Depp reportedly based the role on Keith Richards of the band Rolling Stones. annanova.com quotes the actor, who lives in France with long-time companion and singer Vanessa Paradis, as saying, "I went through a decompression period after the first film. If you're really connected with a character, you always do to some degree.

"You miss the guy. You miss being that person. The only thing that was in the back of my mind was the hope that there would be a sequel some day, so that I could meet him again."

Sure, the rest of the world can't wait to see him again as Jack Sparrow.
