After four years, Johnny Depp’s portrayal of Jack Sparrow was featured in a Disney light display

After a jury found in Johnny Depp’s favour in a defamation case against his ex-wife Amber Heard, Disney has reinstated his face on its castle. It also comes just weeks after Johnny declared ‘nothing on this world’ would lure him to return to his role as Captain Jack Sparrow in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, which he purportedly lost after Amber revealed she was a domestic abuse victim in a 2018 piece.

Just four days after Amber’s piece was published in 2018, Disney, which had distanced itself from Johnny, projected the actor’s image as Jack Sparrow onto the castle at Disneyland Paris. People on social media uploaded photos and videos of Johnny in a Pirates of the Caribbean movie.

The audience erupted in applause as Johnny’s face showed on the screen, followed by a line spoken by him in the film. While the series’ theme music played, more moments from the film of Johnny were presented. Fireworks and fountains were also part of the light show.

It’s the first time Disney has used Johnny’s image as Jack in the light show since 2018. Johnny was no longer a part of the blockbuster franchise, according to Disney production president Sean Bailey, who told The Hollywood Reporter in 2018 that they ‘want to bring in a fresh energy and vigour,’ a rationale that not everyone believed. A significant argument in Johnny’s defamation was that he had lost his treasured position as Jack Sparrow.

During the recent trials in the case in Virginia, Johnny informed Amber’s counsel that “nothing on this earth” could persuade him to return to work with Disney on a Pirates of the Caribbean picture, not even “$300 million and a million alpacas.” He went on to say, “Two years had passed since I’d been accused of being a wife-beater all around the world. So I’m sure Disney was attempting to cut ties in order to be safe. At the time, the #MeToo movement was in full swing. My persona was not removed from the rides. They continued to offer Captain Jack Sparrow dolls. They didn’t put a halt to their sales. They just didn’t want to find anything following after me.”

Fans have demanded an apology from Disney, as well as his reinstatement in the role of the iconic pirate. “Yeah so @Disney cares apologising to Johnny Depp?” one tweeted. “Perhaps it’s a sign…….. Pirates of the Caribbean 6????” said another. A third person stated, “That is really stunning!!! It’s the best thing I’ve seen in a long time. Honoring the man and the persona he fashioned. That character was created by him. I created the lines, the walk, and the accent. It’s all him. He is a genius in every sense of the word. Finally. Disney, please accept my apologies.”

The jury found both Johnny and Amber guilty of slander on June 1, but Johnny received a larger monetary award. Amber owes him $8.35 million at the moment.
