The events of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales are set. 22 years after the War Against Piracy in Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End. It's the 17th Century in the Caribbean Sea. Captain Jack Sparrow like the high seas the world over, present a vast playground where adventure and mystery abound. But Jack's life capsizes after his nemesis, the wily Captain Barbossa, steals his ship and later attacks the town of Port Royal.

Pirates of the Caribbean is a series of fantasyswashbuckler films produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and based on Walt Disney's theme park ride of the same name. Directors of the series include Gore Verbinski (1–3), Rob Marshall (4), and Joachim Rønning and Espen Sandberg (5). The series was most notably written by Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio (1-4); other writers include Stuart Beattie (1), Jay Wolpert (1), and Jeff Nathanson (5). The stories followed the adventures of Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp), Hector Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush), Joshamee Gibbs (Kevin McNally), Will Turner (Orlando Bloom), and Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley). The films take place in a fictional historical setting; a world ruled largely by an amalgam of alternative versions of the British Empire and the East India Company, with the pirates representing freedom from the ruling powers.

The film series started with their first release on the big screen in 2003 with Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, which received positive reviews from the critics and grossed US$654 million worldwide.^[1] After the first film's success, Walt Disney Pictures revealed that a trilogy was in the works. The franchise's second film, subtitled Dead Man's Chest, was released three years later in 2006; the sequel proved successful, breaking financial records worldwide the day of its premiere. Dead Man's Chest ended up being the number one film of the year upon earning almost $1.1 billion to-date at the worldwide box office. The third film in the series, subtitled At World's End, followed in 2007, and Disney released a fourth film, subtitled On Stranger Tides, in 2011 in conventional 2D, Digital 3-D and IMAX 3D. On Stranger Tides succeeded in also grossing more than $1 billion,^[1] becoming the second film in the franchise and only the eighth film in history to achieve this.

So far, the film franchise has grossed $3.73 billion worldwide;^[1] it is the tenth highest-grossing film series of all-time and it was the first franchise where more than one film grossed $1 billion worldwide.

A fifth film, subtitled Dead Men Tell No Tales, is currently in early stages of post-production and is set for release on July 7, 2017.^[2]

Films

The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003)

Blacksmith Will Turner teams up with eccentric pirate Captain Jack Sparrow to save Turner's love, Elizabeth Swann, from undead pirates led by Jack's former mutinous first mate, Captain Barbossa. Jack wants revenge against Barbossa, who left him stranded on an island before stealing his ship, the Black Pearl, along with 882 pieces of cursed Aztec Gold.

Dead Man's Chest (2006)

Lord Cutler Beckett of the East India Trading Company arrests Will and Elizabeth for aiding Captain Jack Sparrow in the previous film. Beckett offers clemency if Will agrees to search for Jack's compass in a bid to find the Dead Man's Chest – and inside, the heart of villainous Davy Jones – which would give Beckett control of the seas. However, Jack wants the Chest to escape from an unpaid debt with Jones, who raised the Black Pearl from the seabed (after it was sunk by Beckett) and made Jack captain for 13 years in exchange for 100 years of service aboard Jones' ship.

At World's End (2007)

Lord Beckett gains power over Davy Jones, and with the help of Jones' ship, the Flying Dutchman, he is now executing his plans to extinguish piracy forever. To stand against the East India Trading Co., Will, Elizabeth, Barbossa, and the crew of the Black Pearl set out to rescue Captain Jack Sparrow from Davy Jones' Locker. As one of the Nine Pirate Lords, Jack is needed in order to summon an ancient goddess with the power to defeat Beckett's forces.

On Stranger Tides (2011)

Captain Jack Sparrow is on a quest to find the fabled Fountain of Youth and crosses paths with a former lover, Angelica. She forces Jack aboard the Queen Anne's Revenge, a ship captained by the infamous pirate Blackbeard, Angelica's father. Both are also in search of the Fountain; Angelica to save her father's soul, Blackbeard to escape a prophecy of his demise at the hands of a one-legged man. Joining the hunt is former pirate captain Barbossa, now a privateer in King George II's Navy, who is in a race against the Spanish for the Fountain.

