Jack Sparrow is a fictional character in the Pirates of the Caribbean universe. He was introduced in the film Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003) and the back-to-back sequels, Dead Man's Chest (2006) and At World's End (2007), where he was played by Johnny Depp. He is the subject of a self-titled children's book series chronicling his adolescent years and was also introduced into the revamped version of theme park ride that inspired the films, both of which began in 2006. He has also appeared in numerous video games.

Sparrow is pirate lord of the Caribbean Sea, and enjoys the freedom of his occupation, drinking rum and seducing women while looking for supernatural treasures. He engages in much dealing and treachery, preferring to use negotiation and wits over weapons to survive. Sparrow is introduced as seeking to regain his ship the Black Pearl from his treacherous first mate Hector Barbossa, and spends much of the sequels trying to escape his blood debt to Davy Jones and battling the East India Trading Company. Despite his rude or cowardly behaviour, he is nonetheless an honorable and likeable character.

Initially Sparrow was conceived in the first film as a trickster who guides the hero Will Turner (Orlando Bloom), but Johnny Depp's performance completely changed that. His eccentric performance, inspired by Pepe LePew and Keith Richards, turned Sparrow into the breakout character and earned Depp's first Academy Award nomination. Sparrow became an iconic anti-hero, and in a case of life-imitates-art, Richards signed on to play the the character's father in the third film.

Appearances

Film trilogy

Jack Sparrow first appears in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003), where he arrives in Port Royal in a sinking boat, ready to commandeer a ship of his own. Despite rescuing Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley), the daughter of Governor Weatherby (Jonathan Pryce) from drowning, he is arrested and put in prison after a duel with Will Turner (Orlando Bloom). That night, the pirate ghost ship the Black Pearl attacks Port Royal and kidnaps Elizabeth. Will frees Sparrow, and they hijack the HMS Interceptor to rescue her. They acquire a crew on Tortuga before sailing to Isla de Muerta where Elizabeth is held. They rescue her but are captured by Captain Barbossa at sea. Barbossa maroons Sparrow and Elizabeth on an desert island while Will is taken back to Isla de Muerta for a blood sacrifice to lift the curse the Black Pearl are under. It is revealed Sparrow was the captain of the Black Pearl before first mate Hector Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush) led a mutiny and marooned him on the desert island, the same one Barbossa leaves him and Elizabeth on. Sparrow was given a pistol with one shot. The island was used by rumrunners, which allowed Sparrow to escape, though over the years a tall tale evolves that he escaped on two sea turtles.[1]

The British Royal Navy finds them, and Sparrow makes a deal to deliver them the Black Pearl. During the battle, Sparrow curses himself to battle Barbossa before shooting him with the same shot he has carried for ten years, just as Will breaks the curse, killing him. The Royal Navy arrest the surviving pirates including Sparrow, who is sentenced to death. At his hanging, Will helps him escape, but they are quickly caught. Will is pardoned, and Sparrow escapes by falling off the sea wall. Sparrow is picked up by the Black Pearl crew, and he is captain once more. Commodore James Norrington (Jack Davenport) gives him one day's head start.[1] In the sequel's backstory Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest (2006), Norrington pursues Sparrow and loses him and his own ship in a hurricane. Sparrow has been searching for the Dead Man's Chest. Thirteen years prior, Sparrow bartered his soul to the ghostly Davy Jones (Bill Nighy) to raise the sunken Black Pearl and making him captain. Now Sparrow must either serve for 100 years on the Flying Dutchman, or be taken by the Kraken to Jones' Locker. Sparrow must find the Dead Man's Chest containing Jones' heart to kill Jones and free himself from the curse. Sparrow hides on Pelegosto where the local tribesmen believe he is a god in human form, and must be eaten to release his soul. Meanwhile, Will and Elizabeth are arrested by the East India Trading Company for helping Sparrow escape. Lord Cutler Beckett (Tom Hollander) wants Will to deliver Sparrow and his magic compass, which leads to whatever the holder wants most, or they will both be executed.[2]

