Johnny Depp won't be returning to reprise his role as the iconic Captain Jack Sparrow anytime soon, a representative of the actor said. The latest update quashes all the rumored reports of Disney offering the actor a whopping $300 million to return to the franchise. However, the rep called it "made up". 

Earlier, Depp was asked: “If Disney came to you with $300m dollars and a million alpacas, nothing on this earth would get you to go back and work with Disney on a Pirates of the Caribbean film?” To which, he responded by saying "that is true", per The Independent. The 59-year-old has played the fan-favorite character in five of the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' movies. There have been online petitions signed calling for the actor to return as Sparrow. Fans took to Twitter to share their two cents on the reports, and a segment of them still slammed Disney.
