In the article featured at the USA Today site, Johnny Depp says of Captain Jack Sparrow, "Captain Jack is about as fully realized a human as he can be. He's there. He's going to stay there. Which is fine."

Unlike the previous films in the series, much of the focus in Pirates 4 is on Jack rather than additional characters, which serves to "streamline" the story. "What's most interesting about Pirates 4 is you don't have to connect the dots for these subplots and sub-characters," Depp says. "It felt like a fresh, clean slate."

Adds USA Today, "Reckless complication will come in matters of the heart with Cruz's Angelica, who has a history with Sparrow. 'We have our bouts in the film, but there's also this residue of what might have been. It's a kind of love-hate thing,' Depp says. 'There's a little flavor of both.'"

In April, Johnny Depp and Tim Burton begin filming the big screen version of Dark Shadows, in which Depp plays vampire Barnabas Collins. For much more on Dark Shadows - past, present and future - check out the Blog of Dark Shadows site. Just click on the image below.

I was increasingly disappointed with Pirates 2 and 3, but I'm actually very excited about this fresh start for the series.

And I agree, AlexDeLarge666, I hope Burton doesn't go campy with Dark Shadows. People refer to the original series as campy, but the truth is that everyting on the show was treated seriousy, it's just that the production values were somewhat questionable and the speed of shooting (coupld with the cost of editing video at the time) resulted in many flubs being left in the show. But the movie needs to be treated seriously.

Dark Shadows should be a refreshing take on vampires. I wonder how the Twilight and Vampire Diaries people will handle it. They probably won't be able to relate.

Ed, definitely a good point and I agree that they should definitely take this new Dark Shadows flic very seriously.

I like the Pirates movies, I even enjoyed the convoluted nature of 3. Good fun entertainment.

TheMyth, the one thing that I think Depp can really bring to light is Barnabas Collins' vampire out of time element. The previous versions adjusted to life outside of the coffin so quickly, and I could easily see him perplexed by such simple things as electricity. That is, of course, assuming they go with the notion of Barnabas being freed from his chained coffin.

Btw awesome find, this should be up there with PIRATES 1, coz 2 & 3 were kinda crapola.

i too am truly looking forward to this fresh start. the 3rd one was such a mess that getting rid of all the extra characters was a must.
