Captain Jack Sparrow first appears inThe Curse of the Black Pearl, when he arrives inPort

Royallooking to commandeer a ship. Despite rescuingElizabeth Swann(Keira Knightley), the daughter

ofGovernor Weatherby Swann(Jonathan Pryce) from drowning, he is jailed for piracy. That night, acursed ship called theBlack Pearlattacks Port Royal, capturing Elizabeth in the process. Its

captain,Hector Barbossa(Geoffrey Rush), is trying desperately to break an ancient Aztec curse that he

and the crew are under.Will Turner(Orlando Bloom), ablacksmithwho loves Elizabeth, frees Sparrow

so that he can aid him in rescuing her. They steal the HMS Interceptorand acquire a crew

inTortugabefore heading toIsla de Muerta, where Elizabeth is being held captive. Along the way, Will

learns that Sparrow was originally captain of the Black Pearl, but Barbossa posed as his first mate in

order to steal the ship from him eventually leaving him marooned on a desert island ten years ago.

Unfortunately, the rescue attempt goes awry and Jack soon finds himself marooned again along with

Elizabeth. The pair are rescued by the BritishRoyal Navy, after Elizabeth uses some rum found on the

island to send off a smoke bomb signal. In order to escape hanging, Sparrow cuts a deal to deliver them

the Pearl. However, Commodor James Norrington insists rescuing Turner will be a dangerous and

fruitless trip. Elizabeth, desperate, leaps forward and offers to the Commodor's marriage proposal.

Norrington agrees and sends Jack down to the bottom of the boat, telling him to consider all meanings as

to "silent as the grave". During the film's final battle at Isla de Muerta, Sparrow steals a cursed coin,

making himself immortal so he can duel Barbossa on equal footing. He shoots his rival with the same

pistol he had carried for ten years just as Will breaks the curse, killing Barbossa. Despite his assistance

to the Navy, Sparrow is re-arrested and sentenced to death.

At his scheduled execution in Port Royal, Will comes to his rescue, but they are quickly caught. Right at

that moment, Elizabeth shows her love for Will, and he is pardoned, while Sparrow escapes by falling off

the sea wall. He is rescued by the Black Pearl's new crew, and made captain once more. Apparently

impressed by the clever pirate, CommodoreJames Norrington(Jack Davenport) allows him one day's

head start before giving chase.[3]

Dutchman, or be taken by theKrakentoDavy Jones's Locker. The Kraken is a legendary sea monster

apparently under the control of Davy Jones, the squidman.

The Dead Man's Chest contains Jones's heart, which Sparrow can use as leverage against Jones and

end his debt. Adding to Sparrow's woes,Lord Cutler Beckett(Tom Hollander) of theEast India Trading

Companywants to settle his own debt with Sparrow and forces Will Turner to search for him. Will finds

Sparrow and his crew hiding from the Kraken onPelegosto, where they have been captured by cannibals.

They escape, but Davy Jones captures them and demands that Jack pay his debt. Jack argues that he

was captain for only two years before he was mutinied by Barbossa, but Jones rejects his argument,

stating that he's been calling himself "Captain" Jack Sparrow for the allotted years.

Sparrow betrays Will to Davy Jones as part of a new deal to deliver 100 souls in exchange for his own.

Sparrow recruits sailors in Tortuga, where he unexpectedly encounters Elizabeth and the disgraced

James Norrington, who has turned to alcohol. Convincing Elizabeth that she can free Will by finding the

Chest, Sparrow and she head forIsla Crucesafter she pinpoints its location with Jack's magic compass.

Will also arrives, having escaped Jones's ship after stealing the key to the Chest. Will wants to stab the

heart and free his father who is in Jones's service, while Norringtonwho has discovered that Beckett

desires the heart in order to control Davy Jones and the seashopes to regain his career and honor by

delivering the heart to Beckett. Sparrow fears that if Jones is dead, the Kraken will continue hunting him,

and wants the heart as leverage.

