Script for Pirates of the Caribbean 6 is Really Weird However Disney Bought It

Craig Mazin recently sat down with the Los Angeles Times and told them that the script for “Pirates of the Caribbean 6” was “so weird he was surprised that Disney bought it.” Variety had reported that Disney was developing two Pirates films, one starring Margot Robbie and a sixth film in the franchise.

Mazin said, “We pitched it and thought there’s no way they’re buying it, it’s too weird. And they did! And then he wrote a fantastic script and the strike happened and everyone’s waiting around.” Dead Men Tell No Tales arrived in theaters in 2017, so it has been quite some time since we have had a “Pirates” film from the Jerry Bruckheimer produced franchise.

The script for the film remains a mystery and rumors have been swirling about that Johnny Depp will return as Captain Jack Sparrow. As of May 2022, Bruckheimer when asked, “Will Johnny Depp be back?”, he replied, “Not at this point, The future is yet to be decided.”

Writer Craig Mazin is currently working on The Last of Us, HBO’s Emmy nominated adaptation of the Playstation game. Disney would be eager to return to the Pirates franchise as the films have cultivated massive box office success for the studio. Every film in the franchise has earned more than 600 million at the international box office, with most entries topping the one billion dollar mark.

This kind of success seems to have Disney eager to get back into the waters with “Pirates” despite a “weird script.” Would you be back onboard with a fantastically weird Pirates of the Caribbean starring Johnny Depp? Let us know your thoughts in a comment.

The franchise, produced by Walt Disney Pictures, is known for its charismatic lead character, Captain Jack Sparrow, portrayed by Johnny Depp. Here’s a brief synopsis of the main films in the series:

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003): The franchise begins with the introduction of Captain Jack Sparrow, a charming yet eccentric pirate, who teams up with Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) to rescue Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley) from the cursed crew of the Black Pearl. The crew, led by the undead Captain Hector Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush), is cursed to live forever but unable to enjoy life.
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest (2006): In this sequel, Jack Sparrow owes a debt to the notorious Davy Jones (Bill Nighy) and must find the heart of Davy Jones to avoid a gruesome fate. Will and Elizabeth join Jack in a quest filled with sea monsters, betrayals, and supernatural encounters.
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End (2007): The final installment of the original trilogy sees Jack, Will, and Elizabeth joining forces with pirates from around the world to battle the East India Trading Company and Davy Jones in a massive showdown at the edge of the world. Complex alliances and personal vendettas drive the plot as the fate of pirates and the freedom of the seas hang in the balance.
Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (2011): Captain Jack Sparrow embarks on a quest to find the Fountain of Youth, but he’s not the only one seeking this mythical source of eternal life. He crosses paths with the infamous Blackbeard (Ian McShane) and a woman from his past, Angelica (Penélope Cruz), in a race to reach the fountain first.
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales (2017): Jack Sparrow faces a new supernatural threat in the form of Captain Salazar (Javier Bardem) and his cursed crew of ghostly pirates.
