Johnny Depp Felt ‘Betrayed’ by Disney Firing, Wanted to Give Jack Sparrow a ‘Proper Goodbye’

Losing the role of Captain Jack Sparrow is something Johnny Depp couldn’t help but take personally. After committing to five feature films in the Pirates of the Caribbean series, Depp has since parted ways with Disney, a move the actor attributes to allegations against him made by ex-wife Amber Heard. Now suing Heard for defamation, Depp previously addressed his comments that he could never revisit that role, even if Disney were to come back around and offer hundreds of millions of dollars.