Jones' crew arrives, and during the ensuing battle, Norrington steals the heart. Jones summons theKraken to attack the Black Pearl. After seeing his crew get attacked by the Kraken, Jack tries to escape

in the last undamaged longboat, but just as he nears an island, he is struck with remorse at abandoning

his crew, and goes back to help rescue them. Once there, he helps blow up the Kraken's tentacles

before sadly giving orders to abandon ship; when his first mateJoshamee Gibbs(Kevin McNally) asks if

he is sure that he wants to leave the Pearlbehind to the Kraken, Jack reluctantly replies, "She's only a

ship, mate."

Realizing that the Kraken only wants Sparrow, Elizabeth tricks him by giving him a passionate kiss while

chaining him to the mast to save the crew. Though Sparrow manages to free himself from the mast, he is

too late to escape before the Kraken returns. With no choice left, Jack resigns himself to his fate and

charges the beast's mouth muttering, "'Ello beastie." Sparrow and the Pearlare dragged down to Davy

Jones's Locker. The crew seeks solace at the home ofTia Dalma(Naomie Harris), who surprises them

by offering a captain who can help rescue Sparrow: Barbossa, brought back to life at her doing.[4]

Main article:Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End

By this time,Davy Jones's heart is in Cutler Beckett's possession and he begins exterminating all pirates

(and all those associated with pirates) with the Flying Dutchman under his command. In order to combat

the combined threat of Beckett and Jones, the nine pirate lords of theBrethren Courtare summoned to

convene at Shipwreck Cove. Though taken to Davy Jones's Locker at the end of the previous film,

Sparrow, who is Pirate Lord of the Caribbean, must attend the meeting, as he failed to bequeath his

"piece of eight", a pirate lord's identification marker, to an heir. The collective "nine pieces of eight" can

free the sea goddessCalypso. Barbossa leads Sparrow's crew to Davy Jones's Locker using the pirate

lordSao Feng(Chow Yun-fat)'s navigational charts. There Sparrow has been hallucinating an entire

crew of himself, each member representing a facet of his personality. After Barbossa and the crew find

him, Sparrow deciphers a clue on the charts that indicates (in a clever nod to theFata Morganamirages

attributed to the real life legend of theFlying Dutchman) they must capsize the Black Pearlto escape the

Locker; at sunset, the ship upturns back into the living world.

Sparrow and Barbossa journey to the Brethren Court where they encounter Elizabeth, who was traded to

Sao Feng, and was made a Pirate Lord by him just before he died. At the Brethren Court, she is elected

"Pirate King" after Sparrow breaks a stalemate (in all previous meetings except the first, Pirate Lords had

always voted for themselves), and Sparrow is briefly reunited with his apparently-estranged father,

Captain Teague (Keith Richards). Duringparley, he is traded for Will, who was captured by Jones and

Beckett after Sparrow sent him overboard. The Black Pearland the Flying Dutchman face off in battle

during amaelstromcreated by Calypso, during which, Sparrow steals Davy Jones's heart in order to

become immortal. However, when Jones mortally wounds Will, Jack ultimately chooses to save Will by

helping him stab the heart; killing Jones and making Will the Dutchman's new captain. Together,

the Pearland the Dutchman destroy Beckett's ship. At the end of the film, Barbossa again commandeers

the Pearland Sao Feng's charts; marooning Sparrow and Mr. Gibbs in Tortuga. Fortunately, Jack has

already removed the chart's center, and he sets sail in adinghy, using his compass and the chart to

guide him to theFountain of Youth.[5]

On Stranger Tides[edit source|editbeta]

Main article:Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides

After reaching a dead end in his search for theFountain of Youth, Sparrow makes his way to London,

where he hears of someone going by his name to gather a crew. Along the way, Sparrow poses as a

judge to save the convicted Mr. Gibbs before being captured by the Royal Guards and summoned to an

audience with the British monarch, KingGeorge II, and Barbossa, now a privateer in the Royal Navy. By

then, Sparrow crosses paths with his impostor, revealed to be an old flame namedAngelica(Penlope

Cruz) who shanghaies him to theQueen Anne's Revenge, the ship of the horrificBlackbeard(Ian

McShane) who forces Jack to help him reach the Fountain of Youth. Learning the full story behind it,Jack attempts to set up Blackbeard's demise and save the naive Angelica from her father. After some

trouble with mermaids and the Spanish Navy, he succeeds by tricking Blackbeard into giving up his life to

save Angelica. Angelica holds him accountable for her father's death even though Jack retorts that he

just did what any father would have done. Jack and Angelica admit their love for one another, but Jack

maroons Angelica on a stranded island, knowing that she will probably want to avenge her father's death.

