nurktwin 2,143 Report post Posted May 10, 2011 LOS ANGELES – "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" is still weeks away from opening, but Johnny Depp and producer Jerry Bruckheimer are already thinking about a fifth "Pirates" film. So what would the 47-year-old actor need to transform himself into the rum-swigging, swashbuckling Capt. Jack Sparrow again? "Essentially the same ingredients that have gone into each and every one, especially this one," he says. "I would be in if it was right, for sure." Bruckheimer is already at work on a fifth "Pirates" script. But Depp also has other projects on his plate, including a cameo in the big-screen adaptation of the 1980s TV hit that made him a star, "21 Jump Street." He'd heard rumors about the film before being approached for the role, "then it finally came up and the dates were right and it was a gas," he says. "It was a real great experience and I was happy to do it." He also has "The Rum Diary" set for release in October, and he'll soon get to work on "The Lone Ranger" with three-time "Pirates" director Gore Verbinski. "We are in the throes of heavy-duty development, script development," he says of "The Lone Ranger." "It's coming along very nicely. I think it's going to be something we are going to be proud of." First, though, is the latest "Pirates" installment, which opens May 20 and reunites Depp with one of his heroes, Keith Richards. "To be able to bring him back into the `Pirates' fold, where he most certainly belongs, was a gas," Depp says. "Just spending a couple days sharing a trailer, it was as close, I suppose, as being in a rock `n' roll band with him as you can get." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nurktwin 2,143 Report post Posted May 10, 2011 I think most movies shouldn't even try a 3rd sequel. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
