Disney is reportedly in talks with Johnny Depp to return to the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise as Captain Jack Sparrow, The News International said.

The entertainment media giant has even offered $300 million to the Edward Scissorhands star as they are looking forward to the actor’s forgiveness, claimed insider.

A source close to Depp told Poptonic that the studio "reached out” to Depp “prior to his defamation trial against Amber Heard and asked whether he would be interested in returning for another pirate film or two.”

"The deal is reportedly for Johnny Depp to return as Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean 6 and a spin-off Disney Plus series about the early life of the Captain of The Black Pearl,” the insider revealed.

“What I can tell you is that the studio has already penned up a draft for a film about Jack Sparrow so they are very hopeful that Johnny will forgive them and return as his iconic character,” the source added.

The outlet further shared that Disney is considering offering $300 million to Depp, however, the Hollywood star has not agreed to their proposal as of yet.

Previously, Depp said that he will not return to the Disney movie under any circumstances when he addressed the issue under oath at the bombshell libel case trial.
