Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides

Pirates of the Caribbean is back with a whole new film opening up this Friday May 20, 2011. Will this end Thor's #1 streak in the box office? I think so. When Pirates of the Caribbean comes to theaters raging horny Johnny Depp fans come to theaters with pockets full of cash. This time Disney has Rob Marshall directing "On Stranger Tides". Will Rob do the job for Disney and delivery a blockbuster hit? The films he directed before was Annie, Chicago, and Nine. I guess Captain Jack Sparrow will have a nice dance number in this movie. So count on a different feel for the movie.

The last three movie budgeted at $865,000,000 and gross revenue at $2,681,440,232. With those odds I would create two more movies. Oh wait, thats what they did. Two more Pirates of the Caribbeans will be releasing in years to come. Check out the trailer and stay tuned for a review this weekend.






Some fun facts:
Johnny Depp said he agreed to star in this, before "there was a script or anything".

While filming in London in October 2010, Johnny Depp received a letter from a local 9-year old schoolgirl, telling him her classmates needed help to 'mutiny' against her teachers. He turned up with almost no warning at the school in full Sparrow outfit in support.

Penélope Cruz was pregnant throughout production, but it wasn't noticeable until September, 2010. As Penélope's baby bump grew, it caused some difficulties in wardrobe, so the producers enlisted the help of Cruz's younger sister, Mónica Cruz. According to reports, Penélope filmed the close-up shots, while Mónica doubled for her in the long-distance scenes as the wardrobe department had struggled to hide the pregnancy.
