BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Pirates Of The Caribbean 5 Has Found It's Writer

Some franchises peter out once they’ve stretched to burping up a trilogy. And then there are the powerhouses, the ones that ride the choppy waves of critical reaction and still connect with audiences, earning gazillions along the way. Disney’s Pirates Of The Caribbean series falls squarely into the latter category, and the studio (plus producer Jerry Bruckheimer) has been busy setting up the fifth installment  Catch Me If You Can writer Jeff Nathanson is the man hired to craft the latest script draft.

Pirates veteran Terry Rossio – largely responsible for the first four movies alongside partner Ted Elliott – was hired alone in January 2011 to begin working up the next script, details about which are being kept secret for now.

Then things moved even further ahead when it was reported in July of that year that Johnny Depp, who has always indicated he’d be willing to slap on Captain Jack Sparrow’s mascara for a new outing assuming he liked what was on the page, had entered talks to return once more. Though he’s yet to officially sign on (Disney is likely keeping its bones crossed that whatever Nathanson produces in his re-write will convince him to spill ink on a contract), you can bet all involved want the doubloons to keep pouring into the treasure chests.

Nathanson has experience on big franchise outings, having worked on the Speed sequel Cruise Control (probably best forgotten), Rush Hour 2 (er…) and the story for Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull (let’s move on, shall we?). He’s also busy writing The 39 Clues for DreamWorks.

Naked Gun Reboot On It's Way

If you've seen Naked Gun - or The Naked Gun: From The Files Of Police Squad ! to give its full title - you'll know that it's a comedic masterpiece that springboards off astonishing levels of silliness and random spoofery. Leslie Nielsen's Frank Drebin is a loveable buffoon for the ages, even when he's discussing his dicky prostrate. Do not, however, expect the Ed Helms -starring reboot to adopt exactly the same tack. According to Naked Gun director/co-writer David Zucker, talking up Airplane!'s screening at Nashville's Wild West Comedy Festival, the new version will not attempt to hit the same spoofy sweet spot as the Zuckers and Jim Abrahams' 1988 comedy. "It won’t be like the Naked Gun that I did," Zucker revealed. "It may be good, but it won’t be that kind of movie. They’re going to use the title. They asked me if I wanted to produce. They’re nice people, but they don’t want to do that style of spoof that I do." One departure...
