Moviefone: Behind the Scenes AT WORLD'S END --including video clips < <
Moviefone's Liane Bonin visited the set of PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: AT WORLD'S END last fall and spoke with production designer Rick Heinrichs about the exotic sets. "Don't assume everything you see is computer generated," warns Bonin, who saw the elaborate Singapore set. "There's going to be quite a bit of visual effects, but Gore [Verbinski] wanted to rely on real stuff whenever possible, then expand upon that with special effects," says Heinrichs. Moviefone is currently showing a 13-panel behind-the-scenes slide show with descriptions of their on-set tour, as well as four new high-definition video clips, but beware of major spoilers in the videos. You can view the video clips here http://tinyurl.com/2d78hd and the behind-the-scenes slide show here http://tinyurl.com/yuf824 Thanks to emma for the behind-the-scenes story and Theresa for the video clips. --Part-Time Poet
Back from the dead, Barbossa enjoys his return--an interview with Geoffrey Rush < <
Oscar-winner Geoffrey Rush has spent some time in Internet chat rooms, trying to learn if any savvy poster has uncovered the secret of Captain Barbossa's return from the dead. "I get very intrigued dropping into the chat rooms to see how much they pick up on," Rush told James Wigney of the Sunday Herald Sun. "It's like film analysis school--they will pick up random little throwaway shots that are deliberate red herrings and ask, 'Did anyone see that there?' In the second film, they were asking, 'Did anyone see Barbossa's boots lying in the background?' And they go back over it.'' However, Rush reports, "The great thing is that none of them have really picked what happens in No.3."
Geoffrey Rush hasn't yet seen the finished version of PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: AT WORLD'S END, due to premiere at Disneyland on Saturday evening: "There are hundreds and hundreds of effects shots that take a lot of time to perfect," he explains. "So I think when it opens in Anaheim it will be racing in an ambulance from the lab."
Rush, who won a Best Actor Oscar for SHINE a decade ago, thinks his co-star Johnny Depp deserves "the little golden man" for his creation of Jack Sparrow, "especially as such awards are rarely given to comic roles or blockbusters." Says Rush, "[The Oscar nomination] was a great feather in his cap, because there is no tradition of that. And to be honest, I think he has created one of the most memorable characters in Hollywood history.''
You can read the full Sunday Herald Sun article on the Zone's Porch; a transcript of Geoffrey Rush's May 10th appearance on GOOD MORNING AMERICA is also on that forum. Many thanks to emma for both Rush interviews. --Part-Time Poet

"A reminder of how lucky we are"--a contented Johnny Depp talks about his daughter's recovery and singing in SWEENEY TODD < <
In a wide-ranging and relaxed interview with Ruben V. Nepales, Johnny Depp spoke briefly about his seven-year-old daughter Lily-Rose's recovery from a serious illness in March. "[T]here was a bumpy patch in terms of my daughter's illness which, to let you know, she got through beautifully, unscathed. She's healthy now," Johnny said. "She's wonderful. It gave us a great scare--a perspective, a reminder of how lucky we are to be able to breathe, live, walk, talk, think and surround ourselves with people we love." And what gave him strength during this crisis? "What got us through our trying times was not my strength or Vanessa's," Johnny responded. "It was more the strength of our daughter, her incredible ability to make us feel okay even though she was in a difficult place. She was very unwell but she was so strong and amazing."
Johnny also spoke about undertaking the leading role in a musical--Tim Burton's SWEENEY TODD--and singing the Stephen Sondheim score onscreen. "An actor going into a recording studio and singing for the first time in his life at age 4--that's very strange," a laughing Johnny told Nepales. "I wouldn't recommend it. I feel okay about what I have been able to do but it's a very strange process. When Tim asked if I wanted to play the role, I said, 'Sure.' He said, 'Can you sing?' I said, 'I don't know--I'll get back to you [. . .]. I ended up going into a recording studio with a friend of mine and I just sang to the tracks to find out if I could do it at all. It's not unlike the mating call of a rutting stag," said Johnny. "It's a very strange sound but so far, I have not been fired, which is good. We'll see. I hope you like it."

Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow on the cover of ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY! < <
The May 18, 2007 issue of ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY features a spectacular cover of Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow and a seven-page feature on PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: AT WORLD'S END. The lavishly illustrated behind-the-scenes article, called "Days of Plunder," was written by Josh Rottenberg and includes a full-page Q&A interview with Johnny Depp called "The Captain At Ease." You can read the interview in its entirety on the Zone's News & Views forum; many thanks to emma for posting it, and to sleepy for breaking the EW story. You can find a much larger scan of the EW cover on sleepy's thread on News & Views.
What did the POTC pirates have to say about their work? Director Gore Verbinski drew his metaphor from another genre entirely: "It's really a Western. It's like The Wild Bunch or something." And he speaks up for the virtues of the POTC films' complex plots: "I don't mind if people find it confusing. I don't want to dumb it down to where it's just processed cheese and you're not thinking about it afterwards." Writer Terry Rossio adds that the films are "designed for multiple viewings." Bill Nighy, who plays Davy Jones, sees no reason to fret: "When you pass the $1.1 billion mark, you start to suspect that you must be doing something right." And how did Captain Jack Sparrow feel about DEAD MAN'S CHEST's astonishing worldwide popularity? "These numbers kept coming in, and none of them made sense to me," Johnny tells Rottenberg. "The only thing I did notice was that they kept getting larger."
The article concludes with the inevitable speculation that AT WORLD'S END might not, in fact, be the end of the PIRATES franchise. Might there be a POTC 4? The ever-cagey Jerry Bruckheimer, master of tantalizing the audience, suggests that moviegoers might want to stay clear to the end of the credits of AT WORLD'S END, for a hint of what the future might hold. "There's something we show you as they drift away,what the next adventure could be," promises Jerry B. --Part-Time Poet

