Here is the info

I thought he was going to for Pirates 2 and backed up at the last minute. Maybe he will go through it now to prove to the public he is not permanently harmed from falling from a tree.

62 and climbing Palm trees? Just for that he needs to be in the 3rd one. Yes I remember hearing he was supposed to be in the 2nd and back out. Old men falling out of Palm trees... my word...

I don't know, maybe he can play the GRANDfather. Have you seen him lately? I just read that the combined ages of the rolling stones is over 260 years.

That is so cool for us "old" Stones fans ! OK , so Im dating myself......Remember when guys with long haired guys were not allowed in Disneyland???? You just gotta love the Jack Sparrow character seen in the park

Has anyone actually seen Kieth Richards act? Or do comedy? Am I the only one who thinks this is a bit...scary???

Scary is a good word. But I'm assuming it will be a cameo with a line or 2 and Keith Richards dressed as a Pirate. He will probably be playing a drunk so you cares. I'm sure he'll actually be drunk. Maybe he's part will require to climb up a coconut tree. Or maybe not.

THAT is why he fell from the tree -- he was audtioning for the part, or just wanting to get into character for his movie debut!

UGH - What a bunch of mean people!

Doesn’t everyone just love Jack Sparrow? Maybe I'm a nutcase, but I think he's a very popular guy????

He's the best at his character, and if Keith Richards wants to play his DAD - OMG - that is so cool - we are very lucky indeed! How fun will this be?

Enough is enough - let's enjoy this -- it's great!!!!!!

Hey, I agree with you

So he's recovered from the coconut to the head? *chuckles*. I am far too young to really know any other Stone other than Jaggar, but from what I've seen, and the little easter egg with Richards on the first DVD of "POTC", it seems that he would make the perfect father of Sparrow. Considering Depp based the character of Jack upon the personality of Richards. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

Hey c'mon, Keith Richards won't have to act, he'll probably throw a glass of water over someone and shout, OK mumble, rock n roll!!! Then fall over!

 

[mermaidlagoon]

Come on you guys....... I guess none of you youngins have ever had the pure utter delight of a truly great Stones concert as seen from almost the front row !!! OMG these guys can rock like no one else on Earth, and these guys arent stupid... Jagger has a degree in Economics !!! Seriously!! Johnny Depp has modeled not only confidence but his entire persona..... any of you ever performed in a great rock band???? and for lets see, for 4 decades???? Gees, I sure as hell cant climb a coconut tree (ok ,I could certainly fall out of one)Next time you come to Hawaii, try to climb one and while you are at it perform in a rock concert!!!!( Personally, I have always thought adult men wearing earrings all just look like little boys dressed up coming to my 2nd graders pirate, b-day party!!! All just wanna be pirates!!!! ) And Keith was probably even the trend setter in that style too! In case you are wondering if I am a "gropie", Im not... but I did ask the doc to deliver my baby on Paul McCartneys B-day!!! I love these discussions!!! Cant wait to see him!!!Any of you see David Crosby in Hook????ARRGGG Iam totally Stoked!
