I disintegrated into a million crabs, so I think my character is very much dead. I loved Tia Dalma, like she is one of my favorite characters of all time that I played. So I would definitely like to come back, but I think she’s very much dead.

Pirates of the Caribbean Has Plans For Two Movies
Harris' recentPirates of the Caribbeanupdate comes after franchise producer Jerry Bruckheimer shared thata reboot and a spinoff are in the works. Bruckheimerconfirmed thatPirates of the Caribbean 6, which had been reportedly in the works for years, would “reboot” the franchise. As a reason for this choice, the producer said that rebootingPirateswould avoid delays caused by having to “wait for certain actors.” The most recent status update forPirates of the Caribbean 6noted that the script was in development.
Bruckheimer has mentioned that he would love to see Depp in the role again, as of now the actor’s tenure inPirates of the Caribbeanis finished.
WhilePirates of the Caribbeanis a reboot does provide an opportunity to make the film faster, its casting has been a source of contention. Specifically, arguments have surrounded the question of whether formerJack Sparrow star Johnny Deppwould appear in the film. While Bruckheimer has mentioned that he would love to see Depp in the role again, as of now the actor’s tenure inPirates of the Caribbeanis finished. This has been an upset to franchise viewers and actors alike, with Geoffrey Rush calling Depp “irreplaceable.”
In addition to this rebooted version ofPirates, there is also a spinoff film in the works, involving actor-producer Margot Robbie.The exact timeline or focus of this spinoff is unknown, but it is conceivable that it could include some characters from the original films. If it were to take place chronologically before Tia Dalma’s death, there would be hope for Harris to appear, but any other timeline does make aPirates of the Caribbeanreturn unlikely for Tia Dalma.
