Pirates of the Caribbean 4 Possible Plot Details

By Nix | June 20, 2007 (1:16 am) | More: Movie News, Pirates of the Caribbean 4 (2011) Movie

The good fellas over at Cinema Blend thinks they know what the sure-to-be-made (big piles of money will make uncertainties VERY certain) “Pirates of the Caribbean 4″ sequel will be all about, and who is coming back and who isn’t. (Hint: Johnny Depp is coming back. Like, DUH. They can’t make a “Pirates” hamburger without asking this guy to front it; he’s that associated with the franchise by now.) So what’s Captain Jack Sparrow going to be up to in the fourth installment? Flying, diving, searching — you know, pirate stuff.

Says Cinema Blend:

That’s right, Pirates 4 will cast aside Will and Elizabeth to make it an all Jack Sparrow movie. That won’t be the only change Disney is planning to make when the series continues though. Our scooper says, “the ending of Pirates 3, the fountain of youth story might not be the only story they might used the next pirate’s film. The fountain story could used in another form to introduce the story for Pirates 4… the next film might be a departure from the same formula of the last three movies as well, meaning that Jerry Bruckheimer could be planning to enter the realm of Science Fiction this time around and it could be the heart of a new trilogy with Jack Sparrow and his crew of misfits. Some of the brainstorming going around involves some Jules Verne type of scenarios involving some pretty big flying machines, a man who wants to rule more than just the ocean, a encounter with the most famous and dangerous pirate of all, a race to get to a lost world (Hint, Hint) and Jack and his crew going to where no pirate has gone before (No, its not space but Disney had made animated movie about this place before with Michel J Fox voicing one of the characters).”

CB’s scooper also tells them that the Mouse plans the movie sometime between 2009 and 2011, which means there is a possibility it might never happen at all. When enough time has passed, will Depp want to come back, even for the quoted $35-40 million payday?

Then again, that is a lot of money…

Ya um that’s uncool knightly and bloom need to be in the fourth movie or it won’t make as much money think about it jack isn’t jack without will and elizabeth. He won’t have anyone to betray.! Seriously I think they should just pay more for knightly and bloom to act and it would be a profitable movie..

 
becky on December 8, 2007

I agree.POTC3 leaves you wondering what will happen w/Will&Elizabeth. I,& I’m sure many others,would like to know.I really hope they make POTC4,I know I(& many others)would(will)go see it!

 
Jonathan Tomko on December 13, 2007

Pirates 4, are you kidding me! That would be so COOOOOOOOOOOL if they made not only a 4th one but even a 5 and 6. Like Star Wars 6 movies, but the Pirates series would be 10 times BETTER, even better then the spider-man series!!!!!!! I do also think that they should come back and be in the 4th movie and the rest of the series. Yes, I’m talking about Will Turner and Elizabeth Turner now that their married i should say. The idea of doing a different story line for movies 4,5 and 6 and doing different effects and stuff is sweeet! It would be nice to have Jack Sparrow and Hecker Barbossa battle out for the Black Pearl and for freedom of Inturnal life such as the Fountain of Youth. But then you got Will and Elizabeth who just might want the same for themselfs and battle out not only Jack But Barbossa to! Or maybe once again those two will help Jack because after all Jack needs a ship and the Flying Dutchman is the only one he can get for now. But then Jack always has his ideas and ways of doing things. Plus the next series could go back in time to see how everyone came about, to see Jack in early years and Barbossa and so forth, to leanr more about everybody even on why Jack and Barbossa fight all the time and what caused them to, are they brothers? or just best friends trying to get the same once of them wants to be the only one that has that life. Who knows but the only thing that sucks is i have to wait to see it =( it would be nice if they came out with the 4th movie in 2009 or 2010. And i wonder who this Pirate is the most fearious of them all, hmmmmmmmm who could the new enemy be i wonder? I know theres more to Jacks story about him there has to be, come on you know? This series is def the best movies series that Walt Disney has ever made, i’m a big fan of him, his theme parks and his movies but my fav are the pirate movies and Johnny Depp you are the MAN! Can’t wait for the series to continue, i understand why their waiting so long to make a new one cause so it is good, i don’t blame them for doing that. If there is anything you can tell me about the next movies please email me hurricane914@verizon.net yo ho yo ho a pirates life for me!!!!!!!! p.s. great job with the movies so far love them!!!!

 
Jack Sparrow on December 23, 2007

Whats a movie? Is it some kind of rum????????

 
Jackie on December 25, 2007

making a 4th pirates movie i think would be awesome…but the plot doesn’t sound that cool.Well hopefully this talk about what the movie is going
to turn out like is just gossip.