He then has Gibbs retrieve the shrunken Black Pearlin the hopes of finding a way to restore it to regular

size. When asked about giving up his chance for immortality, Jack answers that immortality is not

everything, though he admits making a name for himself as the one who found the Fountain is good

enough immortality at the moment. After the end credits of the film, the voodoo doll of Jack is seen

drifting at sea towards the island Sparrow stranded Angelica on.[6]

Tie-ins[edit source|editbeta]

Outside films, Jack Sparrow appeared as a companion character in the 2006 video gameKingdom

Hearts II, where he was voiced byJames Arnold Taylorin the English version andHiroaki Hirata(who

in other video games, including "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest (video game)" voiced

byJames Arnold Taylorfor the second time.Pirates of the Caribbean: The Legend of Jack Sparrow,

where he was voiced byJohnny Depp, and the game adaptation ofAt World's End, where he was voiced

by Jared Butler with motion capture movements provided by Johnny Paton. The character was again

voiced by Jared Butler inPirates of the Caribbean Online, which takes place between the first and

second films. Jack is also a playable character inLego Pirates of the Caribbean: The Video Game. He is

also set to be a playable character in the upcoming video gameDisney Infinity.

Sparrow's backstory in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Complete Visual Guide indicates he was born on a

pirate ship during atyphoonin the Indian Ocean, and that he was trained tofenceby an Italian.[7]Rob

Kidd wrote an ongoing book series entitledPirates of the Caribbean: Jack Sparrow, following a teenage

Sparrow and his crew on the Barnacle as they battlesirens,mermaidsand adult pirates while looking for

various treasures. The first book, The Coming Storm, was published on June 1, 2006. In 2011,Ann C.

Character creation[edit source|editbeta]

When writing the screenplay forThe Curse of the Black Pearl,Ted ElliottandTerry Rossioenvisioned

Jack Sparrow as a supporting character, citingBugs BunnyandGroucho Marxas influences.[8]

The

producers saw him as a youngBurt Lancaster.[2]DirectorGore Verbinskiadmitted, "The first film was a

movie, and then Jack was put into it almost. He doesn't have the obligations of the plot in the same ways

that the other characters have. He meanders his way through, and he kind of affects everybody

else."[9]Sparrow represents an ethicalpirate, withCaptain Barbossaas his corruptfoil.[8]His true motives

usually remain masked, and whether he is honorable or evil depends on the audience's

perspective.[10]This acts as part ofWill Turner's arc, in which Sparrow tells him a pirate can be a good

man, likehis father.[8]

Following the success ofThe Curse of the Black Pearl, the challenge to creating a sequel was, accordingto Verbinski, "You don't want just the Jack Sparrow movie. It's like having a garlic milkshake. He's the

spice and you need a lot of straight men ... Let's not give them too much Jack. It's like too much dessert

or too much of a good thing."[9]AlthoughDead Man's Chestwas written to propel the trilogy's

plot,[11]Sparrow's state-of-mind as he is pursued byDavy Jonesbecomes increasingly edgy, and the

writers concocted the cannibal sequence to show that he was in danger whether on land or at sea.

