Johnny Depp to star in fourth Pirates of the Caribbean movie

Johnny Depp has agreed to reprise his role as Captain Jack Sparrow for a fourth installment of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise. His salary? $56 million. As in dollars. $56 million dollars. The sum eclipses Tom Hanks’ record payday 0f $50 million for Sony’s Da Vinci Code prequel, Angels & Demons. A source told the Daily Mail:

“It’s a lot of swag but they just can’t make another without Sparrow.” (Source)

Really? Johnny Depp’s worth $56 million. Seems to me like you could build a pretty robot that walks and talks like Johnny for a few million. Hell, I built a half-decent sexbot out of an old toaster and a jar of peanut bu  — you didn’t hear that . . . so . . . crazy weather lately or what?