 
NATHALIA on December 28, 2007

I THINK MAKING A PIRATES4 WILL BE AWESOME!!!!!BUT IT WON’T BE THE SAME WITHOUT WILL & ELIZABETH.BUT IT STILL BE AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!I LOVE PIRATES!!!!!:)

 
amanda on December 29, 2007

they can’t let will and elizebeth be in it without their son…member after the credits it showed their son!!!!!!!!!!idk….but there needs to be a forth one! the has to be some love action with davy jones and collipso in there!!! the move will have to be like 4 hours 2 fit everything in! but i dont care…i just want c a 4ty potc!!!

 
Ashley on December 29, 2007

I personally think that they should release Pirates 4 as soon as possible. I would like to find out more about jack and his dads relationship. In Pirates 3 he did not seem to happy to see his father. Will should also strike a deal with Callipso and have him bound to the sea, but Elizabeth can come with him if she so chooses. Just my opinion.

 
Kathryn on December 29, 2007

I love POTC. I will be the first to admit that without Johnny Depp’s notorious Jack Sparrow the movie would not have lived to see POTC 2. But after three movies of everyone growing to love the bond between Orlando Bloom’s Will Turner and Kiera Knightly’s Elizabeth Swann, the director’s would be hanging Johnny Depp out to dry by creating a fourth movie without the love story. The reason Pirates took the nation by storm was because of the action, witty banter, plot, and romance. It was a great mix of something for everyone. The idea of a fourth movie is truly inspired, but without Orlando and Kiera the movie is doomed. The plot lacks the charm. Johnny Depp plays a great Sparrow, but to put it bluntly, he is a slimeball of a pirate! Which makes him that much more loveable, but the charm of the movie was entrusted to the courageous heart of Will Turner and the hopeful eyes of Elizabeth Swann. The way that Bloom says “Elizabeth” in a way that sends chills up and down the spine of everyone in the audience is what made Pirates a household favorite. When thinking of Pirates I don’t just think of Johnny Depp but of the three that made Pirates a classic!
My idea of the perfect fourth movie would be to follow all characters. After seeing the third movie a rumor went around that stated, “if after ten years at see the one he loves waits for him the curse of being captain is let go. Will could be free.” That was a rumor i hoped was true. If Sparrow found the fountain of youth, got some elixer for will Keira and their son, stabbed his heart, became captain of the Dutchman then everyone could be happy!! That would be a real hoot of a story too! That doesn’t even have to happen. It is just the idea that Will and Elizabeth are together that is important to me and millions of others out there. I need to know that if a fourth comes out they won’t screw up the good name of PIRATES OF THE CARIBEAN! Find a way to get Keira and Orlando on board and supply us with a non-sad, Disney-like, happy ending. Isn’t that what Disney is supposed to do best… happy! The whole seeing her every ten years thing is not happy… got it! Fix it or don’t do another movie… the whole cast or nothing… I love pirates but i refuse to watch someone screw it up without the entire cast!

A concerned (slightly obsessed) fan

 
Shakira on December 30, 2007

It defenitivly will NOT be as good without Will and Elizabeth. The 3rd movie leaves us hanging for will and elizabeth.

And don’t do anything on Atlantis, I mean its a ANIMATED movie. That would just ruin everything. And that would be like tieying Atlantis and Pirates together, and they shouldnt be together

 
Jacqueline on January 4, 2008

Ok I think that if the 4th pirates movie is all about Jack Sparrow that not alot of people will go and see it. One reason is because watching Jack run around all over the world isn’t something that I want to go see. Another reason is that Will and Elizabeth need to be in the film because Jack, Will, and Elizabeth are the movie. Not just Jack!! If Will and Elizabeth are not in the 4th movie I wont go see it. In the 3rd movie we see what Jack is going to do, but with Will and Elizbeth you leave us hanging with them having a son. I mean I want to know what’s going to happen to them next. With Jack you can always tell that he will get into some kind of trouble but not with Will and Elizabeth. I think that you need to write something with all three of them in the movie. Not just one!!

 
Lori on January 5, 2008

It did say in the DVD that Will and Elizabeth’s story has yet to be told… I took that as a foreshadow that there would be a 4th. I hope so…

 
DONT MESS WITH JESS on January 5, 2008

That sux
mind my lanuage i love the movie but with out Orlando that is not cool
But My 2 Little Sisters will B happy…….
Jacqueline and Shakira i agree with u both

 
Watcher of Movies on January 6, 2008

Yeah… it pretty much sounds like crap to me. But of course they’ll wind up getting my $15 after it finally comes out on DVD.

 
POTC on January 6, 2008

i think… that their should be a fourth… i mean like if will is supposed to be the “flying dutchman”, then isnt he only allowed to visit elizabeth only one day over ten years. what would happen if he broke his vow and decided to stay with elizabeth… he would get all weird like the first flying dutchman, right. Even though, what is jack wanted to be flying dutchman and intends on killing will for the prize. so wut, would will and elizabeth have a kid or something who knows… but will and elizabeth should be in the 4th movie or it wouldnt be a fouth movie at all..