Sparrow is also perplexed over his attraction toElizabeth Swann, and attempts to justify it throughout the

film.[12]

At World's Endwas meant to return it tonally to acharacter piece. Sparrow, in particular, is tinged with

madness after extendedsolitary confinementinDavy Jones's Locker,[11]and now

desiresimmortality.[13]Sparrow struggles with what it takes to be a moral person,[14]after his honest

streak caused his doom in the second film. This is mainly shown by his increasingly erratic behaviour

and Jack's hallucinations which appeared to be simply his deranged mind in the beginning where dozens

of "Jack Sparrows" appeared to crew the ship in his solitary exile, but later the hallucinations grew more

important and there were mainly two "Jacks" constantly arguing about which path to follow: the

immortality or the mortality. The last hallucination took place while Jack was imprisoned on the

Dutchman where his honest streak won (possibly due to not liking his sea creature-like "future" which

comedically dropped his brain and searched for it around the Brig.[15]By the end ofAt World's

EndSparrow is sailing to theFountain of Youth, an early concept for the second film.[16]Rossio has said

favorite line.[24]Disney executives were initially confused by Depp's performance, asking him whether the

character wasdrunkor gay.Michael Eisnereven proclaimed while watching rushes, "He's ruining the

film!"

[24]

Depp responded, "Look, these are the choices I made. You know my work. So either trust me orgive me the boot."[23]Many industry insiders also questioned Depp's casting, as he was an

unconventional actor not known for working within the traditional studio system.[25]

Depp's performance was highly acclaimed by film critics. Alan Morrison found it "Gloriously over-the-

top ... In terms of physical precision and verbal delivery, it's a master-class in comedy acting."[26]Roger

Ebertalso found his performance "original in its every atom. There has never been a pirate, or for that

matter a human being, like this in any other movie ... his behavior shows a lifetime of rehearsal." Ebert

also praised Depp for drawing away from the way the character was written.[27]Depp won aScreen

Actor's Guildaward for his performance, and was also nominated for aGolden Globe[28]and

theAcademy Award for Best Actor, the first in his career.[29]Film School Rejectsargued that because of

the film, Depp became as much a movie star as he was acharacter actor.[30]

Johnny Depp returned as Jack Sparrow in Dead Man's Chest, the first time the actor had ever made a

sequel.[24]Drew McWeenynoted, "Remember how coolHan Solowas inStar Warsthe first time you saw

it? And then remember how much cooler he seemed whenEmpirecame out? This is that big a

jump."[31]Depp received anMTV Movie Award[32]and aTeen Choice AwardforDead Man's Chest, and

was also nominated for anEmpire Awardand anotherGolden Globe.[33]For his performance inAt World's

End, Depp won anMTV Movie Awardfor Best Comedic Performance, as well as aPeople's Choice

Award, aKids' Choice Award, and anotherTeen Choice Award. He has signed on to reprise the role for

future sequels.[34]

Johnny Deppwore a wig to portray Sparrow'sdreadlocks, an aesthetic influenced by Depp'srock n'

rollapproach to pirates.[35]In addition to a redbandannaSparrow wears numerous objects in his hair,

influenced byKeith Richards' habit of collecting souvenirs from his travels;

[36]

Sparrow's decorationsinclude his "piece of eight".[5]Sparrow wearskohlaround his eyes, which was inspired by Depp's study

ofnomads, whom he compared to pirates,[37]and Depp also wore contacts that acted as

sunglasses.[38]Sparrow has several gold teeth, two of which belong to Depp,[39]although they were

applied during filming. Depp forgot to have them removed after shooting The Curse of the Black

Pearl,[40]and decided to keep them throughout shooting of the sequels.[2]Like all aspects of Depp's

performance, Disney initially expressed great concern over Depp's teeth.[12]Sparrow wears his goatee in

two braids. Initially wire was used in them, but the wires were abandoned because they made the braids

stick up when Depp lay down.[41]Sparrow also has numerous tattoos,[5]and has beenbrandeda pirate

on his right arm byCutler Beckett,[4]underneath a tattoo of asparrow.[3]InAt World's End, one of the

"Jack" incarnations is working stripped to the waist, and a full bodytattooof the anachronistic (1927)

poemDesideratais clearly seen.

