Summary
Ayo Edebiri said she received “insane death threats” after Elon Musk shared a false report claiming she would replace Johnny Depp in a Pirates of the Caribbean reboot.
The rumor, posted by a right-wing account with no industry ties, was never confirmed by credible sources. Musk, who commented “Disney sucks,” amplified the hoax.
Edebiri later called Musk an idiot and a fascist for promoting fascist right-wing rhetoric.
Meanwhile, producer Jerry Bruckheimer confirmed a reboot is in development but did not confirm Depp’s involvement.

That’s the bottom line, isn’t it? Everyone deserves one’s respect, no one deserves one’s worship.
I would argue the work we’re looking for is “dignity”. Too many people disagree on what “respect” means.
