While Johnny Depp has played a few iconic characters in his nearly four decades-long acting career, there is perhaps none as beloved as Captain Jack Sparrow, one of the main characters in Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean franchise.

When it comes to the world of Star Wars, it would seem that no news is good news, as Rian Johnson recently confirmed that he is still planning to develop a trilogy of movies for Lucasfilm, but that there is still no clear timeline for those projects moving forward. During last December’s Investor Days from The Walt Disney Company, a variety of projects were confirmed for the studio, with the absence of any comments regarding Johnson’s previously announced films leading many to believe they had been quietly scrapped, only for him to recently confirm that’s not the case, even if there’s no schedule for those films to progress....
