Will there be a 6th part of “Pirates of the Caribbean” without Depp? The main role is to be played by a would-be Marvel star

Almost 7 years have passed since the premiere of the last installment of “Pirates of the Caribbean”, and although during this time there have been several plans to reactivate the series, all of them have so far come to nothing. However, there is a chance that this will change soon. Disney has reportedly begun preparations for a new film from the Jack Sparrow universe, in which the would-be Marvel star will play the main role.

“Pirates of the Caribbean” starring is undoubtedly one of the most popular adventure series in the history of cinema. It was initiated by “The Curse of the Black Pearl”, which debuted in cinemas in 2003, creating a real sensation among viewers, and in the following years four equally successful sequels were created.

Disney announced two new “Pirates of the Caribbean” installments. Will the plan finally come true?

The series is produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and Walt Pictures, which has planned to reactivate it several times over the last 7 years. Shortly after the premiere of “Salazar’s Revenge”, there were reports that two more films were planned. Margot Robbie was to play the main role in one of them, while the plot of the other one was to focus on the fate of new, much younger characters.

In 2022, however, the actress stated that, to her knowledge, the production had been canceled. Her statement was categorically denied by the producer, who informed that the project, although no longer a priority, still had a chance to see the light of day. The latest reports indicate that the second idea will appear on screens sooner.

Is there a sequel to “Pirates of the Caribbean” coming? The star of “The Bear” is to play the main role

It’s no secret that Pirates of the Caribbean has a specific audience, especially since the series was created over two decades ago. For this reason, Disney wants subsequent spin-offs to attract not only Jack Sparrow fans, but also a younger audience, and therefore intends to introduce completely new faces to the universe. As reported by the portal, the main role in the production will probably be played by Ayo Eebiri, who won an Emmy Award and a Golden Globe for her role in the series “The Bear”. This is to be confirmed, among others, by: the fact that the actress withdrew from participating in the new Marvel project “Thunderbolts” due to other professional commitments.

For now, the project is shrouded in strict secrecy and it is not even certain whether he will decide to return to his role. It is known that the new installment of the series will focus on the fate of a young pirate, Anne, and her equally young companions, who will set out to distant seas in search of treasure. Initially, Disney plans to direct the film to Craig Mazin, who is responsible for, among others, for success.
