Johnny Depp and AT WORLD'S END on ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT!

Viewers of ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT were treated to a feature on PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: AT WORLD’S END during the broadcast on Wednesday, April 25th–one month before the official release of the film in North America. Brief interviews with the leading actors, producer Jerry Bruckheimer, and writers Terry Rossio and Ted Elliot were intercut with clips from the movie, including some brilliant new footage. After a shot of Captain Jack Sparrow pronouncing himself “the last pirate,” Johnny Depp assured the interviewer that “Captain Jack Sparrow definitely rises up to the occasion” in AT WORLD’S END. “It’s amazing–unbelievable,” said Johnny. “I’m very excited to see how it’s all going to match up.”

According to ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT, “The stars are back, and judging by these new scenes, uber-producer Jerry Bruckheimer and his writers have really topped themselves.” Keira Knightley confesses, “There is a certain amount of guilt Elizabeth feels about the whole Jack situation,” no doubt referring to her character’s sleight of hand with the handcuffs at the end of DEAD MAN’S CHEST. The look on Captain Jack’s face when Elizabeth asks, “Oh, will you never forgive me?” is alone worth the price of admission. Many thanks to Intodadepps for alerting us to the ET segment and capturing the clip for our Video Clips forum, and to Theresa for video work and Susanne for screencaps of the footage.

Writers Ted Elliot and Terry Rossio promise that “All of the main characters’ stories come to a conclusion” in AT WORLD’S END. Adds Mr. Bruckheimer, “We take you to places you’ve never been before with characters you love.” What better definition of entertainment could there be?–Part-Time Poet
