"Two years had gone by of constant worldwide talk about me being this wife beater... The #MeToo movement was in full swing at that point," he said.

The actor noted that Disney did not remove the character of Captain Jack altogether, but suggested it simply did not want to be involved with him in the future, as he said: "They didn’t remove my character from the rides. They didn’t stop selling dolls of Captain Jack Sparrow. They didn’t stop selling anything. They just didn’t want there to be something trailing behind me that they’d find,” as reported by Unlaid. 

Depp's final Pirates of the Caribbean film, Salazar's Revenge, was released in 2017.