Will finds Sparrows on Pelegosto and they set sail. Sparrow betrays Will to Jones, as part of a new deal that if he can deliver 100 souls then he can be freed of his debt. Sparrow recruits pirates in Tortuga, and meets up with an escaped Elizabeth and a disgraced Norrington, who resigned his commission. Convincing Elizabeth that to free Will they must find the Chest, she uses the compass to pinpoint its location on Isla Cruces. There, Will appears, having escaped Jones' ship and stolen the key to the Chest. Will wants to stab the heart and free his father from Jones' service, while Norrington wants it to regain his position, and Jones' crew arrives to kill them. During the battle that follows, Norrington takes the heart to nobody else's knowlege. At sea, the Kraken attacks the Black Pearl, and Elizabeth ties Sparrow to the mast to save the rest of the crew: Sparrow is dragged down to the Locker.[2] However, in Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End (2007), with Jones' heart now in Beckett's possession, the nine pirate lords of the Brethren Court must gather to combat the combined threat of the Flying Dutchman and the East India Trading Company. Sparrow, who is lord of the Caribbean, must attend as he did not pass his "piece of eight" to an heir, which can be used to summon the goddess Calypso to their aid. A resurrected Barbossa leads Sparrow's crewmates to rescue him.[3]

Barbossa's crew sail over the World's End into the Locker, where Sparrow is suffering hallucinations of an entire crew comprised of himself, each representing a part of his personality. Sparrow deduces the map of Sao Feng (Chow Yun-Fat) that to escape they must capsize the Black Pearl: at sunset it upturns back to the living world. Sparrow attends the meeting, where he votes Elizabeth "Pirate King" following a stalemate (the other lords voted for themselves). He is traded for Will who was captured by Jones and Beckett. During the battle between the Black Pearl and the Flying Dutchman in a maelstrom created by Calypso, Sparrow steals the Dead Man's Chest and battles Jones. He also helps a mortally wounded Will stab Jones' heart, killing him and making Will the new captain of the Flying Dutchman. He then captains the Black Pearl to destroy Beckett's ship. Afterwards, the Black Pearl is stolen by Barbossa, but Sparrow tears out the useful part of Feng's map. Sparrow is last seen on a boat, using his compass to guide him to the Fountain of Youth.[3]

Tie-ins

Jack Sparrow first appeared as a playable character in the 2005 video game Kingdom Hearts II, where he was voiced by James Arnold Taylor in the English version and Hiroaki Hirata in the Japanese version. His role in the game is presumably non-canonical with the rest of Pirates fiction. Sparrow has since appeared in other video games, Pirates of the Caribbean: The Legend of Jack Sparrow, and the adaptations of Dead Man's Chest and At World's End, where he was voiced by Johnny Depp in these games. The character is also set to appear in Pirates of the Caribbean Online, which takes place before the films.

Sparrow's backstory is given in the The Complete Visual Guide that he was born on a ship during a typhoon in the Indian Ocean.[4] Rob Kidd wrote an ongoing series of books entitled Pirates of the Caribbean: Jack Sparrow, following a teenage Sparrow and his crew on the Barnacle as they battle sirens, mermaids and adult pirates while looking for various treasures. The first book, The Coming Storm, was published on June 1 2006. On the website for Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, it is explained that Sparrow used to work for the East India Trading Company and captained the Wicked Wench. When he refused to transport slaves, he was branded a pirate and his ship was sunk. Sparrow then commissions Davy Jones to raise his ship, which he rechristened the Black Pearl.[5]

Characterization

"Me? I'm dishonest. And a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. Honestly. It's the honest ones you want to watch out for, because you can never predict when they're going to do something incredibly stupid."
— The unpredictable Sparrow betrays Barbossa[1]

According to screenwriters Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio, Sparrow is a trickster.[6] Sparrow walks in a slightly drunken swagger, accompanied by slurred speech and awkwardly flailing hand gestures that make him appear unfocused, acting as a distraction as he is not an adept fighter.[7] Will Turner initially believes Sparrow suffers heatstroke, but after being a pawn in his games, notes that Sparrow plans everything beforehand.[1] Sparrow prefers non-violent methods of negotiation and analyzing situations to turn enemies against each other.[2] He will often invoke parley and tempt his enemies from murderous mindsets to see the bigger picture, which he does to draw Hector Barbossa away from a blood sacrifice to a battle with the British Royal Navy.[1] He often uses his vocabulary to simply confuse people too.[1][2] It is because of his mostly pacifist attitude that Barbossa and the crew of the Black Pearl mutineed against him,[1] and such tactics earn the respect of Lieutenant Groves (Greg Ellis), who even asks Cutler Beckett, "Do you think he plans it all out, or just makes it up as he goes along?"[3]

