Johnny Depp, 60, has refused to return to the popular “Pirates of the Caribbean” series, local media reported. Fans around the world are shocked and disappointed.
Johnny has indicated that he will not appear in any Disney films in the future.
At one point, it was reported that Disney, which produces the series, offered him a hefty $20 million (approximately 2.8 billion yen) to return to the film, but negotiations broke down, according to the Daily Mail tabloid. However, according to the Daily Mail, negotiations have broken down and Johnny has indicated that he will not appear in any more Disney films.
Sean Bailey, 53, president of Walt Disney Studios Motion Picture Productions, recently told the New York Times that the reboot of the “Pirates of the Caribbean” series is “a top priority for the company. The film is “a top priority for the company,” he said.
Although he said that he would “avoid saying at this time” whether he would bring back Johnny as the main character Jack Sparrow, it seems that a complete relaunch of the popular series did not come to fruition.
According to a source close to Johnny who spoke to “Daily Mail,” Johnny turned down the offer because Disney unilaterally decided to drop him while he was in court with his ex-wife Amber Heard (37).
The source is critical of the decision, saying, “They (the Disney side) blindly kicked Johnny out even though Amber was lying.
Johnny was also dropped from the “Fantastic Beasts” series, which is produced by Warner Bros. over a row with Amber.
The source mentioned above said, “Johnny will never appear in a Disney or Warner movie in the future, no matter how lucrative the offer is,” and also revealed that Johnny, who is unhappy with the way the movie industry handled his trial, thinks it is best for him to lead a life away from the movie industry from now on. He also stated that he thinks it is in his best interest to stay away from the film industry from now on.
Johnny’s trial with his ex-wife Amber ended with a victory for his side, but the series of turmoil had a great impact on his mentality, and after the trial, Johnny spends most of his time in France, concentrating on music and art rather than acting.
A source said, “Johnny says he is not interested in speaking anyone else’s language (as an actor). He is now interested in expressing himself authentically through music and art, and has no interest in Hollywood,” said a source who spoke to us about Johnny’s recent situation.
However, many fans are still looking forward to seeing Johnny’s acting career, as his film “Jeanne du Barry” was applauded at the Cannes International Film Festival last month.
When congratulated on his comeback to the screen at the festival, Johnny said, “I’m not making a comeback from anywhere, by the way. （I know people have stopped calling me after the debacle, but I’m not going anywhere,” he commented.
The focus of attention continues to be on Johnny’s future communications, as well as his activities as an actor.
