Six new movies and television shows make their way to Disney+ this week. 

Rogue Trip, Wild Congo, Wild Sri Lanka, Disney Family Sundays – “The Jungle Book: Finger Puppet,” and “One Day at Disney – “Chris Cristi: Helicopter Reporter.” 

But the highlight of the July 24th releases, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales which is the last installment featuring Johnny Depp, however, Disney is working on two reboots of the franchise.

For now, there are speculations that Depp will still appear in a small way in the Pirates of the Caribbean reboot (led by Australian actress Margot Robbie), to give Jack Sparrow a proper farewell. However, it is also important to point out that the studio has not yet confirmed Depp’s involvement in the film. The nasty libel trial happening in the UK right now between Johnny and a tabloid has been exposing awful relationship details with ex Amber Heard, and a second defamation trial, due to be heard in America in six months, could further tarnish his image.

Stay tuned for more updates on this story.