In keeping with his preference to not fight, Sparrow also creates a mythic status onto himself. He explains that he escapes off the desert island Barbossa marooned him on by strapping two sea turtles together with rope made of his back hair, when he had actually been in the company of rumrunners.[1] There was a scene in the script of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest in which Will's guide explains that he heard Sparrow escaped execution in Port Royal by holding two parrots and flying away.[8] Actor Johnny Depp compared pirates to rock stars in that their legendary status preceded them, which give Sparrow an enormous ego.[6] When Barbossa accuses Sparrow of being a coward, he begins an embarassing arguement in front of the Brethren Court in order to not sully his reputation.[3] Sparrow insists on being referred to as "Captain Jack Sparrow"[1] and always gives the farewell "You will remember this as the day you almost caught Captain Jack Sparrow", which is humourously cut off at times.[1][2] When Norrington insults him as the "worst pirate I have ever heard of", Sparrow answers, "But you have heard of me".[1] In a deleted scene from The Curse of the Black Pearl Sparrow ponders being "The immortal Captain Jack Sparrow",[9] and during the third film he continues to attempt stabbing Jones' heart to achieve immortality, though his father warns him it can be a terrible curse. Sparrow also ponders being "Captain Jack Sparrow, the last pirate" as the East India Trading Company tightens its grip on the seas.[3]

Despite his many heroics in the series, Sparrow is a pirate and intended to be a morally ambigious character.[10] When deciding to sell 100 people to Davy Jones in exchange for his freedom, Jones asks Sparrow as whether he can "condemn an innocent man - a friend - to a lifetime of servitude in your name while you roam free?", to which Sparrow meekly replies "Yep!"[2] Sparrow's selfishness extends to refusing help, saying he wouldn't dream of accepting Beckett's Letter of marque and act as a privateer,[2] and he constantly argues with Barbossa despite leading his rescue.[3] He carelessly runs into debts with Anamaria,[1] Davy Jones and the other pirate lords.[3] Sparrow abandons his crew during the Kraken's attack, but when he uses his compass he realizes he truly wants to help them.[11] Sparrow claims to be a man of his word,[1] and expresses surprise that more people don't believe his truthfulness.[2] A sense of honor is revealed in his official backstory in which he refused to transport slaves,[5] nor is there murder or rape on his criminal record.[1][12]

Depp admitted he partly based the character on Pepe Le Pew, a womanising skunk from Looney Tunes.[13] Sparrow claims to have a "tremendous intuitive sense of the female creature",[2] and has a had a string of affairs that end bitterly. Whenever he meets with two Tortugan "wenches" Scarlett and Giselle, they slap him. He seems to have a charm and wit that makes many women fall in love with him, including Elizabeth Swann, who ends up not being sure whether or not it is Sparrow or Will Turner whom she loves.[1] However, Sparrow says his "first and only love is the sea",[2] and the Black Pearl represents his freedom.[1] Director Gore Verbinski noted phallic connotations in Sparrow's relationship with his ship,[14] which is described as "the only ship which can outrun the Flying Dutchman".[3] Due to his love of the sea, Davy Jones' Locker becomes a desert to be Sparrow's personal hell.[8] Sparrow also has awful personal hygiene, a trait of Pepe Le Pew. Verbinski described Sparrow as having "breath like a donkey's ass",[14] which Sparrow even uses to get Will off his ship by breathing on him.[3] Lastly, Sparrow has an insatiable thirst for rum, which can confuse his magic compass as to what he wants most.[2][3] According to his criminal record on the At World's End website, he even sacked a shipment of rum to quench his thirst.[12]

Concept and creation

Character creation

When writing the screenplay for Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio envisioned Jack Sparrow as a supporting character, citing Bugs Bunny and Groucho Marx as influences.[7] The producers also envisioned him as like a young Burt Lancaster.[13] Director Gore Verbinski admitted, "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."[15] Sparrow represents a good pirate, with Captain Barbossa as his foil.[7] Sparrow is a mysterious character, with the question being whether he is a good or bad character, and how it depends on the audience's perspective.[16] This acts as part of Will Turner's (Orlando Bloom) arc, in which he learns a pirate can be a good man, like his father.[7]

Following the success of The Curse of the Black Pearl, the challenge of the sequel was, according to 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."[15] Although the purpose of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest was to keep the plot moving,[17] Sparrow's state of mind being chased by Davy Jones is increasingly edgy, and the writers concocted the cannibal sequence to show Sparrow was neither safe on land or sea. Sparrow is also perplexed over his attraction to Elizabeth Swann, and is trying to find a justification for it throughout the film.[8]

The purpose of Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End was to return it tonally to a character piece. Sparrow in particular is tinged with madness after spending extended solitary confinement in Davy Jones' Locker,[17] and he begins to desire immortality.[18] As with all characters in the film, Sparrow struggles with what it takes to be a good person,[10] after his honest streak caused his doom in the second film.[19] By the end of At World's End Sparrow is boating to the Fountain of Youth, an early concept for possible later sequels.[20] Rossio has said they may write the screenplay for a fourth film,[21] and producer Jerry Bruckheimer has expressed interest in a spin-off,[22] so Sparrow may return once more.

