Ayo Edebiri says she truly wasn’t making an attempt to stir the pot along with her publish about Elon Musk inflicting her loss of life threats.
The Emmy-winning actress took to her Instagram Story on Wednesday, writing, “Cease making my IG tales information. I’m simply tryna have a foolish goofy time.”
Edebiri’s newest remark got here lower than a day after she took to her social media to say that she bought “insane loss of life threats and racial slurs” due to the billionaire.

On the time, Musk reacted to the publish, writing on X, “Disney sucks.”
“Simply remembering once I bought a number of the most insane loss of life threats and racial slurs of my life (idk if it’s the #1 second, however for certain prime 3) for a faux reboot of a film I had by no means even heard of due to this man,” Edebiri wrote on her Instagram Story Tuesday.
“LMAO. So not solely is he double Sieg Heil-ing fascist, he’s an fool however anyway,” she added, referencing Musk’s controversial hand gestures at an occasion forward of Donald Trump’s inauguration in January.
When her publish began to make headlines, that’s when Edebiri clarified she was simply having a “foolish goofy time” with the Musk publish.
As for the way forward for the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, it stays in limbo as a number of concepts have been swirling lately — some that contain Margot Robbie and others that see Depp returning. Although Jerry Bruckheimer shared final 12 months that the following installment will probably be a reboot, which might most likely imply an all-new solid.
The final Pirates of the Caribbean film to hit the massive display screen was in 2017 — Useless Males Inform No Tales — and it starred Depp, Javier Bardem and Kaya Scodelario. As for whether or not Depp would even wish to return to his iconic position as Captain Jack Sparrow stays a query as he’s been largely out of the highlight following his libel trial in opposition to Amber Heard in 2022.
