Johnny Depp made a surprise appearance for “Pirates of the Caribbean” riders

“Pirates of the Caribbean” Part 5, which is a movie that was actually made, hits theaters on May 26. To promote he upcoming flick, star Johnny Depp took over for the animatronic of his Captain Jack Sparrow character on the ride, much to the surprise of guests. At least I think it was him. It’s either that or Disney Imagineers are getting really, really good at their jobs.

It's not everyday that you come to Disneyland and see Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow in the pirates attraction surprising fans and having their reactions recorded lol. ???? Due to the popularity of this video and comments, we can't respond but We give our consent to repost with credit to those of you asking. ???? To everyone else asking, this wasn't a known event. It was a surprise and yes Johnny Depp really did dress up as Captain Jack Sparrow and was talking to guests. They were filming boats interacting with him and we are thinking it's new promo for the new Pirates of the Caribbean – Dead Men Tell No Tales film which is coming out May 26, 2017. This video was filmed Wednesday 4/26/17 °o° Thank you @evil_queen ❤️???????????? #PiratesOfTheCaribbean #POTC #DeadmanTellNoTales #JohnnyDepp #JackSparrow #CaptainJackSparrow #Pirates #Disney #DisneyParks #DisneyGram #Disneyland #DisneylandResort #DL #DLR #HappiestPlaceOnEarth #DisneySide #GetHappier #DisneylandAnnualPass #AnnualPass #AP #DisneylandCastMember #CastMember #CM #TheDisneylandTwins
