Johnny Depp shows off Jack Sparrow character to fans outside Virginia Courthouse

The final week of testimony at the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard trial will resume on Monday (May 23).


Johnny Depp fans want to see him play the iconic role of Captain Jack Sparrow once again.

On Wednesday, fans gathered outside the Virginia Courthouse and expressed their love for the actor - shouting that they were missing his character.

The fan-made video was posted to Twitter after the day's proceedings ended in a multimillion-dollar defamation lawsuit filed by Depp against ex-wife Amber Heard.

The video showed fans cheering for Depp outside Fairfax County Circuit Court, who was seen walking into his car. At one point, a fan exclaimed, "You will always be Captain Jack Sparrow!"

"He's still somewhere around," Depp, 58, replied in the famous British accent of his character. "I see him over and over again."

"He shows up again and again," Depp added, shaking hands and smiling from his car.

Depp, who played the lead role of Captain Jack Sparrow in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise for five films, was officially dropped from the planned reboot in 2018 — days after Heard's controversial op-ed was published.

Depp has sued Heard for $50m for allegedly abusing her in a 2018 op-ed for The Washington Post. The Rum Diaries actor claimed that the article influenced his career in Hollywood.
