Margot Robbie won’t end up being the new Pirates of the Caribbean heroine.
Announced in 2020, a female Pirates of the Caribbean written by Christina Hodson (Batgirl, The Flash, Birds of Prey, Bumblebee) has been dropped by Disney. For reference, the original film series was based on the Disney theme park of the same name and starred Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow. The latter played Captain Jack Sparrow in all five films, with Keira Knightley, Orlando Bloom and Geoffrey Rush in supporting roles. The films have grossed over $4.52 billion worldwide, making them one of the most successful film franchises of all time.

Margot Robbie, Australian actress and producer said:
We had an idea and we developed it for a while, even many years ago, to have more women – not really women, but just a different type of story – which would be really great, but I think they don’t want to do it.
No Pirates of the Caribbean for Margot Robbie
The specific plot details of the famous new Pirates of the Caribbean without Johnny Depp, which will no longer return to Jack Sparrow after his trial for the abuse of his ex-wife Amber Heard, have clearly been kept under wraps and will remain so for some time to come. a lot of time. All Margot Robbie has publicly said about her and Christina Hodson’s views on the project is that it was meant to be more of a “female power”film, and that “it will bring a very important feminine element to this world.”The most important female element, of course, was Margot Robbie, who proved with her portrayal of Harley Quinn that she could set the screen on fire by playing the complex and fast-paced female protagonist in a fast-paced license.
