄

    1. Sharon Despres

      AGREE 100%.. NO JD. NO THANX EVER…

    2. Marie J

      Looks like Disney is getting set to lose more money. They have not been making good decisions in a long time. After all Johnny has done for them, they owe him a lot. Listen to the fans, no Johnny, no POTC!!

  11. Kathryn

    Why is Johnny Depp not returning to Pirates? His character is about 50% of what makes the movies great. Losing him is losing the attraction.

    1. Ang

      Disney if you do another POTC with Mr.JOHNNY DEPP aka Captain Jack Sparrow which Johnny is my most favorite actor in the whole world he’s my relative he’s done good by you and made you tons of money and quite frankly w/o him I truly believe your movie will flop bc the fans are not going to watch it period

  12. Franklin

    Not a chance any Pirate movie going forward can succeed without Jack Sparrow.
    Disney needs to swallow their pride and apologize to Johnny Depp publicly and then the series will go on. Going to his younger life when everyone knows he is gone for good will flop.
    Just as the Indian Jones series never really caught on.
    It’s one thing if they make a few movies and Johnny Depp decides to the end the character.
    But no one will accept what Disney did. And the thought to give them movie ticket money or stream on Disney Plus to watch a new series is NOT HAPPENING.
    Bye Disney. Bring back Depp until he wants to end his character. Or watch your Pirate movies flop bigtime.

    1. Sharon Despres

      AGREE 100%. NO JD..NO THANX EVER!!!!!

  13. Tabitha

    The Movie Without Johnny Depp won’t be any good, why waste the money & time to make the movie? That is just stupid & waste of time. Johnny Depp is & the only that is good enough to play Captain Jack Sparrow. I will not watch or even buy the movie without Johnny Depp in it.

  14. Sandy Mijota

    If Johnny Depp is NOT in
    P.O.T.C. 6 Movie; I’ll be boycotting Disney and anyone associated with the movie. Many friends and Family have said the same thing!!!! What Disney and the rest of the movie makers NEED TO REMEMBER is that it’s the public who go to the movies that decide if they make or lose money on that movie. I’d NEVER watch anything that wouldn’t have Johnny Depp involved!!! Disney was so quick to believe he was guilty, BUT HOW WRONG THEY WERE!!!! Millions of his fans will support him if Disney does the WRONG THING, AGAIN!!!!!!!

  15. Lynn Carol Feinn

    No Johnny ,no thanks . Even a TV series showcasing the young jack Sparrow doesn’t even sound appealing to me. Good Luck in the attempt.

  16. TammyP

    Johnny Depp IS Captain Jack Sparrow! Glad I have all his Pirate movies DVDs!

  17. Lynda

    Without johnny depp – sorry but not sorry – not interested in pirates of the Caribbean without johnny depp – begrudgingly good luck –

  18. mitzi

    no Johnny, no Jack Sparrow. Disney messed up by not keeping Depp in this role. I’m glad I bought the DVDs so I’ll just watch them. Depps brilliant & comedic acting made Jack Sparrow come alive.

    1. Norma

      No Depp.. I won’t be watching it!

  19. Rebecca

    Not wasting my time on this movie without Johnny Depp, there’s no pirates of the Caribbean

  20. Pirates of the Caribbean will not be Pirates of the Caribbean without him! It will be nothing I will want to see. I will not watch it.

  21. I won’t watch it again I think it’s just crazy

  22. Sharon Despres

    I AGREE 100%… NO JD — NO THANX

  23. No Johnny depp , I want be watching it , I’m all the Johnny depp fan and I don’t think Disney going succeed without Johnny depp as capital jack sparrow. If there letting Johnny depp go then they need to say goodbye to the franchias as well cause no one will watch , so they will lose money if they continue with the franchise

  24. CT

    I am done with Pirates of the Caribbean. I am not interested in anything that doesn’t have Johnny Depp. We are not, and will never be, Disney+ subscribers.

  25. SumGal

    Sigh, I will say it again. No Johnny, No Pirates.
    It is that simple. POTC is nothing without Captain Jack. Not interested in any other version of the story.

  26. Laurie

    Ah, No

  27. Sara

    It’s not Jack Sparrow without Johnny Depp! Pass.

  28. Angie

    Disney is going to ruin Pirates the same way they ruin Star wars.