Dead Men Tell No Tales (2017)

'Thrust into an all-new adventure, a down-on-his-luck Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) finds the winds of ill-fortune blowing even more strongly when deadly ghost pirates led by his old nemesis, the terrifying Captain Salazar (Javier Bardem), escape from the Devil's Triangle, determined to kill every pirate at sea, including him. Captain Jack's only hope of survival lies in seeking out the legendary Trident of Poseidon, a powerful artifact that bestows upon its possessor total control over the seas.'^[3]

Short film

Tales of the Code: Wedlocked (2008)

Wenches Scarlett (Lauren Maher) and Giselle (Vanessa Branch) fix each other up for their wedding, in which they would each marry their groom. Upon realizing that both their grooms were the same man – Jack Sparrow – the two wenches find themselves in an auction led by the Auctioneer. The short film serves as a prequel to The Curse of the Black Pearl, explaining just why Jack Sparrow's boat, the Jolly Mon, was seen sinking at the beginning of the whole story, and explaining why wenches Scarlett and Giselle were so upset with him, and it also implies how Cotton lost his tongue. The plot took inspiration from the 'Auction scene' from the original ride.

The short was directed by James Ward Byrkit,^[4] and was only included as a special feature in the US 15 disc 3D Blu-ray/2D Blu-ray/DVD + Digital Copy box set that includes Pirates 1-4; and in the similar UK 5-disc set.

Production

First film

In the early 1990s^[5] screenwriters Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio conceived a supernatural spin on the pirate genre after completing work on Aladdin, but there was no interest from any studio. Undeterred, the writing team refused to give up the dream, waiting for a studio to pick up their take on a pirate tale.^[6] Disney had Jay Wolpert write a script based on the Pirates of the Caribbean, which producer Jerry Bruckheimer rejected, feeling it was 'a straight pirate movie'.^[7] Bruckheimer brought Stuart Beattie in to rewrite the script in March 2002, due to his knowledge of piracy,^[8] and later that month Elliott and Rossio were brought in.^[7] Elliott and Rossio, inspired by the opening narration of the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, decided to give the film a supernatural edge.^[9] As the budget rose, Michael Eisner and Robert Iger threatened to cancel the film, though Bruckheimer changed their minds when he showed them concept art and animatics.^[10]

In June 2002 Gore Verbinski signed on to direct The Curse of the Black Pearl, and Johnny Depp and Geoffrey Rush signed on the following month to star.^[8] Verbinski was attracted to the idea of using modern technology to resurrect a genre, one that had disappeared after the Golden Age of Hollywood, and recalled his childhood memories of the ride, feeling the film was an opportunity to pay tribute to the 'scary and funny' tone of it. Depp was attracted to the story as he found it quirky: rather than trying to find treasure, the crew of the Black Pearl were trying to return it in order to lift their curse; also, the traditional mutiny had already taken place. Verbinski approached Rush for the role of Barbossa, as he knew he would not play it with attempts at complexity, but with a simple villainy that would suit the story's tone.^[11]Orlando Bloom read the script after Rush, with whom he was working on Ned Kelly, suggested it to him.^[12]Keira Knightley came as a surprise to Verbinski: he had not seen her performance in Bend It Like Beckham and was impressed by her audition.^[11]Tom Wilkinson was negotiated with to play Governor Swann,^[8] but the role went to Jonathan Pryce, whom Depp idolized.^[11]

Shooting for The Curse of the Black Pearl began on October 9, 2002 and wrapped by March 7, 2003.^[8] Before its release, many executives and journalists had expected the film to flop, as the pirate genre had not been successful for years, the film was based on a theme-park ride, and Depp rarely made a big film.^[13] However, The Curse of the Black Pearl became both a critical and commercial success.

