The first three films in the franchise were directed by Gore Verbinski, while the fourth film (Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides) was directed by Rob Marshall.
Rønning co-directed the film with Espen Sandberg, and this will be the first time working on a Pirates Of The Caribbean film for both directors.
As a director who describes working on the franchise as “a dream come true,” it’s not at all surprising that he would hope to continue making Pirates films, and we hope that he be able to.
This could even be the final adventure for Jack Sparrow, although it’s difficult to imagine a Pirates film without the reckless captain of the Black Pearl.