 
Piratequeen on January 9, 2008

I have to disagree with some of the posters above — I would rather the fourth movie NOT have Will & Elizabeth. Their story is over (SPOILER) now that they’re happily married with a kid, plus the very last (post credits) scene of Pirates 3 was so beautiful and touching. It would ruin their story to add any more to it. Just let it end there, please!

What I want to see more of is Jack and Barbossa. I absolutely love their conflicted relationship, and there simply wasn’t enough of it with Will & Liz’s love story consuming all that screen time. Give us a Jack & Barbossa buddy picture, with lots of comedy and maybe a new love interest, but PLEASE no more Will & Elizabeth!

 
Scott on January 11, 2008

They left it open for a 4th one. But then there was that bit after the credits. And how are you gonna have that much of Elizabeth and Will if Will can only come ashore every 10 years. Unless Will can somehow undo his duty to the ship by somehow getting to the fountain of youth.

 
Taylor on January 17, 2008

Johnny Depp is so sexy!!!!!!!!!

 
anne on January 18, 2008

you cant have a 4th one without will and elizabeth it wont make any money. Without them u will just have jack adn lets face it he wont be very good by himself. I for one will not even bother to see the movie if will and elizabeth arent in it and i know a whole bunch of other people wont too

 
Anna Sparrow on January 19, 2008

jojo yeah we don´t need Will and Elizabeth
WE HAVE JACK SPARROW THAT´S ALL WE NEED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WELL AT LEAST ME….

Adude4ever on January 22, 2008

Are u people stupid they can’t make a good plot trying to put elisibeth and will back in. jack and barbosa are all u really need. but I would like to see davy jones somehow come back.

 
,,!,,(-.-) on January 26, 2008

ok ok 1st yeh they should make a POTC4 movie with characters will and elizabeth or it wont be the same and 2nd who ever put the comment on under the name of jack sparrow saying “Whats a movie? Is it some kind of rum????????” is a wanker

 
lucas on January 26, 2008

if the roumors are true about them “flying” and stuf dont you think you may have seen something to do with that in the ending “10 years later” scene of dead mans chest and i wonder what elizabeth’s secret is its 10 years later and she only has different clothes she looks exactly the same.

 
Nikolaos on January 26, 2008

I really don’t think making a 4th movie is a good idea!!! Trilogies are good and I think that’s the way they should leave PIRATES, Savvy??

 
Toni on January 30, 2008

I thought Orlando & Keira would b in it as they are like 2 or the main actors

 
Valena on February 13, 2008

They could still have a good movie without Will and Elizabeth BUT Yes I think they should have some kind of romance. I have some ideas if anyone is interested. I know It may be a hard sell though Because we tend to miss “people”. I,m sure that the makers of the Pirates franchise are very capable of giving us new characters to fall in love with if we give them a chance.

 
havan on February 18, 2008

i think that there should be a pirates 4. i thought of some possible ideas for it:calipso rescues davy jones from will turners locker, jack tries to kill will and become imortal, jack gets the chest from elithabeth by threatning to kill her son, jack gets chest but needs to get key from will, davy jones joins will to try to kill will.
this is all i thought of, please make a fourth movie

 
pteri on February 22, 2008

It will be much better without the distractions of Will and Elizabeth. I mean, yeas theyre a good side-story, but its all about captain jack sparrow! the only thing Im left craving after the 3 potc films is More Jack Sparrow, more one-liners, staggering about and drinking of rum. the whole will and elizabeth thing is just… stuff. is not about a love story with added pirates. is a pirate story which featured a couple. and now doesnt and therefore more pirates and more johnny goddamn sexy beast depp and less people distracting sir goddamn sexy from his general piratey wonderment.

 
jack sparrow lover on March 2, 2008 Subscribed to comments via email

i agree that it would be kinda weird to not have will and elizabeth in potc4 but it wouldn’t be so bad i mean when you have johnny depp you know it’s going to be a good movie he is so hott and a good actor and pirates of the caribbean would to make money i mean one of the whole reasons people love the movie so much is because of how johnny depp plays jack sparrow it makes it more interesting to watch
johnny depp is hott!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jack sparrow is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i love jack sparrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 
melanie on March 8, 2008

That is so not cool…. i think that will and elizabeth should be in the POTC4!!!! I will still go and see it because i am a BIG pirates fan but i still think that they should not exclude will and elizabeth after all they just got married!!!!! and they have a son!!!!!!!!!

 
mayte on March 24, 2008

they can’t take them out because p.o.t.c. will not be complete with out will and eizabeth so just think about it…..the fans

 
love jack on March 24, 2008

potc4 WILL be complete without E&W! only JACK is totally ENOUGH to me ! it will be amazing

 
jack is the best. on March 25, 2008

i think that the movie would b fine without will and liz.

infact, the only reason i c it is cos i can laf at jack and barbossa.

and if all of u HAV 2 hav a luv story, y can it b luv 4 jack??
i mean, hes sooo sxc…

anyway, no matter wat the nxt movie is about, i will b going 2 c it jst 2 watch jack…

 
hoho on March 30, 2008

I so agree with pteri!!!!!!!!!

