‘An offer he can’t refuse’: Disney is Reportedly Ready To Pay Whopping $301M For Johnny Depp To Return in Pirates of the Caribbean

Hollywood Star Johnny Depp is finally getting a deal from Disney that is too good to be true! After Amber Heard posted an op-ed in the Washington Post, Depp started facing a major fall in his career. He tried harder but it was of no avail as his reputation was been damaged. Due to that, he stopped getting offers from filmmakers, he was also removed from Fantastic Beasts 3 and Pirates Of The Caribbean. Though, it is also said that his unprofessional behavior was the reason why Disney never promised to make him part of the upcoming franchise.

After winning the trial, he was awarded $10.35 million as damages but money was what he was least concerned about. According to Poptopic.com, Disney is preparing to apologize to Depp while also offering him a whopping $301 million to return on his iconic role of Jack Sparrow in Pirates Of The Caribbean.

Disney Offered $301 million to Johnny Depp

It seems that Disney is trying their level best to convince the actor, the insider told, “Disney is very interested in patching up their relationship with Johnny Depp. They reached out to the actor prior to his defamation trial against Amber Heard and asked whether he would be interested in returning for another Pirates film or two.”

Disney insider shared that the Hollywood star has been offered a huge amount that would be hard to turn down, “I know corporate sent him a gift basket with a very heartfelt letter, but I’m unsure how it was received. But what I can tell you is that the studio has already penned up a draft for a film about Jack Sparrow — so they are very hopeful that Johnny will forgive them and return as his iconic character,” the insider shared. He added, “Disney is prepping a deal for USD $301 million deal that will include a sizable donation to a charity of Depp’s choice. The deal is reportedly for Johnny Depp to return as Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean 6 and a spin-off Disney Plus series about the early life of the Captain of The Black Pearl.”

Is Disney’s Offering Similar To What The Actor Mentioned in The Trial?

Though this news is not confirmed whether the actor will accept the offer or not; if there is such a thing being talked about. That being said, the amount offered by Disney seems to be similar to what Johnny Depp mentioned in the defamation trial.

During the defamation trial, Amber Heard’s attorney, Elaine Bredehoft asked Depp, “Is Disney aware that Mr. Depp has testified under oath that he would not take another Pirates of the Caribbean franchise role for $300 million and a million alpacas?”

However, Depp has already clarified that he won’t return to Pirates Of The Caribbean even though he was paid a sum of something as huge as $301 million. Not only that, but producers have also shared that they have no plans to bring back the actor so far. This might be another one of the rumors circulating about the star.
