POTC: On Stranger Tides (Summer 2011)



Set for a summer 2011 release the film will be the first in a new trilogy. A trilogy that will not be shot back to back, like with Dead Man's Chest and At World's End. Neither Keira Knightley or Orlando Bloom are expected to return as the film will focus on Jack Sparrow. The title "On Stranger Tides" could be based on the pirate novel of the same name. The book focuses on a main character who is forced into a piracy, where Black Beard takes them on adventures to dreamlike islands. It also mentions the Fountain of Youth, which was hinted at the end of the last film. British comedian Russell Brand (Sarah Marshall, Get Him To The Greek) has been rumored for the role of Jack Sparrow's brother. Brand has worked with Disney on Bedtime Stories and would make an excellent addition to the franchise.
