Over seven years have passed since Johnny Depp last played Captain Jack Sparrow on the big screen.
The 60-year-old star was set to return in Pirates of the Caribbean 6 as a fond farewell to his much-loved swashbuckler.
However, the Oscar-nominee was dropped from the franchise by Disney following domestic abuse allegations by his ex-wife Amber Heard, which he strongly denies.
Nevertheless, having won his US libel case against her, fans are hopeful he will bury the hatchet with the studio who reportedly want him back in a supporting role in Pirates 6.
A respected source tells Express.co.uk that the actor will be considering a return to the franchise and, in the meantime, fans are going wild for Pirates 6 concept posters and trailers.
The latest by artist Gaby Garza is a fan concept poster for Pirates of the Caribbean 6.
She wrote in the viral Facebook post: “NEW PIRATES!!! Embark on a gripping voyage of revenge with Johnny Depp in Pirates of the Caribbean: Jack’s Revenge. Witness Jack Sparrow’s relentless pursuit as he seeks vengeance against the Crown for the slaughter of his crew, including Gibbs.
“In a darker twist, join Jack as he sets sail to dismantle the governors one by one, leaving them plundered and shattered. Prepare for a thrilling and intense journey, coming to theaters this December 2024.”
Here’s hoping Depp and Disney are listening as fans really want his Jack Sparrow back.