Second and third films

After seeing how well the first film was made, the cast and crew signed for two sequels to be shot back-to-back,^[14] a practical decision on Disney's part to allow more time with the same cast and crew.^[15] Writers Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio knew that with an ensemble cast, they weren't free to invent totally different situations and characters, as with the Indiana Jones and James Bond series, and so had to retroactively turn The Curse of the Black Pearl into the first of a trilogy.^[16] They wanted to explore the reality of what would happen after Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann's embrace at the end of the first film, and initially considered the Fountain of Youth as the plot device.^[17] They settled on introducing Davy Jones, the Flying Dutchman and the Kraken, a mythology mentioned twice in the first film. They introduced the historical East India Trading Company (also mentioned in the first film), which for them represented a counterpoint to the themes of personal freedom represented by pirates.^[18]

Filming for the sequels began on February 28, 2005,^[19] with Dead Man's Chest finishing on March 1, 2006,^[20] and At World's End on January 10, 2007.^[21] The second film was also the first Disney theatrical feature film with the current computer-generated Walt Disney Pictures logo.^[22]

Pirates Of The Caribbean 6

Fourth film

Rossio and Elliot discovered the novel On Stranger Tides during production of Dead Man's Chest and At World's End and decided to use it as the basis for a fourth film. As Gore Verbinski was unavailable, Bruckheimer invited Rob Marshall to direct the film.^[23] Elliott and Rossio decided to do a stand-alone film,^[24] with a story that would support new characters,^[25] and incorporate elements from the novel, such as Blackbeard, the Fountain of Youth and mermaids—the latter two having been already alluded to in the previous films.^[26] Depp, Rush, Greg Ellis and Kevin McNally returned to their roles,^[27] and the cast saw the additions of Ian McShane as Blackbeard and Penélope Cruz as Angelica, Blackbeard's daughter and Jack Sparrow's love interest.^[28] A further addition was Richard Griffiths as King George II of Great Britain. After the costly production of two simultaneous films, Disney tried to scale down the fourth installment, giving a lower budget,^[29] which led to cheaper locations and fewer scenes with special effects.^[30] It was also filmed in 3D, with cameras similar to the ones used in Avatar.^[23]

Filming for On Stranger Tides began June 14, 2010 and ended on November 19, 2010.^[30][31] It was released in the United States on May 20, 2011.^[32] With a budget of $378.5 million, On Stranger Tides holds the record for most expensive film ever made.

Fifth film

On January 14, 2011, it was confirmed that Terry Rossio would write the screenplay for the fifth installment, without his co-writer Ted Elliott.^[33] On January 11, 2013, Jeff Nathanson signed on to write the script for the film. On May 29, 2013, it was announced that Norwegian directors Joachim Rønning and Espen Sandberg were selected to direct.^[34] On August 22, 2013, the two revealed that the title of the fifth film would be Dead Men Tell No Tales, alluding to the line well-known from the Pirates of the Caribbean theme park attractions.^[35][36][37] They also confirmed that they were working on the film, speaking highly of Jeff Nathanson's 'funny and touching' script and that they are inspired by the first film, The Curse of the Black Pearl.^[38][39] On September 10, 2013, Disney pushed back the film's initial 2015 release,^[40] with sources indicating that a Summer 2016 release is likely.^[41] Producer Jerry Bruckheimer revealed that script issues were behind the delay, and that Jeff Nathanson was at work on a second attempt based on a well-received outline.^[42] In July 2014, Disney announced that Dead Men Tell No Tales would be released on July 7, 2017.^[43]

A spokesman for the Australian Arts Minister confirmed that the fifth installment was set to shoot in Australia after the government agreed to repurpose $20 million of tax incentives originally intended for the remake of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.^[44] According to Australian film industry sources, pre-production started in late September 2014 with filming expected to commence in February 2015.^[45] This was officially confirmed by Disney and Ian Walker the Queensland Arts Minister on October 2, 2014, stating that filming will take place exclusively in Australia, being the largest production to ever shoot in the country. Village Roadshow Studios and Port Douglas were officially confirmed as filming locations.^[46] Production began in Australia on February 17, 2015.^[47]

Reception

Box office performance

The Pirates of the Caribbean film series was successful at the box office, with each film grossing over $600 million, and all at some point ranking among the fifty highest-grossing films of all time. It became the first ever series to own two billion-dollar films, these being Dead Man's Chest and On Stranger Tides,^[50] but other series have followed (the Batman series, the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Transformers).

