Johnny Depp has starred across five Pirates of the Caribbean movies to date, but following recent controversies, his future in Disney’s blockbuster franchise has been uncertain. Most recently the 57-year-old was asked to resign from the Fantastic Beasts movies after losing his libel trial, in which he strongly denies domestic abuse allegations. While even a cameo in the upcoming Margot Robbie-led Pirates spin-off is now looking even less likely.

The deputy, Kevin McNally, a 27-year veteran, is being terminated, the sheriff said in a statement.
The incident happened Nov. 24.
Police responded to a report of a stolen vehicle at WoodSpring Suites in Rochester Hills.
The victim told police that she was in her vehicle when a woman attacked her. The attacker managed to get into the driver’s seat and then did “burn outs” in the parking lot of the nearby Meijer store, police said.
Ellis continued: “I remember while filming one day, without me knowing during a scene, he had [his bodyguard] Jerry Judge move my chair next to his.”
“It was a subtle way of him bringing me in to get to know me, just to have a conversation. [He is] so down to earth.”
The 52-year-old also mentioned how his and Depp’s kids went to the same school and pointed out that the star surrounded himself with really good people.
He said of Depp’s inner circle: “They were really wonderful people, as were those around him.”
