Jerry Bruckheimer Reveals Disney's initial Reaction to Johnny Depp in 'Pirates of the Caribbean'

Jerry Bruckheimer, the film producer behind franchises like Top Gun, Bad Boys, and Pirates of the Caribbean, talks about the first time Disney execs saw Johnny Deppplaying the iconic pirate character Jack Sparrow. The captain seeking to recover his ship was inspired by a combination of rock artist Keith Richards and variations of Looney Tunes animated characters, but it was a rendition that Disney's bosses did not quite get at the beginning. Can you really imagine Jack Sparrow not being the Jack Sparrow we have all come to love?
