Jerry Bruckheimer’s Next Big Franchises: Pirates of the Caribbean & Top Gun Updates | What’s Next? (2026)

The legendary producer Jerry Bruckheimer is gearing up for another thrilling adventure, but this time, it's a race to the finish line between two iconic franchises: Pirates of the Caribbean and Top Gun. In a recent interview, Bruckheimer revealed that the decision between these two blockbusters is a close call, with Top Gun currently leading the charge. But here's where it gets intriguing... Bruckheimer hints at a potential script for Top Gun, while also acknowledging the ongoing development of a Margot Robbie-led Pirates of the Caribbean reboot. This has fans buzzing with excitement and anticipation. But the real question remains: which franchise will ultimately reign supreme? And this is the part most people miss... Bruckheimer's comments shed light on the behind-the-scenes drama, as he teases a potential return of Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow in the Pirates reboot, despite previously stating it would be a fresh start. Meanwhile, Tom Cruise is hard at work on a sequel to Top Gun: Maverick and a follow-up to his 1990 NASCAR drama, Days of Thunder. So, which franchise will capture the hearts and minds of audiences worldwide? And will Bruckheimer's horse race analogy hold up? The answer may lie in the scripts yet to come. Stay tuned, as the battle for box office dominance heats up!
