Keira Knightley Says No to Pirates 4?
Pirates of the Caribbean 4: On Stranger Tides (2011) Movie — By Nix on December 5, 2007
Or is that just an actor doing a pre-emptive “No” so they want the studio to jack up the paycheck? Hey, it’s not like it’s never happened before (re: the Spider-Man kids); in fact, it probably happens all the time when you’re talking about a movie franchise as lucrative as the “Pirates of the Caribbean” films. In any case, during a press conference for her new movie “Atonement”, someone asked Knightley about coming back for a “Pirates of the Caribbean 4″. Read her response below…
Says Knightley (via):
“I can’t imagine doing another one. That was an amazing experience, really was, totally extraordinary, but I think three for me is probably enough.”
Not exactly a “No, no way in Hell” reply. More of a, “Hmm, probably not, unless, you know, we’re talking ‘back up the brink truck to my Malibu house kind of paycheck here’.” At this point, I can’t see anyone who isn’t a total idiot hopping off the “Pirates” film if a fourth installment does end up happening.
And in any case, even if Knightley doesn’t come back, the “Pirates” producers already have the one person who really matters: Johnny Depp has said repeatedly that Yeah, he’d like to return as Captain Jack Sparrow. And really, when you have Jack, who else do you need?
Although it would be nice to have Elizabeth Swann back, too…

i love all the movies there has to be another one with all you in it, if not thats gonna suck!!!!!!!! you and orlando are so great and lets not foreget Captain Jack spparow!!!!! Please Stay and Make another movie…………
COME ON!!!ME AND MY FIREND ALEXIS LOVEPIRATES.MY FIREND ALEXIS SAID THAT IF YOU DON’T DO THE MOVIE POTC IS GOING TO SUK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!LOVE ALEXIS. & NATHALIA
You are probably not going to read this but if you do then I think you’re barking mad! You need to sighn up for POTC if there is to be another movie. Yes there is always Jack Sparrow but a lot of people are interested to find out what happens between you and Will. In the end you wait for Will with your son and then you see him. I would be relly excited to know what happens between that time. Obviously you got pregnant but what about later on? I really want to know what happens when Elizabeth’s son meets his father for the first time. If there is to be a fourth movie, it needs you.
Kiera pleaseee stayyy
the only reason most girls watch the movie is because they love you! and its great having a powerful woman like character. I mean like in Lord of the Rings none of the girls fight, except the one from Rohan. And she doesn’t even get to be a main character.
And I really only care about Elizabeth and Will. Jack is great and he’s on of my favorites. But I personally don’t want to watch him run around being stupid for 2hrs. He is an important character, he is funny, and I like him. But you cant have a whole movie with just him.
Personally the movies seeam like they are following the order of how piracy was dieing out. I think they should continue on that story line. And keep following history. Maybe include some other famous pirates like Blackbeaard, Jack Rackam (Calico Jack), Mary Reed, Anne Bonney, Bart Roberts, Edward Low, Thomas Tew, etc…
Or maybe Elizabeth joins the Flying Dutchman, with her son when he becomes a teenager. Or something.
But I think they NEEED you, and the THREE ORIGINAL characters.
Or it just will not be the same…..
Ohhh and I forgot but YOUR character is the Pirate King, and what happens to all the pirates?
And your character has a huge role. To just cut her and Will out would be a huge mistake. Of course everybody will go to see Pirates 4, but nobody would want to see Pirates 5. Because nobody wants to see just Jack. We want everybody. And what happens to Calypso? Does she destroy boats and things? Does Davy Jones come back? I mean if you meant for that to be the end of the trilogy. It was a horrible ending, its more of a endding saying there will be a sequal, because that endding leaves us hanging in our seat, waiting and wanting to see what will happen next. Similar to Pirates 2. It just some what endded, and there was a whole other story waiting to be made. Same with Pirates 3. I think like I said before that the movies should fallow the historic timeline.
OR
maybe have Jack meet back up with his ship, and his crew. And they all set of for a adventrure, maybe to help Will become human again. Or have Elizabeth and her son join them. I dont know but, all I know is you HAVEEEEE to be in this!!!!!!!!!!!
i will jump off the golden gate bridge if u dont come back. U play a big part in these movies and i will not go see the 4th movie if u are not in it.please please please please come back to do pirates of the caribbean 4.i will jump off a bridge if u do not do the 4th movie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG Keira PLEASE STAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!PLEASE PLEASE.ME and my fried Ariel love pirates alot we remembered almost evry word to every movie that u are in.
Honestly,
you have Jack and Barbossa.
And most likely Gibbs.
Speak no more, so long Keira.
YOU SUCK! You obviously don’t pay attention to any story lines! Gibbs was left on land and what romantic spark is there going to be if will and lizzie aren’tin it! Come On! THINK!
And Shakira,
I’d see any movie with just Jack in it.
Ah! And for people arguing that the Elizabeth/William romance is a key part of the movies… the two barely spoke in the third! it was a mere sub-sub-sub-sub-sub plot, after the brethren court and rescuing Jack and Bootstrap and defeating the EITC. So obviously the writerswere trying to write the romance of the the script by throwing E
