Johnny Depp Was Almost Paid $22.5M For Pirates of the Caribbean 6 Return
Considering the fact that the actor has become synonymous with the franchise, it makes sense that his paycheck to return for yet another sequel would be so substantial. Although the actors around him, including Keira Knightley, Orlando Bloom, and Penélope Cruz, have come and gone, Depp’s Sparrow has been the backbone of the series. Indeed, he is such an inextricable part of the franchise that an animatronic based on Jack Sparrow using Depp’s likeness has been built into the original theme park rides.
It seems reasonable to presume that Pirates of the Caribbean 6 would have received a budget of around $300 million with Depp’s participation, considering his salary and the budgets of the previous entries. However, the fact that Depp was removed from the film likely impacted its prospects as well as his. Without him, producers would likely have much less confidence in the project’s performance and possibly slashed its budget as a result, perhaps preventing it from ever getting made in the first place.
