Since Chernobyl and The Last of Us, Craig Mazin has become one of the most popular screenwriters in Hollywood. In a recent interview with Los Angeles Time, he confirmed that he had worked on the script for the sixth installment of Pirates of the Caribbean, with Ted Elliot, who co-wrote the first four films in the franchise (of which there are five).
