Pirates of the Caribbean 5, pirated? According to recent reports, a group of hackers would claim a ransom to the Disney studios by threatening to league the film on the net!
Protecting films and their rights to broadcast before being released has become extremely complicated. Between the untimely leaks, illegal downloads and streaming platforms that give access to feature films at the same time they go to the cinema, the film industry already had hands full. But this is apparently another form of piracy that she must now face. Moreover, the term ” piracy ” is, for the moment, very relevant! For you figure, the meltynauts, that Disney was visibly the victim of an attack led by hackers who would threaten the studios … to broadcast Pirates of the Caribbean 5: The Revenge of Salazar, Which is due to leave the US on May 26 if they refuse to pay the ransom requested . The information comes from The Hollywood Reporter, which reports that Bob Iger, the CEO of Disney, would have unveiled the alarming news to his teams on Monday in the day. If THR does not specify that it is Pirates of the Caribbean 5, which some have already seen , the Deadline website, however, claims that it is indeed the latter that is targeted here.
According to information circulating, the hackers would have asked for the ransom to be paid in bitcoins, a process characteristic of this kind of attack, indicating wanting to broadcast the first 5 minutes of the film, then squarely 20-minute slices, If their conditions were not fulfilled . Disney studios are not the first to be victims of this form of blackmail. Very recently, Netflix faced the same problem when a hacker threatened to make available the 10 episodes of the new Orange season several weeks before their release, scheduled for June 9th. Obviously, we do not know how much the hackers claimed at Disney, but Bob Iger made it clear that the studios refused to give in to blackmail and pay. So we just have to cross the fingers so that they quickly find a solution to avoid that Pirates of the Caribbean 5, which marks according to the director a return to the sources of the franchise , is found massively pirated before its official release in room ! What do you think ?

Pirates of the Caribbean 5 should be very close, in terms of tone and atmosphere, the very first film. The director gives us a little more details about it!
High hearts, fans of pirates and Jack Sparrow! Pirates of the Caribbean: The Revenge of Salazar promises us to plunge back into the franchise while returning to the roots of what made her successful. Enough to rejoice those who had been somewhat disappointed by La Fontaine de Jouvence and its rather wobbly intrigue. But the new opus also features new characters, although some of the protagonists, such as Will (Orlando Bloom) and Elizabeth (Keira Knightley), will be back in Pirates of the Caribbean 5 . However, it is through Henry (Brenton Thwaites) and Carina (Kaya Scodelario) that we will be this time embarked in the new crazy adventure of our favorite captain. And the couple should be as endearing as that formed by Will and Elizabeth at the time of the first films. Because yes, the meltynauts, if the Revenge of Salazar gives pride to the action and the humor, it also reserves a beautiful place to the emotion ! And who better than the co-director of the film, Joachim Rønning, to tell us about the tone of the film?
When it comes to naming the opus of the franchise he prefers, the director is moreover categorical: it is of course the very first who is at the top of the list. And inevitably, it is with the ingredients of Pirates of the Caribbean : The Curse of the Black Pearl in mind that he embarked on the realization of the fifth chapter of the adventures of Jack Sparrow. He tells Entertainment Weekly: ” It’s scary, it’s funny and, more than anything else, it’s a heart-warming comedy, and I really wanted to try to reinvent this structure and the dynamics between the characters . “. So yes, as you were told, Pirates of the Caribbean: The Revenge of Salazar seems to be the worthy heir of the first films at that level. But that’s not all, as Joachim Rønning also insists on an important theme of franchising, namely the love that the characters share and which makes them so endearing . ” It’s essentially a love story ,” he says. ” It ‘ s a vintage movie, yes, but it’ s about real people falling in love, with Jack Sparrow coming up from time to time and sowing the bazaar, It is important that the spectators can be invested in the other characters “. ” It’s essentially a love story ,” he says. ” It ‘ s a vintage movie, yes, but it’ s about real people falling in love, with Jack Sparrow coming up from time to time and sowing the bazaar, It is important that the spectators can be invested in the other characters “. ” It’s essentially a love story ,” he says. ” It ‘ s a vintage movie, yes, but it’ s about real people falling in love, with Jack Sparrow coming up from time to time and sowing the bazaar, It is important that the spectators can be invested in the other characters “. It is important that the audience can get involved in the other characters . “. It is important that the audience can get involved in the other characters . “.
And those other characters, in Pirates of the Caribbean 5 , are Carina and Henry, who represent the famous heart of the film . Joachim Rønning explains: ” When you find yourself in the middle of a big action scene, you need to rely on the characters to understand their vulnerability and find the heart of the story. Carina are embarking on a similar quest and find common ground because they are both looking for who they are, and I think that is an important part of the story. ” If the film is funny and full of action, it will not fail to play the card of emotion thanks to the two young heroes, supposed to take the place of Will and Elizabeth. Hopefully they will live up to the task! Especially that even Jack Sparrow should have changed a little bit in Pirates of the Caribbean 5 and that he risks stealing the show. Anyway, we are eager to get back to sea with these old and new protagonists! Do you look forward to getting to know Henry and Carina?
