He played Captain Jack Sparrow's father who was Captain Teague.
Captain Teague, who is Jack Sparrow's father
The gentleman that played Captain Jack Sparrow's father was none other than Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones. Richards was Depp's inspiration (and Pepe LePue) for the Jack Sparrow character, so it was only fitting that he play Sparrow's father in the third installment of the Pirates movies.
He was said to have based his performance on the character of Keith Richards, guitarist from The Rolling Stones. In the third Pirates film, Keith Richards made a cameo appearance as Jack Sparrow's father.
One of his inspirations for the role of Jack Sparrow was The Rolling Stones' Keith Richards. In an early interview he said he tried to combine Keith Richards with Dudley Moore's character 'Arthur'. Any chance you have a citation to this interview? Thanks Yonatan.
because Keith Richards is a butt pirate.
Yes his name is Captain T. No that's his Dad. Jack Sparrow has 2 Siblings of known lore. in POTC 3 you meet his first brohter who made the Pirates Code. Jack calls him bro and asks him "How's Mum?" and he lifts up a shrunken head. It sounds like in POTC 4 Jack sparrow is going to have another sibling played by Russell Brand
