Why Pirates of the Caribbean Producer Wants Johnny Depp Back

Pirates of the Caribbean producer Jerry Bruckheimer passionately expresses his desire to have Johnny Depp back for more Pirates films. Pirates of the Caribbean saw its last iteration in 2017 with the film Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales. A sequel, which will be the sixth Pirates of the Caribbean film has since been announced. Unlike its five predecessors, however, Depp will not be returning as Captain Jack Sparrow.

If it were up to Bruckheimer, however, Depp would return to the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise. Speaking with Deadline, Bruckheimer sung Depp’s praises, speaking well of both his talents and character. Check out the full quote from Bruckheimer:
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY

“He’s just so good at what he does and actors recover from things like this. He’s a good individual and he’s a caring individual. He’s somebody that you can rely on and he’s just terrific. I think Johnny is an utter friend and an amazing artist and, again, you go through things in life you wish you hadn’t, but he’s still a talented artist.”

This is not the first time Bruckheimer has expressed interest in working with Depp again for Pirates of the Caribbean. This time, Bruckheimer doubles down on his fondness for the actor, subtly defending Depp against his rocky image in the public eye in the process. Both Depp’s drama with ex-partner Amber Heard and his already-announced exit as Jack Sparrow make his return to the Pirates of the Caribbean series seem unlikely, despite Bruckheimer’s support of Depp.

Without Depp, Pirates of the Caribbean 6 will shape up to be a lot different from the first five films. Captain Jack Sparrow has been the series’ iconic protagonist since 2003’s Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, so it will be difficult for the series for forge ahead without him. Pirates of the Caribbean may also lack other recurring actors such as Orlando Bloom, who played former-blacksmith-turned-pirate Will Turner in the original series. Unlike Depp, Bloom has hinted about his openness to return for Pirates of the Caribbean 6.

Bruckheimer’s passionate support of Depp’s Pirates of the Caribbean return should not be taken lightly, however. Bruckheimer has been heavily involved in the Pirates series since its inception in 2003. Furthermore, he has a powerful Hollywood stronghold, producing a number of blockbuster hits including last year’s Top Gun: Maverick. If Depp’s image is able to turn around in the coming years, perhaps Bruckheimer could see his Pirates of the Caribbean wishes come true.

‘I am officially off the market’: When Margot Robbie revealed she made the ‘conscious’ decision of not dating actors


Margot Robbie revealed her decision to not date actors because of the media scrutiny that came with a public relationship of two high-profile actors
Back in 2015, A-lister Margot Robbie made a declaration that she would not be dating any actors. The actress may have alluded to her fiance Tom Ackerley, who she married the following year in 2016. In an exclusive interview with Marie Claire, she revealed that being in a relationship as an actor herself came with its own set of challenges. She believed that dating someone who was popular would add on to the media scrutiny.

Margot Robbie opened up on why she made a conscious decision to not date actorsTalking to Marie Claire, she claimed, “I am officially off the market.” She then shared the reasoning behind her decision and added, “I made a conscious decision not to date actors.” She continued to explain, “But not because I hate actors. That’s a nasty generalization to make, and that’s not the case. People take such an interest in your love life when you have a profile, it puts a lot of stress on a relationship.”
The Barbie actress continued, “So two people with profiles, I figure it’s just double the amount of scrutiny, and I’d like to avoid that at all costs.” This came after reports of her locking lips with Tarzan co-star Alexander Skarsgard started making rounds. It was reported that she was caught kissing the actor during the Sundance Film Festival.

Margot Robbie revealed she opted for a minimal lifestyle even after becoming an actorIn the interview, Robbie also opened up about how she was adapting to fame. She shared, “I have a normal 24-year-old life. If I were a waitress, I’d probably have the exact same lifestyle. I’d go to the same clubs I go to already, live in the same house with the same housemates, hang out with the same people.”
However, Margot Robbie tied the knot with Tom Ackerley who is an English producer and actor. The duo met on the sets of 2013 movie Suite Francaise where Tom was working as an assistant director. Post marriage, both of them launched their production company LuckyChap Entertainment.

‘Rocky’ Was Quite Different In His Original Screenplay, Sylvester Stallone Claims


Sylvester Stallone took his friend’s advice on a rewrite of the original screenplay to Rocky. A few tweaks later, he was on his way to major success.
In the new Netflix documentary Sly, Stallone discussed how he initially conceived of the project, which had a much harder edge. In the early version, Rocky was depicted as a “thuggish” character, inspired by Martin Scorsese’s crime drama, Mean Streets.

But Stallone’s perspective changed when a friend read the script and thought the boxer was too cruel for audiences to actually care about him.
Stallone recalled her crying.

“She goes, ‘I hate Rocky. I hate him. He’s cruel. He hits people. He beats them up.’”
Stallone took it to heart, and asked what he could do to soften the character.

“I said, ‘what if you stop short of it?’ Like, maybe he almost did. He could have, that’s his job, but he doesn’t?’ ‘That’d be nice,’” he added. “I said, ‘What if he had a girlfriend or something?’ ‘Yeah, that’s nice.’ So I go back, start writing that: ‘Girlfriend. Nice.’”
$117 million in box office later, a franchise was born.

Stallone also revealed that actor Dolph Lundgren sent him to the hospital during one fight scene in Rocky IV.
“Dolph Lundgren… he pulverized me,” Stallone says in the documentary. “Later that night, my heart started to swell—which happens when the heart hits the chest—and then my blood pressure went up to 260, and they thought I was going to be talking to angels. Next thing I know, I’m in intensive care, where I’m surrounded by nuns, and I thought, ‘OK, that’s curtains.’”
Stallone was in the hospital for nine days following the incident, praying for “one more round.”
“For the first minute of the fight, it is going to be a free-for-all,” Stallone told Lundgren. The Swedish actor joked in a separate interview that all he did was “obey orders,” explaining, “[Stallone] was the boss. I did what he told me.”
Doctors allegedly told Stallone that he received a blow to the ribs that made his heart rattle around in his ribcage, a condition typically seen in head-on collisions. “I did hit a bus, of sorts,” Stallone joked.
