“We had an idea and we’ve been developing it for a long time, centuries ago, to make a story with women. We thought it might be nice, but I guess they don’t want to.”. With these statements, Margot Robbie clarified that Disney had completely lost interest in producing a “Pirates of the Caribbean” film led by a female lead.
Robbie, linked to the project from the beginning, ensured that his proposal was no longer on the table, something that now Jerry Bruckheimer wanted to underline.
The veteran producer of the saga, who last May claimed to be working on two screenplays, one with the aforementioned actress and the other without her; he clarifies that it’s not that the film with Robbie has been completely scrapped but, For the time being, the House of Mouse has decided to go with the other option it had on the table.
According to Bruckheimer it would be a matter of priorities, which does not mean that the film starring a pirate is completely dead. “I think the script will come out at some point.”assures the director in his statements to Collider. “We developed two different stories for Pirates and the other was captured first, so now we’re working on it, trying to make it happen”.
Little is known about said film in question beyond rumors. The aforementioned North American medium assures that Ted Elliott, screenwriter of the first four films of the saga, will develop the screenplay of what would be the sixth chapter, together with the creator of “Chernobyl”, Craig Mazin. None of this is 100% confirmed, then Nothing is known yet about the plot or the possible return of the main characters, with Johnny Depp’s Jack Sparrow leading the charge..
Will Jack come back?
The eternal question is whether Johnny Depp, an actor who played the iconic lead in ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’, could return for the next film. Once the media process resulting from the lawsuit brought against his ex-wife Amber Heard has been resolved, this interpreter would take a few steps back towards the top of Hollywood.
Rihanna herself has been her godmother in this regard, betting her a controversial hole on her show ‘Savage X Fenty’, but it’s a long way from there to recovering his position at the helm of one of Disney’s most successful franchises. However, judging by what is being said behind the scenes, Disney would be “very interested in fixing his relationship with Depp. They really hope Johnny will forgive them and come back as an iconic character.”.
