Johnny Depp Reveals The Name Of Next “POTC” Flick In Costume

Superstar celeb dad Johnny Depp surprised the audience at Disney’s D23 Expo last weekend by sailing on to the stage in a replica of The Black Pearl, decked out as his legendary alter ego Captain Jack Sparrow. The purpose: announce the name of the latest installment of the Pirates series Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.
Honestly, I’m not real keen on the name, but they can do just about anything wrong at this point, as long as Depp is in the movie, it’s as good as gold.
As weird as it seems, Johnny Depp seems to be genuinely enthused to play Captain Jack Sparrow for the 4th time. For $64 million, I guess JD should be pretty enthusiastic.
Still, it strikes me as kinda odd that Depp would be willing to do cheese-ball publicity stunts for the latest POTC movie—it doesn’t even open until 2011. He must just love doing children’s movies that much.
At this point, a pretty huge chunk of Johnny’s work is kid-friendly. Apparently, that’s one of the biggest reasons he continues to play Capt. Sparrow—because his son Jack, 5, loves the character.
