Regardless of script or direction quality, great actors will elevate the quality of thier movie.Without johnny depp, pirates 3 and 4 would've sucked shit. Instead they were mediocre
Without RDJ, im2 and im3 would've been shit bad. Instead they were pretty good.
Hundreds of examples
In fact, by the third film Depp's character was one of the more irritating parts of the movie, as Depp's solid acting couldn't compensate for the shit writing of his character.
Much like how Hugo Weaving's excellent acting chops couldn't save Agent Smith in Matrix Revolutions.

The only source from which your concerns seem to stem is Momoa's appearance.As far as I'm concerned, the actor's appearance doesn't necessarily have to match the source material for the performance to be faithful. Momoa has the physicality and acting talent - if he can properly embody the character's persona, his slightly darker skin tone or ethnic features shouldn't be a problem.
Saying the choice of Momoa represents a digression from the source material is premature
For the adaptation to be faithful, it does, imo.
And it isn't just about his appearance, which I've already stated.

I didn't like Pirates 2 or 3 much, as I can't stand Knightley or too much of Bloom, but that's me.
