Johnny Depp recently made a touching visit to a children’s ward in Spain, dressed as his famous character Captain Jack Sparrow. The role, which Depp is perhaps best known for, has long been beloved by fans, and this time he donned the costume to surprise young patients at Donostia University Hospital in San Sebastian.Depp had been in Spain promoting a new film he directed, but while in the country, he decided to take time out of his schedule for this special visit. It happened on September 26, as confirmed by social media posts shared by the hospital. After attending the San Sebastian Film Festival, Depp left the event and changed into the pirate costume before heading over to the hospital.
Once there, he spent time with the children in the pediatric ward, staying in character throughout his visit. According to reports from the Spanish newspaper El Diario Vasco, Depp never broke his Jack Sparrow persona, delighting the children with his playful antics.Depp is in Spain to promote his new film at the San Sebastian Film FestivalJB Lacroix/WireImage

The hospital later took to Twitter to publicly thank the actor for his visit. In a message posted in Spanish, they wrote:”From Osakidetza, and especially from all the personnel at the Donostia University Hospital, we would like to send infinite gratitude to Johnny Depp for his time, his support, and his energy, and shoutout to @sansebastianfes for having facilitated this visit.”During his time there, Depp interacted with the patients, helping to lift their spirits.

The hospital’s statement shared more about how much his visit meant to everyone involved. “They have shared laughs and anecdotes, and he has helped them forget for a few minutes the difficulties they are going through at the moment.”It was a gift that brought joy to patients, families, nursing professionals, doctors, and all the staff who were working on the ward at the time.”This sentiment was echoed in the excitement expressed by everyone who had the chance to meet him.

Depp has played Captain Jack Sparrow in four Pirates of the Caribbean films, a role that has become iconic over the years. The first movie, Curse of the Black Pearl, was released in 2003, and the latest, Dead Men Tell No Tales—also known as Salazar’s Revenge—came out in 2017. Depp’s portrayal of the quirky pirate has drawn widespread praise and has become one of the most memorable characters in modern cinema.

Interestingly, Depp based Captain Jack’s eccentric mannerisms on a blend of Bugs Bunny from Looney Tunes and Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards, which gave the character a unique flair.

In Spain, Depp had been promoting his newest film, Modi – Three Days on the Wing of Madness, which tells the story of Italian artist Amedeo Modigliani. The title might sound a bit unusual, but it has no connection to the Indian Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, despite any confusion the name might cause.

Depp’s work on the film reflects his continued interest in the arts, both as an actor and a director.

Meanwhile, Depp’s ex-wife, Amber Heard, is also living in Spain. Heard has made it clear that she’s focused on her new life there.

When asked by reporters about her ex-husband’s visit, she responded simply, stating: “I’m living here in Madrid, I love Spain. I’m very lucky to be here, and regarding my past, I don’t feel like thinking or talking about it, because I’m happy and in peace.”

Heard has moved on from the highly publicized legal battles she and Depp faced, and it seems she is now embracing her new life in Europe.

Following the San Sebastian Film Festival, Depp is scheduled to return to the United States.

According to PEOPLE, he will be heading to New York, where he is set to open an art exhibition on October 4.

This exhibition will showcase Depp’s artistic talents beyond his film work, further highlighting the many creative projects he’s been involved in over the years.

The visit to the children’s hospital may have been just a small part of his trip to Spain, but it left a lasting impression on the children, staff, and everyone else who experienced it.

Depp’s willingness to take the time to make a difference for these young patients shows the kind of impact a simple gesture can have, especially when it comes from someone as beloved as Captain Jack Sparrow.
