    Margot Robbie Says her “Pirates of the Caribbean” Film is Dead

    Sometimes a reboot is NOT a great idea. But sometimes a new take on something can be. We’ll admit, we had mixed feelings about a possible “Pirates of the Caribbean” reboot from Disney. The pitch, however, was pretty interesting. Instead of focusing on the Turners and a certain Captain Jack Sparrow personality, we’d meet a new face in the piratical world. And she’d be played by Oscar nominated actress Margot Robbie.

    In 2020, word came down that the House of Mouse was eyeing this reboot, attaching Robbie imedately. “Birds of Prey” scribe Christina Hodson was penning the script. Jerry Bruckheimer, longtime producer of the “Pirates” properties, was attached to produce. It seemed like a pretty done deal, honestly.

    But, in a recent spotlight story with Vanity Fair, we find this isn’t the case.

    “We had an idea and we were developing it for a while, ages ago, to have more of a female-led—not totally female-led, but just a different kind of story—which we thought would’ve been really cool, but I guess they don’t want to do it,” Robbie revealed.

    We’re…actually kind of sad it isn’t happening. Maybe it will at some point, but not this version. We’ll let you know what we hear about this and other news.

    Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
