JOHNNY Depp may have lampooned Rolling Stone Keith Richards’ drug-addled manner when he played Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean, but the two celebrities are now “good buddies”. by ALLAN HALL – Tue 16 Aug 2005.
Richards, 61, who is to take the part of Sparrow’s father in a sequel to the film, said they had teamed up in pirate costumes to amuse his grandchildren.
Depp previously revealed that he had copied Richards’ body language for his role in Pirates of the Caribbean.
But Richards appears to have enjoyed the joke and said Depp was now a firm friend. “Johnny is a good buddy,” he said.
“Recently, he visited me with a set of Disney pirate costumes and we disguised ourselves one afternoon and had a hell of a fun time. One of my grandkids thinks I am full-time pirate.”
