While this fourth "Pirates of the Caribbean" film is not going to be released until May 20, 2011, Walt Disney Pictures has reportedly planned to make two more sequels. According to HitFix, the studio "has begun quietly telling cast and crew to set aside a major block of time in the very near future so they can shoot 'Pirates 5' and 'Pirates 6'."
The site further claims Disney will shoot them back to back as one giant film and release them as two films. However, there is no word on the crew including who will direct and write it, but it is very likely that Johnny Depp will return since his character is the key role in the franchise.
