Davy Jones is a fictional character in the Pirates of the Caribbean film series, portrayed by Bill Nighy.

He is first mentioned in The Curse of the Black Pearl, appears as one of the main antagonists in Dead Man's Chest and At World's End, and makes a cameo appearance in Dead Men Tell No Tales. Once a mortal pirate, Davy Jones is the tyrannical captain of the Flying Dutchman (based on the ghost ship of the same name), the dark lord of the Seven Seas and also Jack Sparrow's and Will Turner's archenemy.

The computer-generated imagery used to complete Jones was named by Entertainment Weekly as the tenth favorite computer-generated film character in film history, behind King Kong in 2007.
