Captain Jack will be back for fourth ‘Pirates’

It’s been quite a day for Disney. Besides announcing that “Cars 2” will hit theaters in 2011 and Johnny Depp will play the Mad Hatter in Tim Burton’s “Alice in Wonderland,” the studio also revealed new information about several other upcoming films.

As Variety reports, Depp has also agreed to reprise his role as Captain Jack Sparrow for a fourth “Pirates of the Caribbean” flick. That’s all the information we have about that project at this stage.

Additionally, Depp will play Tonto in the adaptation of “The Lone Ranger.” Wow, looks like he's going to be really busy working on this close relationship with Disney.

Unfortunately, Jerry Bruckheimer and Nicholas Cage also announced a third “National Treasure” flick. I really don’t think making a fourth “Pirates” is a good idea, but another “Treasure”? Why doesn’t anyone come up with something new and original anymore?

Despite the sequel mania at today’s presentation, the fact that Depp boarded “Alice in Wonderland” is good news indeed. What do you guys think about all these announcements? Are you loving it? Or are you sick of Disney?
