During the scandalous proceedings with Amber Heard, Johnny Depp was boycotted in Hollywood. They didn’t want to see him even in the roles he had already played. Therefore, the hope of fans that they would still see their idol, for example, in the iconic role of Jack Sparrow, melted before their eyes. The actor himself stated that he would not agree to this, even if he was offered “300 million dollars and a million alpacas.” But a miracle happened! Johnny Depp in the image of Jack Sparrow delighted the fans , and most importantly, his biggest fan, the 11-year-old boy Corey with severe heart disease. Corey dreamed of meeting his idol, and Depp fulfilled the boy’s cherished wish.
Johnny Depp in the image of Jack Sparrow fulfilled a childhood dream
No one can resist the charisma of Captain Jack Sparrow: neither a child nor an adult. Therefore, the cult character, as well as the pirate franchise as a whole, has enough fans among adults and children.
So 11-year-old Corey is crazy about Pirates of the Caribbean. His favorite character is Jack Sparrow played by Johnny Depp . And the boy likes the actor’s other roles, so much so that the boy considers Depp his main idol. It was with him that Corey dreamed of meeting him . The Make-A-Wish Foundation helped make a childhood dream come true. The organization tries to make seriously ill children at least a little happier. Unfortunately, Corey has serious heart disease.
Representatives of the fund contacted Johnny Depp and explained the situation. And the actor sincerely agreed to talk with Corey . Moreover, Johnny even dressed up as Jack Sparrow for the boy, although he swore that this would never happen.
“I’m your number one fan, Captain Corey.”
Johnny Depp recorded a message to the boy, in which he addressed him as “Captain Corey.” The actor not only dressed up as Jack Sparrow, but also acted like this character . Jack may be lying, but we have no doubt about the sincerity of Depp’s words in the video. “I’m your number one fan, Captain Corey ,” Johnny said in the address.
By the way, 11-year-old Corey is trying his hand at blogging . Depp supported his endeavors and even promised to subscribe to his channel. After publishing a video with Depp on the channel, Corey received a significant increase in subscribers. The boy promised that he would post more videos when the number of followers reaches 200 thousand. It is worth noting that there are already more of them. Currently, Corey’s channel is followed by 210 thousand users.
Johnny did not limit himself to just a video message to the boy. He personally spoke with Corey via video call . That was incredible. The boy laughed sincerely when Depp, who entered the role of Jack Sparrow, tried to understand where Corey’s voice was coming from.
Johnny did a great job. He not only made his little fan happy, but also touched fans around the world with his act.
