"Trying to . . . make the actors as great as they can be"–Director Rob Marshall on PIRATES 4

MTV’s movie reporter Josh Horowitz spoke to Rob Marshall on the red carpet at the Golden Globes (where Marshall’s Nine was nominated) and asked the director for an update on his next project, Pirates of the Caribbean 4: On Stranger Tides. “We’ve now started, officially,” Marshall replied; Pirates 4 is scheduled to film this summer. “I’m talking to Johnny and it’s been great. I’ve been working already. I’m spending a lot of time with [producer] Jerry Bruckheimer, learning this whole adventure of this . . . different genre for me, which I feel so at home [with] already.”

Asked how he will make On Stranger Tides “his own,” Marshall replied, “I never quite think of myself in terms of putting a stamp on anything. I think we’re just trying to bring what’s on the page to life, to make the actors as great as they can be, serve them, serve the material.”
