Next 'Pirates of the Caribbean' Movie Will Be a Reboot, Jerry Bruckheimer Says

Bruckheimer confirmed the news in a recent interview.

Bruckheimer said the latter franchise is a little more difficult to give any kind of timeline or updates on because it involves getting big-name actors like Tom Cruise, Miles Teller and Glen Powell to coordinate schedules. In December of that year, the producer also spoke with The Hollywood Reporter about the status of the franchise -- which is inspired by the eponymous Disneyland ride -- and said that Depp's return would be welcome if it were solely up to him. Bruckheimer was referring to Depp's massively public defamation trial with his ex-wife, Amber Heard, which played out in the media and ultimately received the Netflix documentary treatment.
