That’s a photo of Johnny Depp waving to a wildly cheering crowd at the international premiere of his new film, PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: AT WORLD’S END, on Wednesday evening, May 23rd. Disney held the premiere–an intimate affair for 5,000 guests–at the giant Nippon Budokan arena, a venue best known for its famous rock concerts. The excited fans were treated to the sight of Johnny, Orlando Bloom, Geoffrey Rush, Chow Yun Fat, Bill Nighy, director Gore Verbinski, and producer Jerry Bruckheimer on stage together, chatting with the crowd. You can read about the premiere on the Zone’s News & Views forum, including play-by-play from the webcast while it took place, with many screencaps provided by Zoners who were watching the event live. Many thanks to everyone who contributed news, screencaps, and in-person accounts from the premiere–we are in your debt!
