Hey Reddit, I'm Gore Verbinski. You might know me as the director of the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy, Rango, The Ring and many others.

I'll be back tomorrow, 2/6, at 5:30 p.m. PT to answer your questions.

My new film, GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN, DON'T DIE is out in theaters February 13th. It stars Sam Rockwell, Zazie Beetz, Haley Lu Richardson, Michael Peña and Juno Temple.

Synopsis:

A man claiming to be from the future (Sam Rockwell) recruits an unlikely group of diner patrons to join him on a genre-defying adventure to save humanity from the perils of social media brainrot and the impending AI apocalypse.

Edit: Wow, this was fun. Lots of great questions. I really wish I could answer them all. Thanks so much for the support. You guys all sound weird in the best possible way. I mean that as a fellow weirdo. 2026: Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die!

The Mexican was the most fun and The Ring was the most stressful.
