Megastar Johnny Depp has been FIRED from the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise as Disney plans a major reboot WITHOUT him according to Dailymail!!

He was a major lead in the five Pirates films in the past 15 years as it appears Captain Jack Sparrow has finally made his final voyage on the Black Pearl.

Stuart Beattie, the original pirates writer confirmed his exit as the 55 y/o is currently dogging his own personal demons and drama in his life.

Dead Men Tell No Tales was the lowest grossing of the franchise as Disney thinks the movie is in need of a reboot

Stuart said "I think he's had a great run. Obviously, he's made that character his own and it's become the character he's most famous now. And kids all over the world love him as that character so i think it's been great for him, it's been great for us, so i'm just very very happy about it"

He feels Depp will be fine no matter what's next in his career as the franchise he starred in made 4 billion for Disney

Before the franchise, Depp was considered to be a quirky, independent actor that made cool titles such as Tim Burton films as he wasn't known for a big movie star at that time until the Pirates franchise came along.

But his recent struggles with drugs after looking gaunt while on tour with his band and his legal struggles with ex-wife Amber Heard has dogged him in the media.

Deadpool's writing team will work on the reboot.

Do you think Pirates needs a reboot?

Johnny - Out

Most of the film's problems had nothing to do with Depp, it more the shit writing, convoluted story, and tenuous connection between the villain and Sparrow.

While Depp was certainly a big star before Pirates, stuff like the Ninth Gate didn't exactly make him a draw. More importantly, you've listed a lot of his indie work while completely neglecting Sleepy Hollow which makes a better case because it was a blockbuster he headlined and more directly comparable to the Pirates films.

I remember an article a few years back that stated that Depp was one of the worst stars in recouping money when he headlined a film. This is likely why companies like Disney are letting him go, if you have The Rock as your star you make a hell of a lot more money than having Depp as your star.

Well, he's monstrously overpaid which really doesn't help.

The franchise doesn't need a reboot. It needs to take a break, work on a half decent script and come back in a few years.

So I just googled this and the first thing that came up was the Tribune, and now Im wondering if youre just cutting and pasting other articles and not actually writing your own version of the facts...? Theres an awful lot of word-for-word similarities here and some sections are just reversed from what you wrote with like 1 or 2 words changed...

Hollywood superstar Johnny Depp, famously known for his Pirates of the Caribbean character Captain Jack Sparrow has been removed from the film franchise. The news comes after Disney Studios revealed its plan to reboot the series, reported Business Standard.

The 55-year-old actor was the main lead in the five films that have been released over a period of 15 years. The original script writer of the franchise, Stuart Beattie, was the first to publicly confirm that Disney Studios appears to be ditching Depp as they rework the entire series. Speaking to Daily Mail TV at an event in Los Angeles, Beattie confirmed that the reboot meant that Depp was being dropped as Sparrow.

Beattie said, I think Johnny has had a great run. Obviously, hes made that character his own and its become the alias hes most famous for now. And kids all over the world love him as Captain Jack Sparrow. So I think its been great for him and its been great for us. Im very happy about the new franchise now.

The writer feels that no matter what Depp does next, his Hollywood career high point will be defined by Sparrow which amassed more than $4 billion from the films. Beattie added, I think Jack Sparrow will be his legacy. Its the only character he has played five times. Its the character he dresses up in to visit children in hospitals, its what hell be remembered for.

Depp, who has been dogged by personal dramas with former wife Amber Heard over the past four years, saw his last outing as the notorious captain in Dead Men Tell No Tales. The film became the lowest performing installment of Pirates of the Caribbean.

Well I thought he was known for writing a skewed version of the facts. Theres the truth, the Daily Mail, and then theres DuckBearFacts...

I didnt think that his version was just the Mail Daily...

Probably for the best.

Disney is nothing more than an SJW echo-box.

Depp's persona is more in league with true Libertarian thinkers like his bygone friend Hunter S. Thompson, and comedian Doug Stanhope.

Originally, Depp enjoyed playing a pirate for exercising that idealism (before Disney went all SJW), and it became painfully obvious that the last two movies were nothing but paycheck roles, in lieu of paying off his gold-digging ex-wife.

Now that Disney is going on their SJW kick, I'm betting Depp got let go because of "creative differences" which is just another way of saying he refused to play the part of the Soy-boy posing as a pirate which Disney wanted him to be.

This topic will be another notch in the "Get Woke, Go Broke" meme; since not a lot of people are too keen on seeing a different lead that conforms to Disney's motives.

Pirate 6 will bomb.

Instead of a reboot it needs to just die. Maybe in 15+ years we can consider maybe a reboot to the series...maybe.
