Anyone out there anticipating a fifth Pirates of the Caribbean (is anyone at this point?) are going to have to wait a little longer than expected.
Disney reports that Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Mean Tell No Tales, has been pushed back from summer 2015 to summer 2016. While plot details are scarce (there isn't even a full script at this point) early reports indicate it will involve ghosts, witches, and the Bermuda triangle. Ughh.
While I'm not thrilled about a new Pirates movie (it lost its luster for me after the second one) the last film made over $1 billion worldwide so there is obviously a market for it still. From a business perspective I think this is a smart move by Disney. Summer 2015 is already packed with a new Jurassic Park, a sequel to Independence Day, Batman vs. Superman, The Avengers: Age of Ultron, Ant-Man, and the new Star Wars. That's a lot of competition.
Once again Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales will hit theaters sometime in summer 2016.
Yeah...given those already-schedule films, no brainer decision to push it back. Also, I know at least one person who will watch this movie, so...
ReplyDeleteAlso, not that it means anything and is only tangentially related...the Pirates Lego Wii game is pretty fun.
