Actor Johnny Depp has had a long career as a character actor. But despite his long resume, his name will likely always be synonymous with his tenure playing Jack Sparrow in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise. That property began with 2003s Curse of the Black Pearl, which recently celebrated its 20th anniversary. Pirates turned 20 this year, and one star looked back at filming with Depp. Lets break it all down. <\/p>\n
Johnny Depps performance as Jack Sparrow has been universally acclaimed, although studio execs thought he was actually drunk when filming Curse of the Black Pearl. That first movie featured an ensemble cast including Zoe Saldaa and actor Vince Lozano who played the pirate Jacoby. He recently spoke to MovieWeb about his experience on the movie, and working with the Edward Scissorhands actor. As he put it, <\/p>\n
Hanging out with [other] pirates, telling stories, building some camaraderie, making jokes on each other of course. Hanging out with Geoffrey Rush, talking about acting, life; same thing with Johnny Depp. Asking him, 'How did you come up with this character? 'He would tell me stories about how he did it, jumping into a pool, coming out cold and thinking about how British musician Keith Richards moved his body. Johnny is one of the best people youll ever meet. <\/p>\n
There you have it. While Saldaa has been open about struggles filming the first Pirates flick, that experience seemingly wasnt universal.

These comments about Depps character are sure to go viral, especially given how many headlines hes been making over the last few years. Johnny Depps legal battle against Amber Heard has in some ways dwarfed his long resume, partly because fans were able to watch them face off in court via television. There are a number of allegations about the 60 year-old actor, although Lozano thinks hes one of the best people that one could ever meet. <\/p>\n
Despite these headlines and controversies, Johnny Depp still has a strong contingent of loyal fans. Some of those fans have been petitioning to see him return to the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, although theres been no indication that Disney is planning to move forward with him. Although the House of Mouse was reportedly developing a few Pirates projects, one of which might be starring Margot Robbie. <\/p>\n
Following the defamation verdict, Depp has been keeping busy as both a musician and filmmaker. His first post-trial movie recently premiered, and hes also directing a movie with Al Pacino. In the meantime, check out the 2023 movie release dates to plan your next movie experience. <\/p>\n
