The last «Pirates of the Caribbean» movie was released seven years ago, and at the moment, the fifth film in the franchise, «Dead Men Tell No Tales,» became Johnny Depp’s last film as Jack Sparrow.
The first three films received praise, but the last two performed poorly at the box office.
Despite the poor reception, producer Jerry Bruckheimer still hopes for another chance to realize the franchise.
In the past couple of years, there have been rumors of a revival of the franchise, even with Margot Robbie’s involvement. Unfortunately, Disney scrapped the film.
Depp’s relationship with Disney soured during his public divorce from ex-wife Amber Heard. Although he has since kept a low profile, sources close to Depp have said, «Anything is possible. He’s ready to work with Disney again if it’s the right project.»
In a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, Bruckheimer seemed to echo this sentiment, stating that he «likes» working with Depp and would be happy if he returned to the franchise: «If it were up to me, certainly.
He’s a great actor and a good friend… I’ve certainly talked to him, but let’s see what happens.»
