Last week, Johnny Depp paid an unexpected visit to fans at Disneyland, showing up in his full Captain Jack Sparrow costume at the iconic Pirates of the Caribbean ride. A number of fans shared videos of the actor entertaining tourists. But today we have an official video from Disney, which shows some of the behind-the-scenes preparations for Johnny Depp's big surprise. If that wasn't enough, we also have a new IMAX poster, TV trailer and photos of the new Funko Pop toys featuring Captain Jack Sparrow, Captain Salazar and Will Turner.
This video debuted on Disney Movie Trailers YouTube channel, which shows several groups of unsuspecting fans exploring their surroundings while on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, with Johnny Depp pretending to be an animatronic robot before springing to life and startling his adoring patrons, many of whom were recording video of the encounter on their cell phones. At one point, Captain Jack Sparrow even asked one group if the sword makes his "bum" look big, with a girl answering "Yes," which got Captain Jack to smile and tell her, "You're naughty." The video ends with an army of fans waiting outside the entrance for the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, with Johnny Depp addressing them in full costume.
Funko also unveiled its new Pop Vinyl figures which features two different versions of Captain Jack Sparrow, and two versions of the new villain Captain Salazar, played by Javier Bardem, along with Will Turner (Orlando Bloom). The Captain Salazar chase variant, Ghost Salazar, is a 1-in-6 rarity! You can also collect weathered gold Jack Sparrow, available exclusively at Hot Topic! These toys will be available this June although no pricing details were given at this time.
Johnny Depp returns to the big screen as the iconic, swashbuckling anti-hero Jack Sparrow in the all new Pirates movie. The rip-roaring adventure finds down-on-his-luck Captain Jack feeling the winds of ill-fortune blowing strongly his way when deadly ghost sailors, led by the terrifying Captain Salazer (Javier Bardem), escape from the Devil's Triangle bent on killing every pirate at sea, notably Jack. This new TV trailer, which debuted on the movie's official Twitter, reveals that Captain Salazar was cursed by Jack Sparrow years ago, and he's been trying to get his revenge ever since.
Jack's only hope of survival lies in the legendary Trident of Poseidon, but to find it he must forge an uneasy alliance with Carina Smyth (Kaya Scodelario), a brilliant and beautiful astronomer, and Henry (Brenton Thwaites), a headstrong young sailor in the Royal Navy. At the helm of the Dying Gull, his pitifull small and shabby ship, Captain Jack seeks not only to reverse his recent spate of ill fortune, but to save his very life from the most formidable and malicious foe he has never faced. The supporting cast is rounded out by Kevin R. McNally as Joshamee Gibbs, Golshifteh Farahani as Shansa, David Wenham as Scarfield, Stephen Graham as Scrum and Geoffrey Rush as Captain Hector Barbossa. Take a look at these new videos and photos for Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales below.

“spending disorder” eh? I didn’t realize Depp was in Congress.
Not knowing much about Johnny Depp, I did a quick search of his name. All the top headlines are saying he doesn’t memorize his lines, but keeps a guy on retainer to feed them to him through an earbud, similar to Hillary I guess. Some actress replied he wears an earbud so he can listen to music while he acts, “He has an earbud. That’s why he’s so great.”
He’s involved in some nasty lawsuits, saying he can’t control his spending. Something like a 14 homes, 45 cars, 70 collectible guitars, and enough Hollywood memorabilia to fill a dozen storage lockers. Since he has filed a counter-suit, somebody leaked that he’s made many “hush money settlements” and that he isn’t honest.
I guess I’m caught up on all the latest about Mr Depp and the latest Pirate movie he’s in. Looking at the photos of him in those stories, his face looks rather puffy and dull. Something’s wrong with him physically, imho, adiction?
I know I’m in the minority here, but to me it’s no surprise that the glorification of antisocial scum has wound up as a big Disney franchise.
I do love that ride! How do the people know that it wasn’t just an actor dressed up like Johnny Depp dressed up like Jack sparrow?
It has never been about the plot.
“Looking at the photos of him in those stories, his face looks rather puffy and dull. Something’s wrong with him physically, imho, adiction?”
Wasn’t there a story out about his spending habits when he was getting divorced?
I seem to remember him spending A LOT of money on high dollar wine.
Alcoholic maybe?
He needs to by another 3 million dollar cannon.
Apparently he put a lot of his money into houses, so its not like he’s completely insane.
They need to resurrect the franchise after the last one. It was horrible. If they can’t pull it off, let it die.
It’s piracy to pay hard earned money to see any Johnny Depp flop.
It’s magic?
They finally make his acting better?
I was just saying that to my wife. The guy is a virtuoso actor but like a lot of virtuosos he’s whack.
Seems likely.
I am not a big fan of the pirate movies but that was worth a 2 minute look. JD is pretty funny.
Yes, I thought it was an Oscar worthy performance.
they were ‘bout pirates, matey
He was also great In “Dead Man”. The movie had a great cast including Robert Mitchum,John Hurt,Iggy Pop(believe it or not), as well as others.
