Pirates 3 Production Details
Saturday, July 15, 2006
Verbinski and Bruckheimer on the next film.
Director Gore Verbinski has only recently completed his work on the first Pirates of the Caribbean sequel, subtitled Dead Man's Chest, in time for the July 7th release. With the forthcoming promotional tour for the domestic and international releases this summer, Verbinski and his Pirates cast and crew won't see much of a break, heading back to finish production on part 3 this August.
"We are actually not going back [to the Bahamas]," says Verbinski. "We have shooting that is going to be off the coast of California. A little bit of water, but a lot of stage work left."
Verbinski says they have "about 70 days" of work left on the film, which was partially completed during work on Dead Man's Chest."
Portions of the third film were completed during production on Dead Man's Chest, particularly the sequences that took advantage of the same sets. The initial plan was to finish both films at once, but production problems have forced the cast and crew to return to finish the film.
Producer Jerry Bruckheimer comments: "Storms, hurricanes, sick actors. Little things that - some mechanical problems that we had stretched it out, so we had to cut our shooting short a little bit, which in a way was good because it gave us more time to prepare and edit the second movie."
IGN FilmForce visited the set of part two last year and also got a sneak peak at the sets of the third film, which we hope to roll out in the not-too-distant future. Stay tuned for all the latest Pirates news as Sparrow and crew's adventures continue.
