Pirate of the Caribbean screenplay

Did you know the writer and co-creator Stuart Beattie  wrote the part of Jack Sparrow with Hugh Jackman in mind. The character’s first name was even a nod to the actor’s name. However, Disney did not feel Jackman was a big enough star for the part, so the part was eventually offered to Johnny Depp. This as also considered to be a commercial risk because Depp, although a respected actor, as hardly a bankable star at the time.  Fortunately, the gamble paid off when the movie became the fourth-highest-grossing film of 2003.

“This Is The Day You Will Always Remember As The Day You Almost Caught Captain Jack Sparrow.” – Captain Jack Sparrow
