The news broke thatMargot Robbie ’s undertake reboot , pirate of the Caribbean 6has been cancel by Disney , which is bad intelligence for the franchise . The franchise , which began in 2003 withPirates of the Caribbean : Curse of the Black Pearl , started out strong with a film that feel fresh and new . However , by the fourth dimension of the last entry , Pirates of the Caribbean : deadened Men Tell No Tales , it sense as though the series had melt out of steam . But the corner office of the late moving picture was still dependable , think of there is still an appetite from the interview for more , should the right project arise .

Margot Robbie’sPOTC , which she was developing alongsideBirds of Preywriter Christina Hodson , was a chance to inject new life into the intimately 20 - class - honest-to-goodness franchise and do something a bit dissimilar . It would have been more of a female - go film , and as Robbie proved with her rendering of Harley Quinn , she is more than a good choice to front an legal action / adventure franchise . Robbie is one of the biggest stars out there at the instant and set off a Pirates project with her at the center seems like a mistake , especially as it could lead to a young dealership of films itself .

Johnny Depp has previously said he would never deliver to anotherPirates of the Caribbeanfilm , but time may shift his stance . Whether he does or does n’t render , and all the play going on in his personal lifespan aside , the Pirates enfranchisement became stale under him . Captain Jack Sparrowstarted out as a side character that was so entertaining and engaging , it got Depp an Oscar nominating address . Gone are those days . Jack Sparrow suffer more and more screen clip as the plastic film went on , to the period there was no disputing he was the main persona . While it is still up in the line if he will regress , the Margot Robbie news does make it more possible than it was before .

What Next For The Pirates Of The Caribbean Franchise?

With the cancelation of the Margot Robbie reboot , it is undecipherable where Pirates will go next . Other versions ofPirates 6have been rumor for some fourth dimension , like aKaren Gillan starring motion picture . In this version , Craig Mazin and Ted Elliot were purportedly working on a book to play new life into the franchise , but the position of those other projects is unknown at this point .

Another way forrard could be to fetch back Keira Knightly and Orlando Bloom without Depp for a continuation and severalise a raw , unlike floor . Maybe another female person - lead ensemble could work , just not the same one asMargot Robbie ’s reboot . One affair is for certain , thePirates of the Caribbeanfranchise needs a sweet take to make it relevant again , whether that ’s a reboot or a subsequence of sorts . Let ’s hope Disney has something else nifty design .
