Captain Jack Sparrow is back… not necessarily in “Pirates of the Caribbean 6” – but, Johnny Deepresurrected the character to cheer up some children who were going through difficult times.
The actor stopped by a children’s hospital in San Sebastián, Spain… dressed as his lovable pirate Captain Jack – complete with eyeliner, dreadlocks and his slightly drunken gait.
Check out the video… JD gave a cheerful shout-out to the hard-working doctors on site – appearing to drop character later to have a meaningful conversation with some of the medical staff on site.
He also took a large group photo with the staff… capping off what was almost certainly an emotional video for both staff and patients.
Worth noting… Depp is in Spain for the premiere of his new film Modi – all about 72 chaotic hours in the bohemian artist’s life Amedeo Modigliani. While it doesn’t star Depp, he is directing it – only the second feature film he has directed.
Many fans also want to see Depp back on screen in big roles… especially as Jack Sparrow – although that seems extremely unlikely these days.
Remember… Johnny was basically ostracized from Hollywood after his legal troubles with his ex Amber Heard — and that includes Disney moving away from him as Jack.
Rumors of other “Pirates of the Caribbean” films have persisted over the past two years — including a version starring a woman Margot Robbie — but there have been no substantive conversations about Johnny’s return.
Even if he doesn’t return to the screen, one thing is certain… Johnny is always willing to reprise his role for the kids!
