Disney Offers Chris Hemsworth and Jason Momoa £280 Million to Lead Pirates of the Caribbean Reboot After Johnny Depp’s Refusal

In a bold attempt to revive the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, Disney has reportedly offered Chris Hemsworth and Jason Momoa a combined £280 million to star in the next installment of the billion-dollar series. The move comes in the wake of Johnny Depp’s refusal to return as Captain Jack Sparrow, citing his disdain for Disney’s support of “woke culture.”

A New Era for Pirates?

Hemsworth and Momoa, two of Hollywood’s most bankable stars, are reportedly being courted to lead the franchise into uncharted waters. Both actors are no strangers to blockbusters, with Hemsworth starring in Marvel’s Thor series and Momoa anchoring the Aquaman franchise. Their combined star power could breathe new life into the Pirates series, which has struggled to chart a course forward since Depp’s departure.

Insiders reveal that Disney’s eye-watering £280 million offer includes hefty upfront payments and performance bonuses. While the details of their potential roles remain under wraps, it’s rumored that the studio envisions Hemsworth as a dashing new protagonist and Momoa as a formidable pirate antagonist.

The Johnny Depp Factor

This development follows Disney’s controversial fallout with Johnny Depp, whose portrayal of Captain Jack Sparrow became synonymous with the franchise. Depp, who recently rejected Disney’s reported £250 million offer and apology to return, criticized the studio for abandoning him during his public legal battles with Amber Heard.

Depp also accused Disney of succumbing to “woke culture,” a term he used to describe what he believes is the studio’s prioritization of social messaging over creativity. His refusal has left Disney scrambling to find a new direction for the beloved franchise.

Fans Divided Over the Change

News of Hemsworth and Momoa potentially joining the franchise has sparked a mixed reaction from fans. Many are excited about the prospect of fresh talent leading the series, with one fan tweeting, “Chris Hemsworth and Jason Momoa in Pirates of the Caribbean? Sign me up!”

However, Depp’s loyal fanbase remains steadfast in their support for the original star, with many calling for Disney to abandon the franchise altogether rather than move forward without Captain Jack Sparrow. “No Johnny Depp, no Pirates,” one fan declared on social media, echoing a sentiment shared by thousands.

A High-Stakes Gamble for Disney

Disney’s decision to pursue Hemsworth and Momoa signals the studio’s determination to keep the Pirates brand alive despite the controversy surrounding Depp’s exit. The franchise, which has grossed over $4.5 billion worldwide, remains one of Disney’s most lucrative properties, making its revival a top priority.

Whether Hemsworth and Momoa will accept Disney’s offer remains uncertain, but the proposal highlights the studio’s willingness to take risks to ensure the franchise’s future.

What’s Next for Pirates?

As Disney waits for responses from Hemsworth and Momoa, fans are left wondering what direction the franchise will take without its iconic Captain Jack Sparrow. Will fresh faces and a massive budget be enough to reignite the magic of Pirates of the Caribbean, or will Depp’s absence cast a shadow too large to overcome?

For now, the fate of the Pirates franchise hangs in the balance, as Disney navigates uncharted territory in its quest to chart a new course for one of its most beloved series.
