On Stranger Tides might have had the biggest budget in cinema history, but Pirates of the Caribbean 6 can't let the series repeat this risky maneuver.
While On Stranger Tides recouped its astronomical budget, the fourth Pirates of the Caribbean movie took a risk that Pirates of the Caribbean 6 cannot afford to repeat. Like many blockbuster franchises, Pirates of the Caribbean seemed too big to fail. After the sleeper hit success of the original 2003 movie The Curse of the Black Pearl, Disney took a big gamble on two back-to-back sequels that cost a whopping $225 million and $300 million respectively.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY However, this success could not possibly last for the series. While the franchise remained a box office success until 2017’s disappointing fifth Pirates of the Caribbean movie, Dead Men Tell No Tales, the fourth movie in the series took the biggest risk regarding its ballooning budget. 2011’s On Stranger Tides cost a whopping $410 million .
The budget of On Stranger Tides could balloon to such extremes because the sequel was seen as a surefire hit during its production. Indeed, this wasn’t an inaccurate assessment. On Stranger Tides earned over $1.04 billion at the box office, handily recouping its huge budget. However, now that Depp is not necessarily starring in the next sequel , his star power can’t be factored into Pirates of the Caribbean 6’s potential success.
Why Pirates of the Caribbean 6 Must Avoid This Fate After the fifth Pirates of the Caribbean movie made only $700 million at the box office, a budget of over $400 million could spell doom for the long-dormant series. However, if the creators of Pirates of the Caribbean 6 hire Depp for only a supporting role or keep him out of the movie entirely, this would also allow the series to refocus on new characters and keep costs down.
