In a new interview with Hollywood Reporter, Johnny opens up about physical ailments on set, why pirates are more ethical than the government and how he’s involved in the script.
It’s been four years since the third Pirates. What happened?
Had I had a little more control at the wheel early on, I would have spaced them out more. One of the reasons On Stranger Tides took this amount of time was to really focus on what we could do to make it interesting and new and fresh and not just rehash the same old jokes.
Was it right to shoot the previous two back-to-back?
The second and third parts were tacked on, in a way. It wasn’t initially written as a trilogy, so the writers had to find the mathematics to connect all three — and in doing that, there were subplots and sub-subplots, and it got confusing and a bit complicated. I said, “Look, let’s make it very simple and to the point.”
