And I say that with love!,” congratulations to Morgan Wallen he picked up the award for Top Country Male Artist, and Top Country Duo/Group went to Dan + Shay.

Jerry Bruckheimer should be spending most of his time talking about the long-delayed release of Top Gun: Maverick, but instead there is more attention centered around another big franchise on his resume, Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean. In a new interview, the producer revealed that it is extremely unlikely that Johnny Depp would appear in a potential Pirates 6 and revealed the Margot Robbie project rumored in 2020 is still in the works. “The future is yet to be decided.” Adding that they are working on TWO Pirates scripts…one WITH her and one WITHOUT her.
