Johnny Depp visited the Meridian School in London today, almost completely unannounced. Thanks to the request of a 9 year old student, Johnny Depp walked into an all-school assembly, dressed as the iconic pirate. In the end, the student body did not stage a mutiny but did enjoy the unexpected pirate visit.
Jack Sparrow letter gets out to Johnny Depp
Johnny Depp plays the character Jack Sparrow in “Pirates of the Caribbean” which led nine-year old Beatrice Delap to write a letter for Jack Sparrow. She asked for help from Sparrow at school with mutiny. Depp decided to act on the letter that he received. Since Depp had been already near London, filming the newest “Pirates of the Caribbean” movie, it was easy to do. He went to the southeast London school with some of the rest of the crew.
Ten minutes notice for Johnny Depp’s visit
Johnny Depp decided last minute that he was going to visit the school when he had been already dressed up in his Jack Sparrow outfit. The school had been given a 10 minute notice that Depp and a few other actors would be showing up in their pirate outfits. The Meridian School had to make quick arrangements. They were gathered into an assembly quickly. Into the assembly walked Captain Jack Sparrow and his cohorts. All the students were really excited to see the surprise guest walking in.
There was not any real mutiny Meridian
Captain Jack was written to in hopes that mutiny would end. There wasn’t any actual mutiny though. Instead, Jack Sparrow sang a pirate song and danced along with the students. Beatrice Delap was asked to the front by Johnny Depp. Sparrow/Depp didn’t encourage the rebellion by the girl. Instead, he said, “Maybe we shouldn’t mutiny today because you will find police outside monitoring me.” Depp really has two children. He took pictures with all of of the kids after giving a big hug to Delap.
