Meanwhile, in court, Deep claimed that he would never return to the Pirates franchise. Under cross-examination from Aquaman star Heard's lawyer Ben Rottenborn, Depp opened up about how Hollywood has 'boycotted' him. When the lawyer asked, "The fact is, Mr. Depp, if Disney came to you with $300 million and a million alpacas, nothing on this earth would get you to go back and work with Disney on a Pirates of the Caribbean film? Correct?" Depp replied, "That is true, Mr. Rottenborn."
