Captain Jack Sparrow Surprises Students Looking to Mutiny Against Teachers Dan Koelsch, October 9, 2010 Captain Jack Sparrow took a slight detour in his sails to the farthest reaches of Earth. Johnny Depp, star of Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, stopped by a primary school in England as the famed Captain after nine-year-old Beatrice wrote to Jack asking him to help them mutiny against their teachers. While Depp did oblige by coming in character, he humorously talked about dental hygiene instead. Watch a user video of the event after the break. Depp is currently working on next year’s Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, though it is unclear if Disney was behind this special appearance at all.
