Key Takeaways

  • Disney plans to start filming the next Pirates movie next year, with details and Depp’s return uncertain.
  • Franchise faced challenges without Depp; Margot Robbie-led female Pirates movie in development.

As a gamer with over two decades of experience under my belt, I can’t help but feel like I’ve been sailing the Seven Seas for far too long without a new Pirates of the Caribbean adventure. The news that Disney might be starting production on the next film next year has me more excited than a treasure chest full of gold doubloons!

It appears that the upcoming “Pirates of the Caribbean” film by Disney is scheduled to begin shooting next year. This announcement comes after many years of discussion regarding Disney’s intentions for the successful film series, and some fans have even urged Disney to scrap the next installment in the Pirates tale, which would be a significant move.

The Pirates of the Caribbean film series, renowned as one of cinema’s most financially successful franchises with global earnings exceeding $4.5 billion, has been relatively quiet since the release of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales in 2017. This silence comes amidst challenges faced by Disney, especially considering Johnny Depp, the leading star and key factor behind its massive success, found himself in a highly publicized legal dispute with his former spouse, Amber Heard.

What’s going on with this sixth Pirates Of The Caribbean movie?

As a dedicated gamer, I’m buzzing with excitement after hearing a scoop from industry insider Daniel Richtman about the potential return of the Pirates saga! While he didn’t spill all the beans, Richtman hinted that Disney might start filming the next installment next year. As for Captain Jack Sparrow, it’s anyone’s guess whether Johnny Depp will reprise his iconic role. The suspense is killing me! It’ll be intriguing to see how Disney shapes the future of this beloved franchise. Let’s face it, the Pirates series is too precious to gather dust in a corner.

Initially, there were whispers (later proven true) about Disney creating a pirate movie starring Margot Robbie. Later, it was speculated that this project might have been paused. However, in February, Richtman stated that Disney was contemplating restarting the project with Ayo Edebiri, who is known for her role in “The Bear,” as the main character in this upcoming pirate film.

After hearing from Jerry Bruckheimer, fans were reassured that the project led by Margot Robbie was on its way again. During an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Bruckheimer shared that Disney is eager to produce it. Intriguingly, he also expressed his hope for Johnny Depp’s return as Jack Sparrow in this revamped Pirates of the Caribbean film. This reboot, being penned by Jeff Nathanson, appears to be progressing quickly, with Bruckheimer stating that Nathanson has already solved the script. He further added, “He’s got an incredible third act. We just need to tidy up the first and second parts, and then we’ll be there. But he wrote a fantastic third act.

According to Jerry Bruckheimer, he’d prefer Johnny Depp to star in Pirates of the Caribbean 6.

Regarding the possibility of Depp reappearing in the remade Pirates film, Bruckheimer commented: “Since it’s a remake, if I had my way, he would be included.” He further stated: “I admire him. He’s a close friend. He’s an extraordinary talent, and he brings something unique to his roles. The character of Captain Jack wasn’t written that way; it was Depp adding his own twist by blending Pepé Le Pew and Keith Richards into the role.
