Johnny Depp's Pirates Of The Caribbean character Jack Sparrow will feature in a new television series.

Disney is reportedly planning to make a TV spin-off of the swashbuckling franchise with Sparrow as its main character.

A source tells newspaper The Daily Star, "The idea is that we focus on a much younger Jack Sparrow and show fans how he became a famous pirate.

"The film has been such a success with spin-offs such as toys and video games and books, it only seems right to do a TV series."

It is hoped a host of high profile celebrities will provide the voiceover for the series. The source adds, "Since the film attracted guests like of Keith Richards, you can imagine the stars who will want to pop up in the television show."

I assume they are planning a cartoon the way they are talking about voiceovers.

I'm sure I'd give it a watch but it does seem to be a matter of grabbing some more cash out of a successful product.

I'm sure I would give it a watch to see what it was like. Does sound as though they are trying to extract as much cash out of already lucrative thing.

And why not? They are a business.

I think a lot of little boys would enjoy this, but maybe not the older female Johnny Depp fans.
