One of my favorite things to do is compare celebrities, especially when they work together on a film. After a POTC marathon with my sister, we decided to see who could come up with the randomest facts about each of the three main actors: Keira Knightley, Orlando Bloom, and of course, Johnny Depp. Everyone knows that Johnny is the infamous Jack Sparrow, and that Keira's British accent is authentic, but exactly how detailed is your star knowledge? Read below and find out!
-For all you Jack/Elizabeth shippers, Depp and Knightley are over 20 years apart in age (22, to be exact). Eww! On the other hand, Bloom is only 8 years older than Keira. That's a more manageable age difference.
-Orlando is actually one inch taller than Johnny Depp.
-Depp is not only an actor, but a musician as well. Who knew?
-Keira Knightley and Orlando Bloom were both born in England...Depp is the only one from the States!
-Although "Orlando Bloom" is Bloom's real name, he has not one but two middle names: Jonathan Blanchard. (For the record, Johnny's middle name is Christopher, and Keira's is Christina. Looks like Bloom is out of the loop on this one!)
-All three of the actors received international fame for POTC!! Yeah pirates!!

Why do we love the characters of shows and series?
Well there are two reasons 1. Because the producer or the director was incredibly smart 2. Because the actor is too lovable and too good at what he or she does.
With Pirates of the Caribbean it is a little bit of both.
Take Jack Sparrow as an example, Jack is a rediculously hilarious hot pirate. If anyone else but Jonny Depp played that character, then Jack Sparrow would have basically flopped, because Jonny is so good at making that character coe to life. Also take in consideration of Will, he is an irresistibly hot and sexy pirate who is very funny. How does this character work? Orlando Bloom of course! Orlando is very good at every acting job he has had. Really think of it, what would POC be like if Jack Sparrow was played by George Clooney or if Will Turner was played by Justin Timberlake? There is only one answer disaster! The acing is too good. POC thatno one else can ply the characters!
