Have not watched either movie, but got it right! I'm a big fan of Keith Richards and just figured he would be the one character to be in a pirate movie! Lol
I think I may have to go back and watch these movies.🙄👍

So many of the questions start with 'What' (country, movie, actor, etc). This is incorrect, particularly so if it's a question about grammar! It should be Which? Just saying...

Keith taught Johnny how to do a Cockney accent.

As well as Keith, Paul Mc carthy played in one. He didn’t want to be left out.

Sometimes I get lucky and guess correctly.

Pirates League? They were called the Brethren Court.
Later, Paul McCartney appeared in the 5th film as Jack's Uncle.

It was a good tribute to Depp's inspiration. And Richards turned out to be a very good actor!
