Johnny Depp thinks it's 'a good thing' he is no longer in 'Pirates of the Caribbean'
'Pirates of the Caribbean' has survived the losses of Orlando Bloom and Kiera Knightley, and Disney believes the same will hold true for Johnny Depp as it plans a reboot
'Pirates of the Caribbean' has been one of the most iconic franchises of the 21st century, arguably up there with the likes of 'Harry Potter,' 'Fast and the Furious,' 'Toy Story' et al. So, when it was announced that Disney was considering rebooting the franchise without lead actor Johnny Depp — who has quite possibly become synonymous with Captain Jack Sparrow — the reaction was one of surprise.
While there was little to write home about the last two installments of the 'Pirates of the Caribbean,' Depp was one of the few redeeming factors.
