Remember when the third Pirates of the Caribbean film seemed like the end of the line for Jack Sparrow? Well, that's ancient history now because not only is the fourth film in the series, On Stranger Tides, currently in post-production for a 2011 release, but word comes today that Disney is hot for a Pirates 5 and, yes, even a Pirates 6.
HitFix reports that "Disney has begun quietly telling cast and crew to set aside a major block of time in the very near future so they can shoot" the films. As with the second and third sequels, the plan apparently is for these latest installments to be shot back to back.
Of course, you can't make a Pirates movie without Captain Jack Sparrow himself, Johnny Depp. But the actor is committed to shooting Dark Shadows (with Tim Burton) and The Lone Ranger (with original Pirates director Gore Verbinski) in 2011. So when would parts five and six get made? HitFix points out that a shoot like this could take a good chunk of a year.

this series is going to be ruined.
