VIDEO: Captain Jack Sparrow Delivers Message to Comic-Con
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Disney, Action, Adaptation, Adventure, Comedy, Upcoming Releases, Videos
The film may not open until next year, but it’s never too early to start drinking rum.
In this clip that debuted at Comic-Con 2010, Captain Jack Sparrow (a.k.a. Johnny Depp) gives audiences a hint - or does he? - about what we should expect from during the fourth Pirates of the Caribbean installment.
“You may have also heard whisperings and rumors that Jack Sparrow will be recruiting a crew to undertake a voyage to the Fountain of Youth. Not true, course not. But even if it weren’t not true, you wouldn’t be interested in joining me - would you? Eh? No, thought not. I do admit that there’d be varied and substantial dangers along the way including, but not limited, to zombies, cutthroats, mermaids, and the vicious and vivacious Penelope Cruz - which is why I’m not going. Impossible to find the place anyway. No one knows where it is. Plus, I’d have to have a bloody map…or a Bloody Mary…or both.”

Johnny Depp Surprises D23 Audience
Johnny Depp, in his Pirates of the Caribbean mien, rode a pirate ship into the Disney D23 Expo yesterday. As it turns out, Jack Sparrow wasn’t just there to delight crowds: he had an announcement to make.
It was in this fashion that Disney chose to unveil the name for the newest Pirates installment. The fourth in the franchise will be named Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides and sails to theaters in the summer of 2011.

Johnny Depp Attached to More Disney Projects
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Disney, Action, Adaptation, Adventure, Sequels, Casting, Celeb News, Upcoming Releases
Johnny Depp has just now officially sold his soul to the Mouse.
After starring in several blockbusters for Disney, the Oscar-nominated actor is ready to go back for more. The studio has just announced that the money maker will be starring in not one…not two…but three more projects for them.
In addition to reprising his role as Captain Jack Sparrow (yes, there will be a fourth Pirates of the Caribbean installment), Depp will be taking on the character of Tonto in an adaptation of The Lone Ranger.
Johnny will also - surprise! - appear in yet another Tim Burton film. Although it was already suspected that he would participate in Alice in Wonderland, his signature was only recently placed on the dotted line. Depp will now be joining Mia Wasikowska as the Mad Hatter.
Alice - which will use the same technology implemented in Beowulf - is slated to hit theaters in 2010.

Disney’s ‘Jungle Cruise’ Takes Shape
Posted by David Onda Categories: Disney, Adventure, Family, Comedy, Filmmaking, Rumors, Scripts, Upcoming Releases
In the same vein as Disney’s transformation of the Disneyland attraction Pirates of the Caribbean from ride to movie, Walt Disney Pictures is currently developing the script for a Jungle Cruise movie. Box Office Mojo recently talked to WDP Chairman Dick Cook, and he had this to say about the project:
“There will be a family involved. The skipper will play a very important role. He’ll be more of an Indiana Jones kind of guy, with a little Jack Sparrow in him, who’s going to be able to take this family on an adventure that they never dreamed they were going to be on when they first got on board. In true Disney fashion, it will definitely have the adventure and the intensity—but also the heart and the fun. We hope we have a good outline of where we want to go and what we want to do with it in the next year.”
I can only hope that by having a “family involved,” they don’t mean that it will be anything like the absolutely cringe-inducing The Haunted Mansion film. Not Eddie Murphy’s finest hour.