  29. Angie

    It’s clear the higher up don’t Care about loyal fans, only profit.

    1. Raine

      Haha! They must not care that much about profit either, because they’re going to literally lose millions on any future PotC projects that don’t include Johnny Depp as Capt. Jack Sparrow.
      IF and that’s a BIG IF they make a single dime of their initial budget back I will be surprised, they definitely won’t make any profit because from everything I have read online including all the comments here, NO ONE has any interest in wasting their time or money to see a PotC film or series that doesn’t include Depp.

  30. Reggie

    No JD then I’m not watching!! F—k Disney.

  31. Gary

    Yeah good luck Disney you guys aren’t going to make money in fact this reboot will be just as bad as “The Little Mermaid” without Johnny Depp.

  32. Kathy K

    Disney’s Loss
    Without Mr. Johnny Depp
    as Captain Jack Sparrow
    Theater seats will be
    … Far from FULL

  33. Blah blah blah. Do you get paid by the word?

  34. Oakley

    No Johnny….no Captain Jack! Good luck with that

  35. Oakley

    Sorry… No Johnny no Captain Jack!

  36. Caligirl1960

    Sorry to say without Johnny Depp continuing his role they might as well pack it up and end it.

  37. Lindy

    May be it a complete and total failure!!
    #NoJohnnyNoPirates!
    There is only only one Jack Sparrow and that is Johnny’s Jack! There is NO other!

  38. Bob K.

    NO JD No Pirates

  39. Grace

    This is not the first time Disney has screwed thier high grossing actors. So sick of this woke following. Sorry Disney you blew it again. There is only one Jack Sparrow, that’s Johnny Depp.

  40. Debra Vaughn

    I have watched everyone of the PC, but if Johnny Depp is not in it I will not be watching. I worked for Disney in the 80s and all i can say is Disney has fallen from what Walt Disney wanted it to be. I will also be cancelling my Disney plus and our Disney vacation we have been planning as well. Disney has become a disgrace

  41. Juli Barnhart

    I agree with everyone! No Johnny Depp, no interest in this film any longer. What is Disney even thinking. Punishing this man for something he never did?? Shame on you!!

  42. Frank Tarantino

    This is the new theme at Disney, feminism at its max! Kathleen Kenady is at the forefront and she is a feminism Marxist. She single-handedly is destroying Disney.

  43. Jennifer Deweese

    Well, you have completely lost my respect and my to any and everything Diney. You’re very ignorant. I’m with Johnny I wouldn’t come back for 300 million and 100 alpacas. So this is goodbye.

  44. Connie

    No Johnny Depp no thank you I will not watch it JD is Captain Jack sparrow

  45. Carina Frasier

    It’s not going to fly. Literally. Too many people are loyal to Johnny Depp, myself included…heck, my family and friends included! lol

    Disney should really just give it up as far as a POC anything without Johnny.

    They are cutting off their nose to spite their face. But, have at it, Disney.

    We seriously love you, Johnny!!

  46. If Johnny Depp isn’t in it you can keep it. He is the only reason that I would go-he epitomizes the perfect pirate.

  47. Kara

    Johnny created Jack Sparrow and the main characters won’t do any movies or show without their friend and main character. If Disney wants another Pirates movie then have it be nothing to do with Jack Sparrow. Nobody is going to watch a movie or a show without Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow and quit making live action cartoon movies think of new ideas.

  48. R

    Disney sure is inventing new ways to screw up good things. Potc is nothing without Depp. It’s a sad and poor sideshow without him. Disney should just swallow it’s pride and either get him back in the roll he was born to do or end the potc movies.

  49. David

    Forget it Disney! No Johnny Depp, then you sunk Pirates of the Caribbean. Love the movies but Johnny Depp was Captain Sparrow and there is no replacing him. I guess it’s over for PTOC. Good luck trying to stay afloat Disney. 👎

  50. Chad

    “Due to Disney success with spin-offs…” bahaha

  51. kari

    Disney will not get another cent from me!!! They screwed up big time!!! Johnny Depp IS CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW!!!

  52. Big D

    Disney and the producers just don’t get it. Without Johnny Depp as Captain Jack, there is no pirate franchise. It is dead in the water. It will be just a big hole in the ocean that they throw money at and never see anything come of it.

  53. Linda

    Won’t be watching. No Johnny Depp as Sparrow, none of my money.
