Producers Plan Pirates of Caribbean 6 With Margot Robbie Amid Johnny Depp Return Talks

News summary

Jerry Bruckheimer is actively working on a sixth installment of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, with Margot Robbie confirmed to be involved, although the specifics of her role remain unclear. Johnny Depp's potential return as Captain Jack Sparrow hinges on the script's quality, with Bruckheimer expressing his support and having discussions with Depp, but no firm decisions have been made. Keira Knightley has denied rumors of her return, indicating she has not been approached for the new film. Depp's possible comeback is complicated by recent controversies, including a backlash over his bullmastiff attacking sheep and past issues involving his pets, which have kept him in the public eye. Despite these challenges, Depp remains a significant figure for the franchise, having contributed to its massive global box office success. Disney faces a balancing act between leveraging Depp's star power and managing the reputational risks linked to his personal controversies.
