Fourth movie named Pirates of the Carribean: On Stranger Tides. Depp appeared in full Sparrow get up in front of fans with a couple Disney executives and announced the title and release date (Summer 2011). Depp will also star as Tonto in the Jerry Bruckheimer-produced The Lone Ranger, that begins production soon.
[quote]ANAHEIM, California — Nobody puts on a show like Walt Disney, a point proven once again Friday morning (September 11) in a massive event featuring appearances by Johnny Depp, Nicolas Cage, Miley Cyrus and big news on the future of the "Pirates of the Caribbean," "National Treasure" and other franchises.
Walt Disney Studios Chairman Dick Cook took the stage after a live orchestra presented a tribute to Disney films new and old, addressing a crowd of 5,000 people at the Anaheim Convention Center as part of the studio's massive D23 fan convention.
Among the big news announced by Cook as he looked into the crystal ball at Disney's next several years on film:
» "Pirates of the Caribbean 4" finally has a title ("On Stranger Tides") and a release date (summer 2011). Depp thrilled the crowd by "sailing" onstage as Captain Jack Sparrow, staying in character the whole time while asking Cook where he could get some rum. [/quote]
Nobody gives a shit about National Treasure returning, so I didn't include part of that story. Anyway, Zac Efron.

[quote]Efron, who turned 21 last week, has reportedly agreed to a £6 million deal to appear alongside Johnny Depp in the fourth instalment of the popular Disney franchise.
The deal also ties him to a fourth High School Musical Movie, something he had said he would previously not do.Efron has found international fame in the role of Troy, the school basketball star, but had said it was "time to grow up".
Thousands of screaming fans turned out to greet Efron when he arrived at the London premiere of High School Musical 3 along with co-star and girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens.
Efron is also expected to star in a remake of 80s favourite Footloose, which originally starred Kevin Bacon.
Depp, 45, currently filming Tim Burton's adaptation of Alice in Wonderland where he plays The Mad Hatter, will reportedly make £30 million reprising his role as Captain Jack Sparrow.[/quote]

Oh fuck not Zac Efron.
:suicide:
I love how he said that it was "time to grow up" with this role.
Also he's supposedly going to be Sparrow's assistant, or something.
If he's going to be an abused lackey/comic relief or something, I wouldn't mind too much. I don't want him outshining Depp with his pretty boy stuff.
Get in about pirates 4 but maybe not so much about Efron.
I don't see that happening, he's too big a "star". They ended on such a high note in Pirates 3, why are they going to spoil it by bringing it back/signing up Efron.
I don't see any progress here.
gay pirate
Dick Cook lol

Guess I could have put my wording better, I meant as in Disney hopefully don't overuse Efron's character in the movie, which resulting in him stealing the spotlight more. A lame example on this is like on Transformers 2 where the two idiot robots get more screentime than Optimus Prime.

I haven't seen the third. Any good?
I fuckin' loved Bill Nighy as Davy Jones. What a brilliant performance/character.
Something tells me this movie won't be as good as the others, and will just be a fail cash in.
As long as Depp and Rush return it's all good.

Unless Zac Efron gets shot by cannons simultaneously for the whole movie while dribbling a basketball and dancing like an ass.
Id watch that.

Rush probably isn't in it.
Well.. at the end of the third, they were going to find the fountain of youth..
Anything with Zac Efron is automatic shit.
Sucks.
Cuz i actually enjoyed the previous ones.
i haven't seen or really know anything about high school musical so his presence doesn't really disturb me too much
it's not the actor, it's the role. I don't think disney is going to be making jack sparrow (or any pirates) get into a dancing number
I actually liked this series, until they made the second one...fine, I can forgive the second one but after that it just became stupid.
I do not even know who the other actor is.
Johnny Depp is 45!?
Really?!
Damn well maybe Efron won't be so bad in it, hes a competent enough actor its just that most of what he's been in has been crap.
the title confused me
