Is Johnny Depp Actually Getting $56 Million For Pirates 4?
It may sound too ridiculous for words, but the Daily Mail says that Johnny Depp will receive almost $56 million (or 32 million pounds) to film a fourth Pirates of the Caribbean movie.

Sadly, Johnny Depp To Play Three More Silly Characters [Casting]
No one's asking Johnny Depp to pursue a boring, traditional Hollywood acting career, but this is just getting ridiculous.

Johnny Depp Will Do Another Pirates Movie
Sources say that Johnny Depp has officially signed to do a 4th Pirates of the Caribbean movie. This news makes me so excited that I almost considered taking a shower today. But nah.
