Davy Jones' Epic Comeback: Will He Return in Pirates 6?

A talented artist on Instagram, combi_nzambi, has created stunning fan art of Davy Jones from Pirates of the Caribbean. Davy Jones, a legendary character who was first mentioned in The Curse of the Black Pearl, later became Jack Sparrow's archnemesis in Dead Man's Chest and At World's End. As the captain of the Flying Dutchman, Davy Jones is part squid and part crab, and collects the souls of dead or dying sailors to serve aboard his ship for a sentence of 100 years. The artist has recreated this iconic character with incredible attention to detail, making for a beautiful tribute to the film series.

The fan art showcases the character's distinctive features, such as his octopus tentacle beard, pirate hat, and weathered appearance, which are highlighted by the presence of barnacles and seaweed. The artist has created two panels, one in black and white and the other in color, to depict these elements in a visually striking manner.

Despite Davy Jones's demise in At World's End, Pirates of the Caribbean 5's post-credits scene hints at his potential return. Will sees a shadow resembling Davy Jones, though he assumes it to be a nightmare. However, the barnacles and small puddle of seawater on the floor suggest that Davy Jones has been resurrected. While the post-credits scene sets up the return of Davy Jones in Pirates of the Caribbean 6, the franchise's future is uncertain following Johnny Depp's departure.

Disney is working on two reboots for Pirates of the Caribbean. One is being written by Ted Elliott and Craig Mazin, while the other is a female-led spinoff with Margot Robbie starring and Christina Hodson writing the script. Jerry Bruckheimer has stated that the former project is moving forward first, but it's uncertain if it will continue the previous story or start fresh. Regardless, it's crucial for the franchise's most iconic villain, Davy Jones, to make a comeback in Pirates of the Caribbean 6.
