It was revealed that Depp refused to re-enact "Pirates of the Caribbean", and Disney's offer of 140 million was useless, and the reason was exposed
According to foreign media reports on June 9, Johnny Depp refused to star in "Pirates of the Caribbean" again because Disney publicly abandoned him when he and his ex-wife broke out in a lawsuit.
According to the news, it is rumored that Disney offered a salary of 20 million US dollars (about 142 million yuan) to invite Depp to play the role of Captain Jack again, but Depp refused, he was angry at Disney's blind abandonment of himself, and completely gave up his plan to return to Disney, "Pirates of the Caribbean 5: Death Without Proof" will be the last.
It is reported that Depp and his ex-wife Amber Heard officially divorced in 2017, she accused Depp of domestic violence, resulting in the complete bankruptcy of the man's acting career and was asked to resign from Harry Potter's "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" series.
The lawsuit between the two has been fought for four or five years, and although Depp is still acting, his reputation is not as good as before, and he can only make small-cost movies.
Last June, Depp won the lawsuit, and his ex-wife was awarded $15 million in damages, but because the punitive damages were capped at $350,000, Depp was only given $10 million in compensatory damages and $350,000 in punitive damages.
However, because Depp's lawyer claimed that Amber Heard had created an "abuse scam", he was asked to pay the woman $2 million.
After the lawsuit was reversed, the 60-year-old Depp regained the respect of the industry, and at the Cannes Film Festival last month, Depp was praised by the stars, and the organizers even let him take photos with fans at the scene to give a full face.
Depp neglected to take care of it after being caught up in the lawsuit, and a big yellow tooth was spit on.
In contrast, Amber Heard, who ran to Spain to take shelter, has won the support of many fans because of his easy-going image.
Insiders revealed that Depp's "blockbuster era" has passed, he has lost interest in Hollywood, basically will not appear in big productions, his mind is on painting and music production, may take on some small-cost films, the point is that Depp seems to be in love with France, and has been living in France in recent years.
Regarding his love life, Depp was rumored to be dating Joelle Rich, a lawyer 22 years younger, who had sued him in the UK and later appeared in court many times.
The woman is said to have two children who broke down her relationship with her husband and is filing for divorce.
However, it was revealed in November last year that the two had broken up, and the relationship "saw the light and died".
Depp originally said that he would star in the sixth "Pirates of the Caribbean", saying that the Disney screenwriter was writing, but through a lawsuit, he saw the world's warmth and coldness, even if the salary of 140 million, he would not bow his head.