Johnny Depp

Johnny Depp was looking to do a family film in 2001, and was visiting Walt Disney Studios when he heard of plans to adapt the Pirates of the Caribbean ride into a film. Depp was excited and nervous by the possibility of reviving an old Hollywood genre,[13] and was further delighted that the script met his quirky sensibilities: the crew of the Black Pearl were not trying to find treasure, but were instead trying to return it and lift their curse. In addition, the mutiny had already taken place.[14] Depp was cast on June 10 2002.[23] Producer Jerry Bruckheimer felt Depp was, "an edgy actor who will kind of counter the Disney Country Bears soft quality and tell an audience that an adult and teenager can go see this and have a good time with it."[24]

At the first read-through, Depp surprised the rest of the cast and crew by portraying the character in an off-kilter manner.[25] After researching 18th century pirates, Depp compared them to modern rock stars and decided to base his performance on Keith Richards.[24] Verbinski and Bruckheimer had confidence in Depp, partly because Orlando Bloom would be playing the traditional Errol Flynn-type.[14] Depp also improvised the final line of the film, "Bring me that horizon!", which is the writer's favourite line.[25] Disney executives were confused, asking Depp whether the character was drunk or gay, and Michael Eisner even proclaimed while watching rushes, "He's ruining the film!"[25] Depp answered back, "Look, these are the choices I made. You know my work. So either trust me or give me the boot."[24] Many industry insiders also questioned Depp's casting, as he was an unconventional actor not known for working within the studio system.[26]

Depp's performance was highly acclaimed. Alan Morrison found it, "Gloriously over-the-top... In terms of physical precision and verbal delivery, it's a masterclass in comedy acting."[27] Roger Ebert also 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 praised Depp for also drawing away from the way the character was written.[28] Although he disliked the film, Kenneth Turan enjoyed Depp's performance,[29] but Mark Kermode felt it was some of Depp's "worst work to date... under [director Gore Verbinski]'s slack direction Depp defaults to an untrammelled showiness not seen since the sub-Buster Keaton antics of Benny & Joon."[30] Depp won a Screen Actor's Guild award for his performance, and was also nominated for a Golden Globe[31] and an Academy Award, the first in his career.[32] Ultimately, the film made Depp a movie star as well as a character actor.[33]

An initial costume concept for Jack Sparrow before Depp's ideas took hold

Johnny Depp returned as Jack Sparrow in 2006's Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, the first time the actor ever made a sequel.[25] Drew McWeeny noted, "Remember how cool Han Solo was in Star Wars the first time you saw it? And then remember how much cooler he seemed when Empire came out? This is that big a jump."[34] Yet, Eric Vespe felt that, "In the first movie he was playing a fool that was hiding a great pirate on the inside and in this one he's a great pirate hiding a cowardly fool."[35] By At World's End Peter Travers felt it proved "there can indeed be too much of a good thing."[36] Nonetheless, Depp recieved an MTV Movie Award[37] and a Teen Choice Award for Dead Man's Chest, and was also nominated for a Golden Globe.[38] Depp has expressed further interest in portraying Sparrow for a fourth and fifth film, believing he has yet to explore the full potential of the character.[39]

Make-up and costumes

Johnny Depp wore a wig to portray Sparrow's dreadlocks, an aesthetic influenced by Depp's rock n' roll approach to pirates, and also wore a red bandana over it.[40] Sparrow wears numerous objects in his hair, which was influenced by Keith Richards' manner of keeping souvenirs from his travels,[41] which includes Sparrow's "piece of eight".[3] Sparrow wears kohl around his eyes, which was inspired by Depp's study of nomads who he compared to pirates,[42] and Depp also wore contacts that acted as sunglasses.[43] Sparrow has gold teeth, two of which belong to Depp,[44] although they were applied during filming. Depp forgot to have them removed after shooting The Curse of the Black Pearl,[45] and decided to keep them throughout shooting of the sequels.[13] Like all of Depp's performance, Disney initially expressed great concern over Depp's teeth.[8] Sparrow wears his goatee in two braids, and initially wire was used in them, but they were abandoned when they stuck up when Depp laid down.[46] Sparrow also has numerous tattoos,[3] and has been branded a pirate on his right arm by Cutler Beckett.[2]

