⚓ If Jack Sparrow Returns in Pirates of the Caribbean 6, Davy Jones Must Too
With Pirates of the Caribbean 6 in development, fans are buzzing with speculation — especially around the potential return of Johnny Depp as the beloved Captain Jack Sparrow. But if Disney truly wants to reignite the magic of the original trilogy, there’s one iconic character who must return alongside him: the fearsome Davy Jones.
Played by the brilliant Bill Nighy, Davy Jones is still considered one of the best villains in the Pirates franchise. With his tentacled face, tragic love story, and commanding presence, Jones was more than just a foe — he was unforgettable. His story deeply intertwined with Jack Sparrow’s, making a shared return both logical and satisfying.
Though Jones met his end in At World’s End, Pirates lore has always left room for resurrection. Jack Sparrow and Barbossa both cheated death. Why not Davy Jones? It’s entirely possible his soul was never truly freed — trapped by Calypso or lost between worlds. His unfinished business could be the perfect plot hook for Pirates 6.
Bringing Jack Sparrow and Davy Jones back together would not only thrill long-time fans, but also serve as a redemption arc for the franchise. With the last two films receiving lower scores (Dead Men Tell No Tales at 30% on Rotten Tomatoes), Pirates 6 needs a return to form — and that means embracing the heart and soul of what made the trilogy iconic.
Reuniting these two legendary characters could give fans the emotional, swashbuckling adventure they’ve been craving. After all, Pirates of the Caribbean is nothing without Jack Sparrow… and no true Jack Sparrow comeback is complete without his deadliest rival.
