Johnny’s In, but Keira is Still out of Pirates 4

Pirates of the Caribbean 4: On Stranger Tides (2011) Movie — By Nix on September 26, 2008 |

Keira Knightley has already said previously that she doubts she’ll ever be returning to the “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise, and she’s repeated that train of thought one more time. Although Knightley couches her response to the question in very glowing and positive terms (”amazing”, “wonderful”, “magical”, “lots and lots of money” — okay, maybe not so much the last one), she’s reiterated again that it’s very doubtful she would be slipping on Elizabeth Swann’s corset for one more swashbuckling adventure. One should keep in mind, though, that judging by the question posed to Knightley by MTV (in the video below), that her response was probably made before the official announcement by Johnny Depp and Disney that they were indeed going forward with a fourth “Pirates” movie. At least, that’s how I read it.

Knightley said this to MTV:

“They were completely amazing, but I think I can’t wear corsets for a while,” she said. “I had an amazing journey with those three films. But I think it’s [time to do] different things.”

Again, listen to the questioner’s question closely. I believe this interview was taped before yesterday’s official announcements by Disney about a fourth “Pirates” movie. Would the fact that the movie is now official change Knightley’s mind?

Below: Video of that interview.

    • topazfairy says:

      I think you should go easy on her she did a really good job. why don’t you like her?

      • Lisa says:

        yes she did a good job but its getting old if they keep doing the whole will and liz thing its like doing the same crap over and over..and as far as the “no love story” thing goes..you dont know that. there was alot of other guys in the crew…remember when raggetti(how ever u spell it..the one with no eye) did the cylipso thing? well it seemed to me he really knew what he was doing..maybe they’ll bring someone in for him and he’ll have a bigger roll in the next movie or maybe barbossa will meet someone(but i somehow dont see that happening) or even a girl version of jack and they hate eachother and fight through most of the movie but then they fall in love and sail the seas together.

        • ashley says:

          yes I def agree that there should be like a woman pirate common tho Jack’s character to give it that love hate relationship. like a push and pull deal, they love to hate each other and it makes things excitng.

  • Gothic Mosher says:

    She wont be missed
    But i sttill think that they should stop the POTC franchise as they are pumping as much out of it as possible to, inevitably, ruin a perfectly good trilogy,
    Well lets just grin and vare it until it is released.
    Fingers crossed >_<

  • topazfairy says:

    I think that keira should stay in the POTC. she and orlando make such a cute couple. does any 1 know if orlando is still in the movie too?

  • barbra shop says:

    i dont think he is but i mean they should both come back they made the movie. jacks funny but u need the romance too

  • Paige says:

    I agree with everyone that agrees the movie will be better without elizabeth. i hated her every since she left jack to the kracken. no, will wont be in the movie. i am so excited. i hope they get someone that actually deserves jack. he is soooo hot and funny.

  • Lisa says:

    so i just found a site that says POTC4 WILL BE RELEASED MAY 20th, 2009 MYVIDEOSTORE.COM i found it on a diffrent blog site someone commented it to a blog..i know..i didnt beleive it at first either, matter of fact i thought it was going to be porn haha, but it wasnt just type pirates of the carribean 4 in the search and it will take you to a thing that says that.

    As far as my thoughts go on not having knighly and bloom in the next one, im looking forward to it. they were good in the first 2 but by the 3rd one i was starting to get sick of them.and whats with her kissing just about everyone but barbossa, then they die, its like she had the “kiss of death” lol lets see..Captin jack..eatting by the krackin on the pearl..noringtin..stabed by bootstrap on the dutchmen..sao fang got all f*ed up by whatever..will..stabbed by davey joans. That girl was just killing off att the guys. not to mention it leaves open spots for new people i’ve thought about it alot at theres so much that could still happen with captin jack and captin barbossa, if theres new people added, that they might even do a 5th. i dont see why not. with all the money these movies bring in they’d be dumb not to keep going with this. but if they do end it at the 4th i def. think they should do one more with at potc: the begining type thing. if you really listen to alot of the things they say in the 3 movies they mention alot of things that happend in the past before the 1st one. Ex:: Tia Dalma tried killing him they mention in the 3rd one. The “great insalt” sao fang mentioned. and i’d like to hear the story of how javey joans got the pearl for jack(which was mentioned in the 2nd movie) and about captin jack and barbossas friendship and the falling out they had ect…. there so much that they can still do, I say push it as far as possible!

  • Cyndi says:

    I say they should just kill her character off… It would make the movie so much more better… not because of knightley… but yeah it’d be awesome

  • Crystal says:

    OMG! POTC 4 just wont be the same without her, OR orlando bloom (he’s so hot).
    But i agree, i rekon they should bring in a girl pirate that falls in love with Jack.
    I actully wanted Elizabeth to fall in love with him.
    But they SHOULD kill her off, it would make the movie better i rekon.
    But what are you gonna do? lol

  • MinutesAlone says:

    I am not really dissapointed to hear that Keira is un-intrested in upcoming fourth sequel of hugely popular blockbuster Pirates of Carribean.Me thinks,the movie will go still smoothly without Lizzy,C’mon! We’ve got our favorite;Captain Jack Sparrow! What more do we need? ;) Jack’s never gonna let us feel absence of lizzy in the movie, i can assure you(im no director though lol) but it is better if she returns…They’re a team! They’re gonna have to do it for fans.It’s their job,without fans/us they’re cheap face! :D

  • Ok, can hear you lot, but to low middle-class us, their films are great for an evening in with the kids as family on a budget. They give us a short Disney break to those who can’t go to Paris. They will well be voted as best actors/actresses of the people! Wishing them well, ginger
