| preceded_by = Dead Man's Chest | imdb_id = 0449088 | }} Pirates of the Caribbean 3 is the third part of the trilogy begun by the 2003 film The Curse of the Black Pearl, following the 2006 film Dead Man's Chest. It is directed by Gore Verbinski, and stars Johnny Depp, Keira Knightley, Orlando Bloom, Mackenzie Crook and several other actors from the first two films. Disney has announced a released date of May 25, 2007.
There are several rumors as to what the full title of the movie will be. The Internet Movie Database has variously listed it as Pirates of the Caribbean: World's End, Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, and Pirates of the Caribbean: Uncharted Waters. Media sources *. The July 10, 2006, edition of Cynopsis, a TV and movie industry e-mail newsletter, reported that the title is Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End and that Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards will have a cameo appearance as Captain Jack Sparrow's father. The title was also referenced in USA Today. Neither reference to the title named a source. The full name of the movie has not yet been announced by Walt Disney Pictures, and an IGN article reports via an anonymous Disney representative that At World's End is not the title for the third film and that the true title will be revealed in the coming months.
Plot
It is expected that the next film will involve Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann joining forces with their old enemy, Barbossa, to rescue Captain Jack Sparrow and Bootstrap Bill Turner and defeat the alliance between Davy Jones, Cutler Beckett, and new villain Sao Feng. The first 56 pages of an early draft of the script have leaked online. Co-writer Ted Elliot confirmed on the website KeepToTheCode.com that this is a portion of an extremely early "budget draft" of the script, and while some of the broad strokes of the story are consistent with the final version, specific events and dialogue are very rough when compared with the final film, and these pages do not reflect the final film's writing or quality. This early, rough version of the script shows Will Turner, Elizabeth Swann and Barbossa traveling to the Orient and confronting Captain Sao Feng in search of charts that lead to "World's End". Feng is captain of the red-sailed pirate ship Empress, and hosts a mysterious "dragon lady" onboard his ship. Another element of the ride is represented in this version of the script, when Will, Barbossa and their crew sails their ship; an oriental junk named Hai Peng; off the "end of the world" a huge, straight drop in the middle of the ocean, mimicking the large drops found on the Pirates of the Caribbean theme park attraction. Jack Sparrow and the Black Pearl are found in Davy Jones' Locker, a kind of purgatory made up of nothing but sand and strange crabs. Will is intent on retrieving the Black Pearl as it is the only ship with the speed necessary to overtake the Flying Dutchman and therefore rescue his father Bootstrap Bill Turner. This version of the script shows that Admiral James Norrington has Davy Jones and his crew at his command, having captured his heart in the second film.
A recent article in Empire magazine revealed a visit to the Singapore set which features in part of the movie. According to another article in Entertainment Weekly, director Gore Verbiniski, revealed a basic plot: "Piracy itself is at stake. It's like the railroad coming to the West". Verbiniski continues on to state that within the film there will be: "a conference of the world's pirate leaders and a treacherous journey to the literal ends of the earth".A Peek At 'Pirates III', Entertainment Weekly, July 14, 2006
