It is hard to replicate the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise's success but, after Johnny Depp's departure, Disney tried to do so with a major flop.
While the Pirates of the Caribbean series is still going, Disney already attempted to replace Jack Sparrow’s franchise with 2021’s Jungle Cruise. When The Curse of the Black Pearl arrived in cinemas in 2003, few industry commentators could have predicted just how successful the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise would become in the years that followed.
This plot effectively replicated the major beats of the original Pirates of the Caribbean movie, The Curse of the Black Pearl. Admittedly, there were some superficial differences between the projects. Jack only became immortal like his former crew mates from the Black Pearl while he was fighting them, whereas the twist of Jungle Cruise revealed its hero had been trapped on the Amazon for over 300 years, unable to die or leave.