Depp heavily collaborated with costume designer Penny Rose on the look of the character, handpicking the tricorne as Sparrow's signature hat: being made of leather meant the other characters in the series could not wear leather, to make Sparrow unique. For scenes when it floats on water in Dead Man's Chest, a rubber version was used.[47] Depp liked to stick to one costume, wearing one lightweight silk tweed coat throughout the series,[48] and he had to be coaxed out of wearing his boots for a version without a sole or heel in beach scenes.[49] None of the rest of the costumes from The Curse of the Black Pearl survived: this did allow opportunity to make the linen of his shirt tougher for stunts,[50] though it was a nightmare for Rose to track down the same makers of Sparrow's sash in Turkey. Rose did not want to silkscreen it, as the homemade piece had the correct worn feel.[51] Sparrow wears an additional belt in the sequels, because Depp liked a new buckle which didn't fit with the original piece.[52]

The weapons used by Sparrow are genuine 18th century pieces: his sword dates back to the 1740s, while his pistol dates back from the 1760s, and both were made in London.[53][43] Depp used two pistols on set, one of which was rubber. Both props survived after production of the first film.[54] Sparrow's magic compass also survived into the sequels, though director Gore Verbinski had a red arrow added to the dial as it became a more prominent prop. As the compass does not act like a normal compass, a magnet was put in for it to spin.[55] Sparrow wears four rings, two of which belong to Depp. Depp bought the green ring in 1989, and the gold ring is a replica of a 2400-year old ring Depp gave to the crew, though the original was later stolen. The other two are props which Depp gave backstories to: the gold-and-black ring is stolen from a Spanish widow Sparrow seduced, and the green dragon ring recalls his adventures in the Far East.[56] Among Depp's further ideas was the necklace made of human toes Sparrow wears as the Pelegosto prepare to eat him,[57] and the scepter was based on one a friend of Depp's owned.[58]

During the course of the trilogy, Sparrow undergoes physical transformations. In The Curse of the Black Pearl Sparrow curses himself to battle the undead Barbossa. Like all the actors playing the crew of the Black Pearl, 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 a motion capture stage.[43] In At World's End, Sparrow hallucinates a version of himself as a member of Davy Jones' crew, stuck to a wall and encrusted with barnacles. Director Gore Verbinski led the design in order to not lose Sparrow's iconic look.[59] Initial designs of Sparrow in this form portrayed him as over 100 years old, before being drawn closer to Depp's appearance.[60]

When Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest grossed over $1 billion worldwide, Ian Nathan attributed this to Sparrow's popularity. "Pirates, the franchise, only had to turn up. There was a powerful holdover from the cheeky delights of its debut, something we hadn't felt since the Clone Wars called it a day."[61] Empire declared Johnny Depp's performance to be the seventy-fourth "thing that rocked our world" in 2006 when celebrating 200 issues.[62] A survey of more than 3,000 people showed Jack Sparrow was the most popular Halloween costume of 2006,[63] and a 2007 poll held by the Internet Movie Database showed Sparrow to be the second most popular live action hero, after Indiana Jones.[64] In a 2007 Pearl & Dean poll, Jack Sparrow is Depp's most popular performance.[65]

Emanuel Levy feels the character is the only iconic film character of the 2000s,[6] while Todd Gilchrist feels Sparrow is the only element of the films that will remain timeless.[66] According to Sharon Eberson, the character's popularity can be attributed to being "scoundrel whose occasional bouts of conscience allow viewers to go with the flaws because, as played to the larger-than-life hilt by Depp, he owns every scene he is in."[67] Film history professor at UCLA Jonathan Kuntz also attributed his popularity to the increased questioning of masculinity in the 21st century, and Sparrow's personality contrasts to previous action-adventure heroes in cinema. Leonard Maltin concurs that Sparrow has a carefree attitude and does not take himself seriously.[68] Mark Fox also noted Sparrow is an escapist fantasy figure for women, free of much of the responsibility from most heroes.[69]

In addition to his role in the Pirates of the Caribbean series, Sparrow was parodied as "Jack Swallows" in Epic Movie (2007), where he was played by Darrell Hammond.[70] Sparrow also cameos in the DC Comics series 52 with a group of time-displaced pirates and robots.[71] In the video game Fable, a tombstone in Lychfield Graveyard reads "Cpt. J. Sparrow. A wind at your back forever, sir".
