While we wait in vain for a new Pirates of the Caribbean movie, another pirate adventure is on the horizon. This one comes from the Avengers makers and is being made for Amazon Prime Video.
Is Pirates of the Caribbean 6 coming? And what about the spin-off with Margot Robbie? The Disney franchise has been in chaos for several years. There has been talk of a new pirate adventure from time to time, but the sequel to the Pirates of the Caribbean series has not yet been announced.
The streaming service Amazon Prime Video is taking advantage of the moment to position its own pirate epic. The Bluff is a lavish adventure blockbuster currently in production that takes us back to the 19th century and tells the story of a former pirate who is caught up in the mistakes of her past
The Bluff: Amazon presents its Pirates of the Caribbean replacement with Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Karl Urban
As Deadline reports, The Bluff is backed by AGBO, the production company of Avengers creators Joe Russo and Anthony Russo. They have already worked successfully with Amazon in the past, specifically on the action series Citadel, which marks the launch of a new agent franchise.
Here you can watch the trailer for Citadel:
Priyanka Chopra Jonas plays one of the main roles in Citadel and now also leads the Russos’ new Amazon blockbuster. In The Bluff, she plays the aforementioned pirate who is caught up in her past and must protect her family from the dangers of the Caribbean. The Boys star Karl Urban is also part of the cast.
The film is directed by Frank E. Flowers, who has just landed a 120 million dollar hit at the box office with Bob Marley: One Love. He also co-wrote the screenplay with Joe Ballarini (My Little Pony: The Movie). If all goes to plan, filming on The Bluff will begin in Australia in the spring.
