Russell Brand
The site reveals that Brand is close to signing a deal to portray Jonathan Sparrow, brother of Johnny Depp's Captain Jack Sparrow. The deal is said to be upwards of 5 million pounds (almost $8 million US).
"There couldn't be a role more perfectly suited," said an unnamed source. "There's a lot of Jack Sparrow in his mannerisms and behaviour. Depp's accent isn't a million miles away from Russell's either."
Brand has recently been embroiled in controversy when he quit his popular BBC Radio show after a prank call where Brand and his co-host, Jonathan Ross, claimed Brand slept with German actor Andrew Sachs' granddaughter.
Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides was released May 20th, 2011 and stars Johnny Depp, Penélope Cruz, Geoffrey Rush, Ian McShane, Kevin McNally, Sam Claflin, Astrid Berges-Frisbey, Stephen Graham. The film is directed by Rob Marshall.

So apparently there is a deal in the works for a 4th film? I wonder the plot, the cast, the runtime, the release date?

memo17, that doesn't even make sense? Do you really think studio executives are sitting around plotting to try and make a film to knock TDK off the charts? You think they're going to cry when It doesn't earn one billion in BO returns?
They don't give a flying f*ck, so long as they pull down a huge profit, they'll all be mega-f*cking rich, regardless of how well the Dark Knight did by comparison.

I think that will be a good. But why keep on going with Pirates 4? In the 3rd movie I was sitting waiting for it to end.

If he's in it, I am so there. I don't even care how much the third one sucked, Russell Brand=Comedy Gold. I'm so pissed his radio programme got cancelled.
He's definitely a Sparrow type. Not quite like Jack, nobody could be but definitely in the same family.
