News on the already highly anticipated sequel to last summer’s Pirates of the Caribbean has come to the surface thanks to sources over at DarkHorizons and ComingSoon.net and here is what the news is:
DarkHorizons reports news from a scooper that was at the annual meeting hosted by NATO (North American Theatre Owners) and he got the following from a Buena Vista rep:
He went on to talk about the sequel(s) to Pirates and said the entire cast and production team would be back. He said production would begin shortly on Pirates of the Caribbean 2 & 3 and they would be released six months apart in 2006. This was news to me as I had only heard their was going to be one sequel.
Now, while that is great news, but not exactly a shocker ComingSoon.net has some intereting news saying that they have confirmed with a very reliable source that Johnny Depp’s wish has come true. Rolling Stones’ Keith Richards will indeed play Captain Jack Sparrow’s dad in the sequel. As you probably know by now, Depp modeled Sparrow in the first film after the musician.
