The film is currently being written by Chernobyl creator Craig Mazin and Ted Elliott, who co-wrote the first four Pirates of the Caribbean movies, to craft a story for the franchise relaunch.
Jerry Bruckheimer and Chad Oman are both signed on to produce with the studio still searching for a director to helm the project.