 
Cinderfinrella on March 30, 2008

See now they are not sticking to any of the other movies. They are falling away from the story. They need Elizabeth and Will and all the other characters to make it a POTC. They cant just say “Well even though the movie ended there we are going to start off here and not even mention that” *shakes head* I will go see this movie when it comes out but just to see if it is as good as the others. -.- I dont think it will be… Disney is getting to caught up with Jack and the publicity he is bringing in and not focussing on the story line or anything.
MORE JACK MORE JACK is all they are hearing.

 
desiree on April 3, 2008

omg youve got to put all the originall characters in or else it just wont be the same

 
desiree on April 3, 2008

omg youve got to put all the originall characters in or else it just wont be the same
no 1 else could beat that old handsome johnny depp hahaha dont we all love him and yet keria knightly or you cant forget the cute orlando bloom if you reolaced hem with other people i would not watch it im sorry to the fans…….
:):):):)

 
pirates ruleman!! on April 14, 2008

Pirates 4 would b SOOOOOOOOO COOOOOOOOOOL MAN!! But they need wil & liz 2 make the movie coz they are 2 of the main characters dude! If the movie didn’t have them in it it would be pathetic or at least WORSE THAN THE OTHERS!

 
pirates rule man!! on April 14, 2008

MAN THEY NEED WILL N LIZ! the movie would b nothing without them in it! 2 make money the people ave 2 get them in it! still…….PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN 4 WOULD B SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL MAN! they should do like a star wars thing with a 4,5 n 6, it would make billions. A “buddy” movie sounds rubbish! GET WILL N LIZ IN IT!

 
I on April 24, 2008

Ok so even for all of you that are upset that Will and Elizabeth are leaving, I know that you will go and see it for Jack anyways just to see what it’s like without Will and Elizabeth and that is all they care about…unfortunately. Plus you never know maybe they will produce a love interest that will top Will and Elizabeth and for all you Depp lovers maybe even one involving him!

 
Jessie on April 28, 2008 Subscribed to comments via email

I don’t see why Will/Lizie need to be in it. i was getting bored of them anyway. I think they need to focus more on Jack and most certainly find a love interest for him. This would show how sweet and caring he can be=). They should put new characters in place of Bloom and Knightly and make a new team of main pirates. I don’t know about you guys, but i’m looking forward to what they come up with and who they put in it if Kiera and Orlando truly don’t want to do it.

 
Elizabeth (is my real name) on May 19, 2008 Subscribed to comments via email

Oh man they can’t make a movie with out Will and Elizabeth I mean Bloody Hell what would they do without them. There needs to be a plot where its completely different and yet it closes all questions they left us with at the end of the third one. Thats all I have to say on that. Oh and yea I went to the Permeir in Great Britian (where I live) and I got a pic with the four stars Orlando, Johnny, Keria, and Geffory and it was spectacualr i’ll tell you that mate, i was gobsmacked when they signed my autograph book -SIGH- lol well the only thing i have to say now is MAKE MORE POTC MOVIES!!!

 
Trey WILL turner 21 on May 23, 2008

i think they wont make another because james norrington died and will has to be them captain for the flying dutchman but i hope they make another 1

 
Trey WILL turner 21 on May 23, 2008

Will Turner is My Favorite character whose yours Elizabeth(is my real name)

 
Trey WILL turner 21 on May 23, 2008

I Think That will turner would fight aganist captain jack and captain elizabeth turner would too

 
trey on May 24, 2008 Subscribed to comments via email

um the scott dude is wrong jack went to get the fountain of youth will is doing nothing right now.

 
Jennie on May 31, 2008 Subscribed to comments via email

It would be a kinda good movie, but they really need Bloom and Knightly on there, it just wouldn’t be right if they weren’t on there. They are my favorite characters and they really make the movie a whole lot better. Even though Jack is funny you need the whole crew back on. Jack cuz he is funny, Will for his charm, and elizabeth for the sense of romance. They all make the movie come together and it just wouldn’t be right without all of them.

 
amber on June 26, 2008

i think the movie would be sooo bad if elizabeth and will were not in the movi.e
they had a big part in it the last 2 movies. They made it what it was.
it would be much better if they were in it. Just even a little
