Caribbean Pirates 4

Well, it turns out that Disney is pushing a fourth PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN film. Coming Soon caught up with Jerry Bruckheimer and spoke to him a little about that franchise, and their planned adaptation of THE LONE RANGER. According to Bruckheimer, the priority is most definitely “Pirates.” He said that “it’s a great franchise… A beloved character and Johnny’s really excited about coming back to Captain Jack. He certainly is interested in Tonto, but Disney’s priority is to get ‘Pirates’ made first. You never know what’s going to happen, but they would like it.” He also added that the two original writers, Terry Rossio and Ted Elliot, were “writing ‘Pirates’ as we speak,” and he said it was “funny” and a “whole new way of going”.

So how are we feeling about this? I guess you can never get enough Johnny Depp as Captain Jack, really. It’s just the small matter of all the shit that they pad around him. He’s like LeBron James except not a really, really sore loser.
