Johnny Depp enters negotiations for Pirates 5

*Despite previously sounding unsure about making a _Pirates 5_, Johnny
Depp has officially entered talks to play Captain Jack Sparrow for a
fifth time.*

The fourth _Pirates Of The Caribbean_ film, _On Stranger Tides_, just
brought its total worldwide gross to a staggering $1bn. No surprise,
then, that Disney are keen on continuing the profitable franchise.

During press for _Stranger Tides_, Depp had mentioned he’d like
to take a break from Jack for a while for fear of a backlash against
the character.

“It's not something where I would say, 'Let's shoot it next
month to get it out by Christmas 2012,'" he said earlier this year.

“We should hold off for a bit. They should be special, just like
they are special to me."

Disney are obviously applying the pressure, though - they already have
a _Pirates 5_ script being written by series regular Terry Rossio.

Not only that, but back in December we heard that the studio are
considering making _Pirates 5_ and _6_ back-to-back. That's a lot of
rum-swigging.

Let’s just hope that Jack’s further adventures fare better
than _Tides_, which brought new meaning to the term ‘resting on
your laurels’. That despite stellar support from Ian McShane as
Blackbeard.
