Not much to say about this one. The other day Jerry Bruckheimer, Pirates of the Caribbean's producer, posted the below picture of Jack Sparrow on Twitter.
This isn't much, but it's good to get our first look at the new pirate flick. In this image Sparrow is being tied up by two pirates of unknown origin or intent. Are they some of Salazar's ghost pirates? I doubt it. It has been hinted at that those characters might be CGI; and even if they aren't, I'd hope that their design would be more menacing than this. These Buccaneers look more like a neutral party.
Also; notice the black sails and dark floorboards. This appears to be taking place on The Black Pearl herself! Has Jack run afowl of his own crew? Or maybe this is an invading party? It's possible that a third party has taken control of the Pearl.
And is it me or is that rope coming from some odd place off screen? Could it be that this is the doing of Barbossa and the magical sword he stole from Blackbeard?
Rampant Speculation aside; I really love how this picture looks. Those aforementioned buccaneers look like they came right out of the original Disneyland attraction, which is nothing but a good thing in my book. Occasionally the POTC movies suffer a bit from not being quite pirate-y enough, but from the looks of things that won't be a problem in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales!
