Variety has confirmed that Johny Depp has agreed to reprise his role as Captain Jack Sparrow in a fourth Pirates of the Caribbean pic and play Tonto in the bigscreen adaptation of The Lone Ranger, both being produced by Jerry Bruckheimer. He will also star as the Mad Hatter in Tim Burton’s version of Alice in Wonderland.
The roles come after Depp helped Disney earn a combined $2.6 billion at the box office with the three pics in the Pirates franchise, also produced by Bruckheimer.
Alice in Wonderland sceduled for 2010, will be shot using 3-D and performance capture technology similar to that used for "Beowulf." check out the full article here.
Lets hope this next Pirates of the Caribbean movie is more of a prequel then true sequel to the franchise. I'm actually more exited to see Tim Burtons take on Alice in Wonderland, "especially" given the source material hes going to be tinkering with.
