Terry Rossio, the man behind the first three screenplays, told Moviehole.net that he may be writing a fourth pirate story.
Although Pirates of the Caribbean 3 will open in theatres at the end of May, Rossio is not sure that it will be the last episode. Rossio said, "It’s like the fourth Indiana Jones picture – there are forces in play to make it happen, and forces in play to make it not happen."
He added, "I think we will try to write a screenplay. I can’t say if we’ll be able to solve the challenge of making a good fourth film, or if our screenplay will be enough to get a film made."
