Hard pass. Why does Disney destroy everything?

What the hell happened on the Pirates set that made Zoe Saldana straight refuse to ever be involved w/those movies again?

She gets a ship at the end of the first movie, is a legit star they can push in ads, and has a long list of action roles making it east to accept her as an arse kicking pirate. It's crazy to me that they don't just center a movie on what happens to her after she gets her own ship.

Yes, please, Zoe Saldana is awesome.

I had no interest in pirates after number 3, felt like it was a good wrap up and htere was no need for more. Ended up watching the other two out of curiosity and felt I was proven right. I will take a pass on this, unless if it ends up being focused more on will/elizabeth.

Another great franchise Disney will insist on ruining then wonder why they are losing money and slipping toward bankruptcy.

That character was named anamaria. Maybe this new pirates is a prequel and we find out why Jack owes her a ship?

Doesn't matter. America is accustomed to seeing African American women change hair styles and colors ever other day via wigs.

If they announced a new Pirates with Johnny Depp back as Jack Sparrow, they'd print money.

Unfortunately for them, I don't think he'd ever agree to it.

The thread reminded me how great Black Sails was and criminally underrated

I hate double standards.

Since Disney is interested in remakes with different races, when do we see a remake of Princess and the Frog with a white Tiana?

They should bring it back. Best thing Starz ever made

I'd watch it, but I've never seen the original so I would need them to clarify that this was how it was always meant to be

Yeah I doubt this gets made even if this rumor has a basis. I don’t think there is any demand for another Pirates movie, let alone for one like this. This might be like the endless Star Wars movie projects that get announced then forgotten.


And while I like Eyo as an actress, there’s a reason no bigger stars are climbing over themselves to be the lead in this movie. She’s probably the “biggest” actress they can get for this role at this point because no one wants to follow Depp.

The sequel existed before the show. It’s called Treasure Island. If they tried to make more, they would ruin it. Just let me stream it on Netflix like it was planned for Jan 1.

Also not a redhead

They let a blonde dye her hair red and appropriate ginger culture. Also she was an English woman playing an (in)famous Irish woman

Im about to sign up for starz just to rewatch this show
