Man Overboard?

The Friday exit of Disney suit Richard Cook puts a small question mark as to Johnny Depp's involvement in Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides...



Speaking to the LA Times Depp says of Cook, “He's instantly trustworthy. And you generally don't meet people at the studios you trust.”

Depp is already "signed" to star in a fourth Pirates movie but he says

“There's a fissure, a crack in my enthusiasm at the moment.”

It sounds as though Depp needs to feel “enthusiastic” about the script in order to be reeled in for sure... In the end I would be shocked if Depp didn't end up returning as Captain Jack just the same...
