![]() It's great to imagine that a badass pirate woman raised the famous captain of the Black Pearl, and seeing her adventures leading up to meeting, falling in love with, and having a child with Edward Teague could be a good deal of fun.Ĭarina Smyth was one of the central characters of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales. In fact, if Margot Robbie is still interested in being a part of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise when the female-led spin-off finally happens, there's no reason she couldn't play Jack's mother when she was young. Sparrow, it leaves casting wide open as well. Since an actor never played the mysterious Mrs. Moreover, the hazy details surrounding Jack's mother would give the spin-off's writers a lot of creative wiggle room. Jack Sparrow's family history, including the story of his parents, is one that would likely draw audiences back to the franchise. However, this is precisely what makes her the perfect lead for a prequel spin-off. All that is ever shown of her is her shrunken head, which Jack's father lovingly keeps on her person. Jack Sparrow's mother wasn't technically a character in the Pirates of the Caribbean movies. ![]() It could even keep the door open for a potential Jack Sparrow cameo. Audiences never found out what happened to her, and given her rage and likely need for revenge against Jack, it could be interesting to see her continued story in a spin-off. At the end of On Stranger Tides, Jack Sparrow tricked her into taking the remaining life of her father to save herself and left her on a deserted island. Still, a lot was left unsaid about Angelica, who spent most of her time in Pirates of the Caribbean being manipulated by Blackbeard. Therefore, a spin-off led by Angelica might not interest fans as much as a character from the other movies. ![]() Unfortunately, the change in gears from the original cast of the Pirates movies meant that On Stranger Tides wasn't as well received as its predecessors. She was clever, sassy, and a little tragic, which made her a decent character overall. It would explain why Henry Turner knew his way around a ship in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales and give Elizabeth the opportunity for a new ending that better fits her spirit.Īngelica Teach, the daughter of the dreaded Blackbeard, was something of a love interest for Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. This would be especially effective if the movie were set during the years that Will was cursed to captain the Flying Dutchman. Therefore, it would be no stretch for a Pirates of the Caribbean spin-off to see her leading her own crew. The King of the Pirates was left to watch her husband sail away, and the implication is that her adventures ended.Įlizabeth Swann was drawn to life at sea from the time she was a child, so it can be assumed that she wouldn't be content with waiting for Will to return once every decade. Despite this, Elizabeth didn't get the ending she deserved. The story in Curse of the Black Pearl got started because of her, and she was vital in nearly every plot line within POTC's original trilogy. Though Elizabeth Swann was technically a supporting character, she maneuvered through Pirates of the Caribbean like a leading lady. However, for the sake of cohesiveness, it could be better if the spin-off featured a familiar character instead of Robbie's new one-perhaps one of those already seen in POTC. This could be an excellent angle for the franchise, which has focused predominantly on male characters. ![]() He teased that the project would eventually see the light of day and feature a crew of female pirates. Pirates of the Caribbean producer Jerry Bruckheimer has stated (via Collider) that the Robbie spin-off hasn't been tabled entirely but that other projects have been prioritized instead. Therefore, another avenue for a female-led Pirates of the Caribbean movie must be considered. However, this project is at a standstill, and by the time it is pulled from the bottom of a desk drawer somewhere, Robbie may no longer be able to take part. This also seemed to be Diseney's thought since the studio began working on an idea that would feature actress Margot Robbie as the lead. Jack Sparrow is likely gone from Pirates of the Caribbean for good, and the next best move for the franchise could be a female lead instead.