The Curse of the Black Pearl was the third highest-grossing 2003 film in North America (behind The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King and Finding Nemo) and fourth worldwide (behind The Return of the King, Finding Nemo and The Matrix Reloaded).^[51]Dead Man's Chest was the most successful film of 2006 worldwide,^[52] and At World's End led the worldwide grosses in 2007, though being only fourth in North America (behind Spider-Man 3, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and Shrek the Third).^[53]On Stranger Tides was the third highest-grossing film of 2011 worldwide (behind Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 and Transformers: Dark of the Moon) and the fifth in North America.^[54] All of the sequels broke box office records upon release, of which the most notable are the opening-weekend record in North America (Dead Man's Chest),^[55] the Memorial-Day weekend record in North America (At World's End)^[56] and the opening-weekend record outside North America (On Stranger Tides).^[57]

Critical and public response

The series is noted for its high quality of acting talent, and is one of the aspects of the films that is always praised.^{[73][74][75][76][77][78]} The visual and practical effects are considered some of the best ever done on film,^{[77][78][79][80]} so much so that audiences believed certain CGI elements of the films were real and done practically.^{[81][82][83][84][85]} The plot and story to the first three sequels received mixed reviews, with the general consensus that they were too bloated and convoluted to follow.^{[86][87][88][89][90]}Pirates of the Caribbean is noted for reinvigorating the pirates genre of film after decades of either no pirate films, or failed films.^[91] The success of the series saw Disney try to replicate Pirates' success by launching films such as Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time and The Lone Ranger.

Will there be a sixth Pirates of the Caribbean movie, and if so, when will Pirates 6 come out?

The fifth Pirates movie, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, was released in May of 2017. While the film introduced the next generation of characters, it could have also ended the series there and would feel complete. However, a post-credits scene at the end of Pirates 5 seemed to indicate that this is just the beginning of a new adventure as Davy Jones seems to be returning to exact his revenge.

But will there actually be a Pirates 6, or is it just wishful thinking on the part of series fans?

Looking at the numbers…

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales was not as big of a hit in the United States as previous installments. In fact, it only made $172 million domestic.

However, the film was absolutely huge in international markets like China, and its global take was close to $800 million.

Franchises like Pirates of the Caribbean show just how important the global box office is for movie studios in this day and age, and why so many tentpole films open overseas before they do in the United States.

Jerry Bruckheimer has stated that a sixth movie may very well depend on home video sales of Pirates 5.

Looking solely at financials, I think a sixth Pirates movie has a 50/50 chance. even if the fifth movie was a bit of a disappointment for Disney. But when will it happen?

There’s been no official announcement of ‘Pirates of the Caribbean 6’.

Since there’s been no announcement of a sixth Pirates movie, we simply have to piece together whatever scraps of information come our way on the internet.

Originally, the fifth and sixth Pirates of the Caribbean movies were supposed to shoot back to back, but that plan was scrapped early on. However, there have been some signs of life in recent months.

Joachim Rønning, the director of Dead Mean Tell No Tales, has reportedly been eyed to direct a sequel.

Kaya Scodelario, who plays Carina Smyth in Dead Men Tell No Tales, has said that she’s been given an option to reprise her role in a potential sixth Pirates film. So that seems to bode well for the franchise.

However, it should be noted that even Scodelario is unsure of the series’ future.

According to an interview with ScreenRant…

“I think it would be a lot of fun to go back. It was an amazing experience to shoot […] so many people all watch it and find joy in it – it crosses generations. People enjoy these movies and […] people still want to see them. I think it’s important that we make sure it’s good and if people want it and we can find the right script, I’d love to be a part of it. But as of now, I haven’t heard anything.”

Of course, a sixth Pirates of the Caribbean film would completely depend on whether or not Captain Jack himself, Johnny Depp, would even be on board. He’s said before that the fifth film felt like a coda for the character, and Dead Men Tell No Taleshas been marketed as “The Final Adventure.”

If Pirates 6 should get the greenlight, it still could be a long wait. Given the lengthy gap between Pirates 4 and 5, it’s likely that we wouldn’t see a sixth Pirates movie until 2020 or 2021 at the earliest.

In the meantime, there’s more for Pirates fans…

While the future of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies may be up in the air for now, the franchise chugs along in other media.

The Pirates of the Caribbean: Tides of War online game just got a massive update this month, and the attraction that started it all is getting a major overhaul in Disney Parks next year.

Clearly, there’s more in store for the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise.
