Johnny Depp discusses possible ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ return and a better send-off

Johnny Depp discussed returning to the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise but did not commit to playing Jack Sparrow again. He wants any involvement to send the series off “on a better note” and expressed willingness to work with Jerry Bruckheimer. In 2025, Bruckheimer thought Depp might return if he liked the part, while work on the screenplay was still underway.
