June 2025 – The compass points home once again.
Disney has just released the teaser trailer for Pirates of the Caribbean 6 (2026), marking the long-awaited return of Johnny Depp as the legendary Captain Jack Sparrow. After years of speculation and shifting plans, the beloved swashbuckling franchise is officially back, and the teaser promises a darker, more personal adventure — one that brings back old enemies, lost treasure, and the ghost of the past.
🏴☠️ Plot Overview
Set several years after Dead Men Tell No Tales, the new film finds Jack Sparrow in exile, hiding on a forgotten island and presumed dead by the world. But when a cursed artifact resurfaces — one said to unlock the “Map of Souls,” capable of rewriting the fate of any sailor — Sparrow is forced out of hiding.
He must form uneasy alliances with new faces and familiar foes, including Lord Cutler Beckett (played by Tom Hollander, returning in a mysterious resurrection twist), to face the greatest pirate hunter of all time: Death itself, now captain of a ghost fleet bound to erase all pirate blood from the sea.
