Pirates of the Caribbean producer gives hope for Johnny Depp return

Fans of Johnny Depp had been hoping that he will be brought back for Pirates of the Caribbean 6, and Jerry Bruckheimer, the film’s producer, sounds like a huge fan of him.

Speaking with Deadline’s Behind the Lens with Pete Hammond, Bruckheimer said: “He’s just so good at what he does and actors recover from things like this, Depp’s a good individual and he’s a caring individual. He’s somebody that you can rely on and he’s just terrific.”

When asked if Depp could return in Pirates 6, he replied: “I think Johnny is an utter friend and an amazing artist and, again, you go through things in life you wish you hadn’t, but he’s still a talented artist.”

It’s interesting to note that the producer earlier expressed his “desire” for the actor to return as Jack Sparrow.
