‘Pirates Of The Caribbean’: What’s The Fate Of The Franchise?

‘Pirates Of The Caribbean’: What’s The Fate Of The Franchise?

Pirates of the Caribbean On Stranger TidesJohnny Depp is looking to hold off after ‘On Stranger Tides’ breaks box-office records, but a seaworthy script could rope him back in. While “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides” opened to $90.1 million this weekend, showing the franchise has perhaps sprung a leak domestically in its fourth installment, the new film set a five-day international opening record of $256.3 million.

Disney is reportedly convinced this latest “Pirates” could pass the $654 million international total for 2007′s “At World’s End.” The takeaway from all this box-office chatter is we likely haven’t seen the last of the swashbuckling series.

He recently made clear he doesn’t want to dive back in any time soon. “It boils down to story, script and filmmaker,” Depp told sources. “It’s not something where I would say, ‘Let’s shoot it next month to get it out by Christmas 2012.’ We should hold off for a bit. They should be special, just like they are special to me.”

Meanwhile, according to sources, the 37-year-old actress told the Cannes crowd she’s not fixated on youth: “I think birthdays are always something to celebrate,” she said. “I’m looking forward to every step of the way.

Johnny Depp Can’t See In 3D

Johnny DeppAccording to sources Johnny Depp won’t be watching the latest installment of the Pirates Of The Caribbean franchise, at least not in 3D. The actor revealed to sources at the junket for the film that he is unable to see the new Disney film in all of its 3d glory. He told sources he always finds it difficult to watch himself and his excuse this time is that he actually can’t. he is unable to view the film being in 3D. He has a weird eye as he put it.
It just doesn’t work. He has never been able to see anything like that but he has never seen anything normally either. As normal people you know, cause one of my eyes doesn’t see very much. And with reports tht Disney is looking to make two more movies presumably also shot in 3D it appears the star won’t be able to watch any of those films either.
In addition, he told sources that he has always been uncomfortable watching himself anyway as stated above, he feels much more at ease just experiencing the process and going through that and then just letting it go, it becomes somebody else’s dilemma then. The film will be in 3D in theaters on May the 20th, 2011. And, although he won’t be able to watch it he is encouraging other individuals to go see it in theaters. He tells sources you won’t be disappointed. In fact he feels as though it’s the best installment of the franchise yet!
