Belay all that talk about how Walt Disney Pictures &
Jerry Bruckheimer Productions are allegedly getting ready to start shooting “Pirates 4.”
Why For? Well, though a website which calls itself Disney Casting posted a piece yesterday claiming that preliminary casting had already begun on this
highly anticipated sequel, an unnamed source at the Studio was quick to
dispute this claim. Pointing out the obvious errors that can be found in this bogus
“Pirates 4” casting notice.

“They say that we’re looking to begin production by the late
summer / early fall of this year. Which is wrong. Shooting isn’t officially supposed to
get underway ‘til 2010. They’ve also got Gore Verbinski listed as this
film’s director. Which – given that Gore officially announced to the trades
last week that he’d be taking a pass on ‘Pirates 4’ – is just sloppy. Sorry to
dash anyone’s hopes here. But this is clearly a hoax.”
So you can forget
about heading out to your local multiplex during the Summer of 2010 and then catching
Captain Jack Sparrow as he journeys “ … to a land unknown to mankind” and
discovers “ … a new beginning of hell on earth.” That’s honestly not the real
storyline for “Pirates 4.”
“And what is the real storyline?,” you ask. Sorry. But if I
told you that, the folks at Disney Studios would absolutely kill me. And you
know what they say …
“Dead men tell no tales …”
