According to the latest scoop by an industry insider, Unlimited L, Ayo Edebiri is rumoredly replacing the franchise alum, Johnny Depp in the sixth installment of Pirates of the Caribbean.
The Golden Globe awardee is renowned for playing the role of chef Sydney Adamu in the comedy-drama series The Bear. In addition to that, she has also lent her voice in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem.
Given that she holds quite a strong command of her skills, it looks like the House of Mouse is eyeing to have her in the leading role, replacing Depp’s Jack Sparrow. Check out the tweet here.
The insider also mentioned that the movie is set to feature “a younger cast of pirates” with the actress possibly being considered to play the role of Anne. Her character is based on a “real-life pirate, Anne Bonny” who was an Irishwoman in the 17th century.
While the news is yet to be officially confirmed by the studio, The SpaceX chairman, Elon Musk is surely not happy with the report.

As the alleged report makes rounds on the Internet, Elon Musk has also expressed his opinions on the same. From his comments, it’s quite clear that he did not support the alleged idea of the original star, Johnny Depp being replaced.
He took to X to repost the report with a comment, “Disney S-cks.”
His comment has surely met with several responses with many fans asking the business personality to buy the House of Mouse.

While it is clear that the fans are quite enraged with rumors of Depp being replaced in the sixth Pirates installment, another scooper, Daniel Richtman commented on the same clarifying that Edebiri’s casting is only being considered for a Pirates spin-off project. The scooper further made the report clear that the actress replacing the Dark Shadows actor is untrue.
Regardless of anything, the fact remains the same the fans want the Black Mass actor to serve as the lead in the sixth Pirates movie whom the studio fired due to his then-ongoing legal disputes with his ex-wife, Amber Heard. The Aquaman actress wrote an op-ed piece in The Washington Post claiming herself as a domestic abuse victim. That took a great toll on his reputation, leading his professional career to hit rock bottom. He filed a defamation lawsuit in 2019 which commenced in April 2022 and concluded in June that year with the court announcing the verdict in his favor.