Depp collaborated with costume designer Penny Rose on his character's appearance, handpicking

atricorneas Sparrow's signature leather hat: the other characters in the series could not wear leather

hats, to make Sparrow's unique. For the scene when it floats on water in Dead Man's Chest, a rubber

version was used.[42]Depp liked to stick to one costume, wearing one lightweight silk tweed frock coat

throughout the series,[43]and he had to be coaxed out of wearing his boots for a version without a sole or

heel in beach scenes.[44]The official line is that none of the costumes from The Curse of the Black

Pearlsurvived, which allowed the opportunity to create tougher linen shirts for stunts.[45]However, one

remains which has been displayed in an exhibition of screen costumes inWorcester, England.[46]It was a

nightmare for Rose to track down the same makers of Sparrow'ssashin Turkey. Rose did not want

tosilkscreenit, as the homewoven piece had the correct worn feel.[47]Sparrow wears an additional belt in

the sequels, because Depp liked a new buckle which did not fit with the original piece.[48]

Sparrow's weapons are genuine 18th century pieces: his sword dates to the 1740s, while his pistol is

from the 1760s. Both were made in London.[38][49]Depp used two pistols on set, one being rubber. Both

props survived after production of the first film.[50]

Sparrow's magic compass also survived into the

sequels, though directorGore Verbinskihad a red arrow added to the dial as it became a more

prominent prop. As it does not act like a normal compass, a magnet was used to make it spin.[51]Sparrow

wears four rings, two of which belong to Depp. Depp bought the green ring in 1989, and the gold ring is a

Sparrow seduced, and the green dragon ring recalls his adventures in the Far East.[52]Among Depp's

additional ideas was the necklace made of human toes that Sparrow wears as thePelegostoprepare to

eat him,

[53]

and the sceptre was based on one a friend of Depp's owned.

[54]

During the course of the trilogy, Sparrow undergoes physical transformations. In The Curse of the Black

PearlSparrow curses himself to battle the undead Barbossa. Like all the actors playing the Black

Pearlcrew, Depp had to shoot scenes in costume as a reference for the animators, and his shots as a

skeleton were shot again without him. Depp reprised the scene again on amotion capturestage.[38]InAt

World's End, Sparrow hallucinates a version of himself as a member of Davy Jones's crew, adhered to a

wall and encrusted withbarnacles. DirectorGore Verbinskioversaw that the design retained Sparrow's

distinctive look,[55]and rejected initial designs which portrayed him as over 100 years old.[56]

Characterization[edit source|editbeta]

According to screen writersTed ElliottandTerry Rossio, Sparrow is atricksterwho uses wit and deceit

to attain his goals, preferring to end disputes verbally instead of by force.[57]He walks with a slightly

drunken swagger and hasslurredspeech and flailing hand gestures, which are slightly based on Tuco

fromThe Good, The Bad and The Ugly.[8]Although Barbossa does not respect him much, as evidenced

by naming his monkey Jack, Sparrow is shrewd, calculating, and intelligent. He fools Commodore

Norrington and his entire crew to set sail on the royal ship Interceptor, which compels the admiration of

Lieutenant Groves as he concedes: 'That's got to be the best pirate I have ever seen'. Norrington himself

acquiesces to this praise: 'So it would seem', in sharp contrast to what he had previously proclaimed:

'You are without doubt the worst pirate I have ever heard of'. In the third film, while he leaves Beckett's

ship stranded and makes off, Lieutenant Groves asks him: "Do you think he plans it all out, or just makes

it up as he goes along?".[5]It was he who deciphered the seemingly unintelligible map in the same film

while the others were still grappling with the problem of returning to the real world. When theBrethren

Courtconvenes but the pirate lords fail to reach a consensus as to whether to fight the Armada or not (he

and Elizabeth are inclined to go to war, while the others are not), Jack suggests a way out of this

impasse by calling for a ritual vote whose results determine who will be the king. Every pirate lord votes

only for himself or herself, but he votes for Elizabeth, resulting her being elected the 'king', after which

she announces 'Prepare every vessel that floats. At dawn we are at war', which was what he had

intended, and which other pirates are now bound to obey.

In combat, Sparrow is a skilled swordsman (capable of holding his own against Barbossa and Davy

Jones), but uses his superior intelligence to his advantage during f ights, exploiting his environment to

turn the tables on his foes rather than relying purely on his skill with a sword. Jack usually prefers the
