Pirates of the Caribbean: Johnny Depp To Not Return As Captain Jack Sparrow

Blockbuster movies have been seen by audiences across the globe, and their characters have entered American pop culture vernacular. The latest installment will see Johnny Depp’s character of Captain Jack Sparrow replaced by a new actor yet to be revealed. While some are saddened by the idea of an iconic actor leaving such an iconic role, many feel that this is a positive change for the series, which is becoming stale in recent years.

The actor is set to appear in the upcoming movie Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, which will see him play Jack Sparrow once again.
