According to several reports, the film will be treated as a spin-off and separate from the promised reboot of the wildly popular Johnny Depp-starring franchise, centred on Captain Jack Sparrow.
Hollywood Reporter also stated that the new franchise will be set around a "wholly original story with new characters" which have been inspired from a famous Disneyland ride. The new Pirates spin-off is set to be helmed by Chernobyl creator Craig Mazin, alongside writer Ted Elliot, who had penned the first four films of the hit franchise. The franchise's long time producer Jerry Bruckheimer is also associated with the new project.
