<P> Depp's return in Dead Man's Chest was the first time he had ever made a sequel . Drew McWeeny wrote, "Remember how cool Han Solo was in Star Wars the first time you saw it? And then remember how much cooler he seemed when Empire came out? This is that big a jump ." Depp received an MTV Movie Award and a Teen Choice Award for Dead Man's Chest, and was nominated for an Empire Award and another Golden Globe . For his performance in At World's End, Depp won an MTV Movie Award for Best Comedic Performance, as well as a People's Choice Award, a Kids' Choice Award, and another Teen Choice Award . He has signed on to reprise the role for future sequels . </P> <P> Depp wears a dreadlock wig in a rock - and - roll approach to a pirate aesthetic . He wears a red bandanna and numerous objects in his hair, influenced by Keith Richards' habit of collecting souvenirs from his travels; Sparrow's decorations include his "piece of eight". Sparrow wears kohl around his eyes, which was inspired by Depp's study of nomads, whom he compared to pirates, and he wore contacts that acted as sunglasses . Sparrow has several gold teeth, two of which belong to Depp, although they were applied during filming . Depp initially forgot to have them removed after shooting The Curse of the Black Pearl, and wore them throughout the shooting of the sequels . Like all aspects of Depp's performance, Disney initially expressed great concern over Depp's teeth . Sparrow wears his goatee in two braids . Initially wire was used in them, but the wires were abandoned because they made the braids stick up when Depp lay down . Sparrow has numerous tattoos, and has been branded a pirate on his right arm by Cutler Beckett, underneath a tattoo of a sparrow . </P> <P> Depp collaborated with costume designer Penny Rose on his character's appearance, handpicking a tricorne as Sparrow's signature leather hat; to make Sparrow's unique, the other characters did not wear leather hats . A rubber version was used for the scene in Dead Man's Chest when the hat floats on water . Depp liked to stick to one costume, wearing one lightweight silk tweed frock coat throughout the series, and he had to be coaxed out of wearing his boots for a version without a sole or heel in beach scenes . The official line is that none of the costumes from The Curse of the Black Pearl survived, which allowed the opportunity to create tougher linen shirts for stunts . However, one remains which has been displayed in an exhibition of screen costumes in Worcester, England . It was a nightmare for Rose to track down the same makers of Sparrow's sash in Turkey . Rose did not want to silkscreen it, as the homewoven piece had the correct worn feel . Sparrow wears an additional belt in the sequels, because Depp liked a new buckle which did not fit with the original piece . </P> <P> Sparrow's weapons are genuine 18th century pieces: his sword dates to the 1740s and his pistol is from the 1760s . Both were made in London . Depp used two pistols on set, one of rubber . Both survived production of the first film . Sparrow's magic compass also survived into the sequels, though director Gore Verbinski had a red arrow added to the dial as it became a more prominent prop . As it does not act like a normal compass, a magnet was used to make it spin . Sparrow wears four rings, two of which belong to Depp . Depp bought the green ring in 1989 and the gold ring is a replica of a 2400 - year - old ring Depp gave to the crew, though the original was later stolen . The other two are props to which Depp gave backstories: the gold - and - black ring is stolen from a Spanish widow Sparrow seduced and the green dragon ring recalls his adventures in the Far East . Among Depp's additional ideas was the necklace made of human toes that Sparrow wears as the Pelegosto prepare to eat him, and the sceptre was based on one a friend of Depp's owned . </P>
