The Disney Board is going to love hearing this again.

Not that it matters, but there's a 5 page thread about this on page 2.

Out of curiosity, where does Johnny Depp register on the triggered woke scale?

So edgy and progressive...

I mean, it likely wouldn't matter who they cast because Depp fans drive this franchise's success. The elf and skinny girl did a decent enough job, but Johnny IS the franchise.

Maybe a smart move as they can sacrifice this actress' box office reputation, eat this expensive bomb and blame all the ists and phobes. Then they can do a real reboot in 2027 or so.

There is a 0% this character is neither a lesbian nor bisexual.

The only interesting scene will be when they make her walk the plank.

That reminds me, wasn’t the board doing a Black Sails rewatch? Need something unwoke. Just white males doing… oops nevermind.

Gingers get erased.



I highly doubt this will do well.

It's not the new Jack Sparrow. It's the new lead in a Pirates of the Caribbean movie, and I don't care.

There were black Pirates. The most notable was probably Black Caesar -- Blackbeards second in command.

There were women Pirates. Though very very few.


Pirate crew often had freed slaves in their ranks and it could make for an interesting story as long as they don't try to out Jack Johnny.

Also read it was gonna be a spinoff with younger pirates searching for buried treasure. This might be a PotC aimed at children.

More Hook than Sparrow

We were going to wait until it hit Netflix (it was already supposed to) so more people could watch. I've been checking to see why it didn't drop but couldn't find anything.

This just has another Disney bomb written all over it. Partly over the new lead but I also think POTC movies have run their course.
