      I would rather have Johnny Depp back this isn’t right

    So Sad! 😢

    We all know the cash grab is huge when they need to find a huge eye candy.

    That ship will sink with all hands aboard. Robbie will appeal to the men being a sexy woman and appeal to those women who still think ‘girl-power’ is a thing for grownup women, but Jack appeal to everybody from little kids to their grandparents!

    Huge big mistake

    It is sad that Johnny Depp won’t be playing Capt. Jack Sparrow. Also a bad move for Disney! Fans of all ages loved the charisma of Capt. Jack! Even though Margot is a funny and dramatic actor, she cannot fill Depp’s boots!
    Farewell Black Pearl, your sinking breaks our hearts!

    I have a bad feeling about this!

    True POTC fans will not set with this new installment without Capt.[ Jack Depp] Sparrow.

    Disney just keeps making one mistake after another!! POTC without Jack Sparrow is just another mistake in it’s quest to change Disney forever.

    Perhaps making a new Dynamite Entertainment coming book of Army of Darkness vs Pirates of the Caribbean it’s up to the comic book makers based on Evil Dead 2, Army of Darkness, & Ash vs Evil Dead & Pirates of the Caribbean 1,2,3,4, & 5.

    I hope I’m wrong, but I think this will likely be the death of the franchise. I’m not a Robbie fan, and I wouldn’t touch her insipid Barbie movie with a ten-foot cutlass. She seems very wrong for the franchise in almost every way. I hate “reboots’ in general, which very rarely live up to the originals. I don’t mind a continuation of the existing Pirates universe in a different direction with new stars, but if they try to remake anything that Depp already did, they’ll lose the entire fan base. CONTINUATION in (and with homage to everything that has gone before in) the same universe what they need, NOT a reboot.

    Not interested, sick of every male role being replaced with females.

      Exactly, what’s next, Jane Rambo?

    POTC will hit rock bottem after this last movie with Capt Jack Sparrrow . Johnny Deep and his crew made this movie, bring in someone else will not help it or make the $$$$ Disney looking for. If you want to bring in Robbie build a whole different kind or time fram and crew make it different . not on the backs of POTC movie’s.

    Realistically speaking there is only SO many years Johnny Depp could run around with the energy required for this role, and it’s been too big a gap now. But the choice of a female lead screams “check box” yet again – something I was rather hoping Disney would start to move away from. And as almost everyone always forgets: this is FILM based on a RIDE, and NOT the other way around!!!

    1. Johnny

      Johnny could be in these movies until he dies, he doesn’t need to do much. Disney is trying to protect the perfect image, and doesn’t want bad publicity. That’s all this is about, an image to uphold. Do not support this trash.

  15. CAT

    Johnny Depp has no interest in working with Disney. The Pirates of the Caribbean franchise is dead without him, and the choice of having yet again another female lead spells another financial disaster for Disney. Disney should just put this franchise to bed.

  16. Bill

    Pirates of the Caribbean is Johnny Depp. If he doesn’t return neither will I. Without him, it’s like Foreigner without any original members. It’s not Foreigner. Without Johnny Depp, we’ll you know the rest.

  17. Ariel

    Big Mistake Disney / Jerry – remember the SW sequels ?
    How unpopular, unpleasant and divisive they were
    esp TLJedi ?

    Savvy.

    Wow I’m shocked. Who could have seen the destruction of another IP for boys and its replacement with chick power. Its not sufficient that Disney creates a bunch of irrelevant princesses (Tiana) but now they have to chickify every IP.

  19. Real Star Wars

    Bye bye POC
    When will Disney Learn!

    Heaven forbid any franchise have a male lead

  20. Pamela

    NO Depp, NO POC!!! I will not be interested at all.

  21. John

    I’m not seeing this garbage. No Depp, not seeing it

    Margot is beautiful, and a very good actress. That being said, she is by no means a “guaranteed huge box office” star. Barbie was huge because it was a live action version of a cultural icon. It would have been huge regardless who played the lead (Robbie, Elle F, Shipka, Saoirse, Seyfried, Britt R, or perhaps a new face). Birds of Prey is considered a bomb and can’t really name another movie where Margot carried a movie to huge profits on her name alone. She’s got the chops, just not the charisma to put butts in seats. I will wait for it to hit Amazon Prime.

    1. Chuck

      IMHO, everything she has done thus far has been tripe soaked in distasteful regurgitation.

  23. M Zech

    Someone made a poor choice! No Johnny Depp means I will not be seeing the movie in theaters or online. Johnny makes the movie series entertaining.

  24. If you want to blame anyone for my darling husband Johnny Depp not returning as captain jack sparrow it’s Amber heard she got him fired on purpose as she was jealous of his fame and lifestyle.

  25. Deborah

    No offense to her but there is no Pirates without Johnny Depp. Disney needs to say I’m sorry for trashing you here’s a wheel barrel full of money and those darn alpacas and make the movie!!!

  26. Ann

    WELL, F*****g HELL!!! If they want ANY of my money, they better lean hard on portraying ALL of the historic Female Pirates in this new, younger cast experiment!!!!! 😡🤬

  27. Its Johnny Depp not Johnny Deep, maybe you should go back to school. Savvy

  28. Chuck

    NO DEPP, NO PIRATES!!

  29. Michael Dory

    Don’t count me in without Johnny Depp. Sorry. Disney is teetering on the edge of disaster. I thought someone would realize the obvious. Alas without Johnny Depp there is no Pirates of the Caribbean.

  30. NOPE! WILL NOT GO SEE IT!
    #johhnydepp IS POCB!! If no Depp then NO TO THE MOVIE

  31. Kara

    This will FAIL MISERABLY… and I’m glad! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
    DISNEY treated Johnny terribly…. KARMA WILL CONTINUE to punish them!!!
    Margot… What a joke!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
    Johnny Depp is the heart and soul of the Pirates franchise. No one will go to see Magot! What a STUPID MOVE!
