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.
