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.
He played Captain Jack Sparrow's father who was Captain Teague.
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.
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.
Johnny said that Captain Jack was a combination of Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones and Disney's Pepe Le Pew. LOL Johnny said he wasn't worried about Pepe's reaction, but wasn't sure about Keith's reaction. Richards went on to appear in the "Pirates" movies and played Sparrow's father, Captain Teague.
Jack Sparrow's father, Captain Teague, was played by Rolling Stones lead guitarist Keith Richards in "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End" (2007). Johnny Depp, who plays Sparrow in the "Pirates" series, has acknowledged that he based his character's voice and mannerisms on Richards.
Yes, he had Keith Richards for a father.

I think that Jack Sparrows father use to be a pirate king but when he got older he "retired" and became the keeper of the pirate code.
