Speaking with ComicBook.com, producer Jerry Bruckheimer stressed that the franchise was still on track to return but that they would now be bringing in a new cast to tell new stories, adding that he was unsure if Pirates or another legacy series, Top Gun, would return to screens first.

"It's hard to tell. You don't know, you really don't know. You don't know how they come together. You just don't know. Because with Top Gun you have an actor who is iconic and brilliant. And how many movies he does before he does Top Gun, I can't tell you. But we're gonna reboot Pirates, so that is easier to put together because you don't have to wait for certain actors."

There's a whole lot of 'I dont know' from someone who's in charge. Does not bode well.

I've been getting the impression from a lot of interviews with Hollywood people (actors and directors), that they've given up on doing meaningful things and are just collecting paychecks. Exceptions exist of course but I can't say I blame them. If studios are only willing to throw money at lazily reheated ideas why put effort into it, as long as you can still get your paycheck.

It isn't really anything new. You have the classic quote:

I have never seen it (Jaws 4) but by all accounts it is terrible. However, I have seen the house that it built and it is terrific.

But yeah, it definitely feels more frequent that there's no passion beyond getting a paycheck or a free trip to exotic locales with their pals.