"Playing this character will always bring a smile to my face"--Johnny Depp interview on AT WORLD'S END in July 2007 TOTAL FILM < <
The July 2007 issue of TOTAL FILM features a cover of Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow and, inside, a cornucopia of delightful interviews with the PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: AT WORLD'S END cast and crew. Reporter Aubrey Day conducts a joint interview with Johnny and POTC scriptwriter Terry Rossio, and finds Johnny heaping praise on (as usual) everybody but himself. Here's what Johnny has to say about his producer, Jerry Bruckheimer, and his director, Gore Verbinkski:
JD: Jerry Bruckheimer [. . . ] he's the great protector. He stands there and wards off any and all sorts of evil spirits, or just concerned parties, to stop them from getting to the work, touching any of that, getting to [director] Gore Verbinski. And if there are any real heroes within this little community, man, Gore is the King Hero. And the immediate crew: those guys who are there in the trenches, the grips, the electricians, craft services. I honestly don't know how Gore is able to be upright after all he's done. And also everything he retains in his brain. It's weird. As an actor you could almost not read the script at all, and just rely on Gore. I think he has a photographic memory or something. He's just a wizard.
And will there be further PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN adventures?
TERRY ROSSIO: I'll tell you one thing: Johnny will not make the same film twice. If there is to be another Captain Jack adventure, it won't be like any of the three films that came before.
JD: Playing this character will always, always bring a smile to my face . . . .
The TOTAL FILM article also includes interviews with Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley. Many thanks to Gilbert's Girl for bringing us the news, and In-too-Depp for sharing her scans of the article. --Part-Time Poet

"He's so irreverent and so irresponsible--he's a lot of fun:" Johnny Depp talks about Captain Jack Sparrow < <
In an interview with Reuters Television in London, Johnny Depp promised audiences that they would see "the same old Captain Jack" they fell in love with in PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: THE CURSE OF THE BLACK PEARL. "I think he is a character that can always be fresh in a weird way because he is so irreverent and so irresponsible, you know, he is a lot of fun," Johnny told Reuters. But don't look for earth-shaking changes in the Captain's character in AT WORLD'S END. "[Y]ou'll see certain new sides to the character, but I don't think he is a character that can evolve per se or suddenly have this great revelation about himself," Johnny explained. "I think he just sort of is what he is."
Johnny knows the Captain Jack character has taken root in the public imagination; everyone knows Captain Jack Sparrow. "When you meet people in the street, even just these little kids who could be as young as four and five years old and they've had some connection to the character and it's a connection they'll carry with them, you know, probably, maybe for the rest of their lives and that's a very profound experience," he said. Even after four years atop the Hollywood A-list, Johnny sounds humbled and astonished by the character's popularity. "All of it took me by surprise," he told Reuters. "I mean, I'm the guy that for twenty years was used to having people not see any of his films," Johnny said. "Nobody saw my movies--a couple here and there, but in terms of a mass audience, that never happened for me."
Asked about the possibility of a fourth film adventure for Captain Jack Sparrow, Johnny gave a noncomittal reply: "I don't know, you know. I reckon anything is possible."

"Comedy is so much nicer"--Johnny Depp is interviewed on GOOD MORNING AMERICA < <
The photo shows Johnny Depp during his interview on GOOD MORNING AMERICA this morning, Tuesday, May 8th. The five-minute feature, called "A Pirate's Life for Me: Johnny Depp Up Close," combined an autobiographical recap with promotion for the upcoming release of PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: AT WORLD'S END. GMA's weekend anchor Bill Weir did sandwich in some fresh questions, however, as he asked Johnny about comic vs. "dark" roles, and about the health of his daughter Lily-Rose. Here is a bit of their conversation:
GMA: How does comedy satisfy you differently than drama, or something tense and psychological?
JD: Oh, boy. It's so much nicer. So much better than having to travel to . . . dark places. It's fun to sort of release the trap door and see what everyone's reaction is.
GMA [narrator]: But he is still drawn to the morbid.
JD: (nodding) Dark.
GMA: You keep going back to the dark, man!
JD: Yeah. I don't know. There are certain things that arrive in front of you--things like THE LIBERTINE or SWEENEY TODD, with Tim Burton--that you just know that there's no way around it. You must do it.
GMA: But do you find therapy in your work?
JD: You definitely do. But you know, you find therapy in life--in anything. In family. In your kids.
Regarding the recent serious illness of his daughter Lily-Rose, Johnny offered this update: "As any parent would feel, it was extremely frightening. She's doing really well. She's pulled through beautifully--and perfectly, thank God. So everything's good." Wonderful news!

TV ALERT--Johnny Depp interview on E! News on Wednesday < <
There's not a lot of information on this one, but jeral20 reports that tonight's E! News (Tuesday May 8) included promotion for an interview with Johnny Depp to be shown on tomorrow's broadcast, Wednesday May 9th. Apparently E! News also sent a reporter to London for the rescheduled press day last Monday. Thanks to jeral20 for the news.
EXTRA! also showed a brief clip from AWE on their broadcast Tuesday, May 8th, and a very quick interview with Johnny. Their segment focused on AWE's verbal banter and humor. Johnny was also asked about Keith Richards' cameo, and he described how the population on the set practically doubled when Keith showed up to film his scenes, because everyone wanted to see him. --Part-Time Poet
