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.

    I think they should take her out because will left her and their son to go off to sea. I also think that they should have Will and Jack team up as well as a girl pirate for Jack to be introduced. They also think make their son a character in the possible 5th movie and have him grown up.

  • Orlando bloom is a talentless piece of shit.
    Thank god that son of a whore is not in the movie.
    If keira has any sense , she will try to get in.
    Depp is the only one who matters.

  • mary says:

    I am personally hope that they are getting rid of knightly – she sucks! She took up way too much Depp time in my opinion. Hearing here deliver some of the lines was absolutely painful! In person she comes off as a stuck up bitch who thinks way too much of herself. Try some humility Kiera!!! Good riddance!

    • nuna says:

      u do know her lines are produced by WRITERS

      and she’s just doing her job obviously
      if the director didnt like his character as being a “bitch” obviously he would have said something

  • Andi says:

    “havent liked her since she left jack to the Kracken” ???? Youre kiddin me.. Its a script! lol…you all need to calm down a little. And I agree, Depp is the only wone who matters, him and barbosa

  • sweetgummie says:

    I’m kinda disappointed to hear that she’s not coming back because unlike most of you, I enjoyed the love story between her and Wil. So yes, this is pretty sad. I think she added a nice feminine touch to the film, and without her, there’s no feminine point of view. It’s all just guy pirates and stuff like that. If she really decides to stay out of the fourth, at least get another girl pirate to balance things out.

    thnkyou!

    I agree with the female pirate thing, however I think Kiera and Orlando’s journey and story is pretty much over. Sure we can have a little cameo orsomething, have them stop on the island that **SPOILER ALERT if you havent seen the last movie or didnt wait til after the credits— Elizabeth is raising Her and Will’s son on** But other than that it should be a wholy new adventure. And I think the idea of Barbosa and Sparrow fighting over a treasure AND a woman neither of them will probably get would make a great movie. The Fountain of Youth and this obssesion with immortality would be a great plot idea. And the woman would have to be equal in EVERY way to the two Captains of the Black Pearl. Someone along the lines of the one pirate girl with the hat in the 1st movie.

  • Sean says:

    Keira Knightley needs to be in Pirates of the Caribbean, everything about her is needed, the movie will be killed without Keira Knightley, Orland Bloom and Johnny Depp, look at the Mummy 3 Brendan Fraser signed back on board but without Rachel Weisz the movie was doomed, fans dont like it when you change the script, this blog has just been infested with jealous women who are jealous of Keira Knightley, the majority of fans want her back, she is a great actress and Pirates of the Caribbean needs Elizabeth Swann!
