Where Johnny Depp's Relationship With Disney Stands, Post-Defamation Trial

With more than 330 million viewers on the Law Crime Network alone, the Johnny Depp vs. Amber Heard trial was the trial watched around the world.

Everyone tuned in to find out all the sordid – and kinda gross – details about what went down between Depp, who might be most famously known for his role as Captain Jack Sparrow, and Heard, whose career skyrocketed after playing Aquamans leading lady.

After plenty of shady courtroom comments, jaw-dropping audio recordings, and stunning security cam footage, the judge ultimately ruled in Depps favor. Heard was ordered to pay more than 10 million to the Pirates of the Caribbean star for defamation

Still, some of the comments made by Depp and Heard while they were on the witness stand have left fans with many questions. One of the most pressing questions is whether Depp, whose name has been cleared, will be back onboard with Disney to return to his role as the swashbuckling, accident-prone pirate.

Depp famously vowed to never work with Disney again because, in his words, he was labeled as guilty until proven innocent by the company when Heards accusations of abuse came out. But not everyone is convinced Depps statement is one hell continue to stick by.

There were rumors floating around that Johnny Depp would be returning to his role as the infamous pirate captain, but a rep for the actor quickly shot those rumors down as false, according to People.

Jerry Bruckheimer, the producer of the Pirates franchise, has also verified Depps claim, saying the actor did indeed step away from the multi-billion dollar company. He stated that the future is yet to be decided on whether or not Depp will reprise his role as Jack Sparrow

There are others who think the lure of a hefty paycheck might be enough to draw the actor back on the Pirates set. A source told People that the idea of Depp turning down a hypothetical 300 million check from Disney, which Depp declared he would do while on the stand, wont be feasible for the Fantastic Beasts star.

I dont believe that based on his money troubles, especially given Pirates is a billion-dollar global franchise, the source claimed. Another source close to the actor also claimed that Depp could potentially return to the franchise if asked. Anything is possible, the insider said. If its the right project, hell do it.
