Actor Johnny Depp was very attentive to a young YouTuber by sending him a message disguised as Captain Jack Sparrow, the person he plays in the “Pirates of the Caribbean” saga.
Johnny Depp, the face of Pirates of the Caribbean
The career of Johnny Depp is particularly rich. But if there is one role that we will remember of him, it is that of Jack Sparrow in the saga Pirates of the Caribbean. A character he embodied from 2003 and for five films until 2017. Enough to create a veritable horde of fans who have never stopped demanding his return to the franchise. For many, Pirates of the Caribbean cannot be done without the actor. And while Disney tries to revive the universenothing could be less simple for the studio.
From the production of Pirates of the Caribbean: The Vengeance by Salazar (2017), Johnny Depp’s personal setbacks posed some problems. At the time, the actor was not not the easiest to manage on a shoot and his relationship with Amber Heard didn’t help. The actress accusing Johnny Depp of domestic violence. A media and legal battle followed until 2022. After a second trial where the two stars attacked each other for defamation, the case was finally closed.
But the anger of Johnny Depp fans does not seem to have faded and some still claim that he is involved for a new Pirates of the Caribbean. The announcement of an upcoming film worn by Margot Robbie (since canceled) had not delighted everyone.
Jack Sparrow helps a sick child
Failing to see Johnny Depp embody a sixth time Jack Sparrow in a feature film, we could see him in his costume on a Youtube video. A little sketch he put together to send a message to a young boy named Kori. Eleven-year-old, this one runs the Youtube channel Kraken The Box and is a huge Jack Sparrow fan. Above all, the child has fragile health and, as explained by the Dailymailhe has already suffered “two heart transplants and would be in palliative care“. His wish then would be to gain as many subscribers as possible, while he can.
Johnny Depp therefore came to give him a hand in a touching video. At least, by his intention. Because the actor does not appear in the best of his form and his speech is hardly audible. We understand all the same that he wishes “Captain Kori” good luck and send him all his respect and love.
This video is not the only one shared by Kori. Only two days later, the young boy posted a second video, after seeing his number of subscribers skyrocket. Inside, Kori was able speak directly with Johnny Depp by phone. Here again, the actor sets up a whole staging and fully plays his role of Jack Sparrow. Maybe a little too much.
Once again, we will simply retain the attention and the joy given to this child. And while Johnny Depp invites people to subscribe to Kori’s channel, it is specified at the end of the video that part 2 of their conversation will be posted when he reaches 200,000. You can help him by subscribing to his channel here.
