*Updated with Logo and Possible Plot Details: ‘Pirates of the Caribbean 4’ Sets Sail in 2011
This just in from Disney’s Twitter post.
The Pirates of the Caribbean 4 coming summer 2011. Captain Jack Sparrow is here and the crowd goes wild!
And they also posted this picture of Johnny Depp. Latino Review tweeted that “Pirates of the Carribean 4: On Stranger Tides is the official title.
UPDATE*
In addition to the new announcement of ‘Pirates of the Caribbean 4’s title and release date, we also have this snazzy new logo courtesy of Coming Soon.
Also, our buddy Erik Davis from Cinematical directed our attention to a 1987 book entitled “On Stranger Tides.”
Here is the book’s synopsis:
Puppeteer John Chandagnac, bound for Jamaica to recover stolen money from his uncle, becomes Jack Shandy after pirates attack his ship and force him to join their crew. Shandy’s struggle to accept his new life grounds the story for readers, even as Blackbeard and vodun magicians whisk everyone away to dreamlike lands where the Fountain of Youth itself awaits. The chaotic sea battles sing, though at times key events happen so quickly that they get lost in the shuffle as Jack tries to comprehend where he’s going and what’s at stake. This dark fantasy tale will appeal not just to pirate fans but also to anyone who appreciates Powers’s talent for blending the most unlikely elements into a brilliantly cohesive whole.
Curious. Could Disney have bought up the rights, and could ‘Pirates 4’ be centered around the search for the Fountain of Youth? We’ll keep you updated.
