Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest

(July)

Orlando Bloom — calling from a barge in the Caribbean, where Disney is simultaneously shooting two sequels to its $305 million-grossing 2003 hit — is jazzed about one particular scene in No. 2. ''There's a huge sword sequence, which, if it isn't the sword sequence that puts all sword sequences to bed, then I can't imagine what anyone could ever pull out of the ether to top it,'' he declares. It's a clash among three characters — including his Will Turner and Johnny Depp's Jack Sparrow (pictured) — ''on a big water-mill wheel as it rolls down a hill. And we fight on top of it, and around it, and inside it. It's crazy.'' Sounds it, but we're dying to know: Will Keith Richards cameo as Jack's dad? ''We're trying to work out his tour schedule with our schedule [for No. 3],'' says producer Jerry Bruckheimer. ''We're optimistic.''
