Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides may have underwhelmed the critics but its hefty box-office haul, not to mention the durability of Depp’s now iconic pirate, has secured a sequel.
Captain Jack Sparrow’s as yet unnamed fifth outing, rumoured to be scripted by Men In Black 3’s Jeff Nathanson, may lack both director and cast but is scheduled for release in July 2015.
The 2015 summer schedule is packed with potential big-hitters including the return of The Star Wars Saga with Episode VII, Avatar 2, D.C’s Justice League and sequels for Mission Impossible, The Hunger Games, Tintin and more! It’s hard to imagine Captain Jack not wanting a share of that booty

I thought the plot became too convoluted for parts 2 and 3, the character of Jack was over-used.
Maybe some fresh blood can get us excited again – let’s hope so!

That would be interesting if… actually, it won’t be in any case. The first movie was brillant, but the others were so incredibly tedious I’d rather watch paint dry than anything from that franchise again.

Going back and re-watching the first one I’m surprised by how enigmatic and vaguely malevolent Jack is, but by the second film he’s been reduced to slapstick.
Maybe a prequel would be the way to go… or maybe… hell, you’re right. They should leave it 🙂
