Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End is the third part of the trilogy initiated by the 2003 film Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl and followed by the 2006 film Dead Man's Chest. At World's End is directed by Gore Verbinski, the director of the previous two films. The film's cast includes returnees Johnny Depp, Keira Knightley, Orlando Bloom, Bill Nighy, Geoffrey Rush, and Jack Davenport. Chow Yun-Fat makes his first appearance in the franchise as the film's antagonist. Disney has announced a global release date of May 25, 2007.

At the end of Dead Man's Chest, Will Turner, Elizabeth Swann, and their company find refuge with Tia Dalma, who offers the opportunity to embark on a journey to rescue Captain Jack Sparrow from his watery grave. Tia Dalma announces the need for a captain that will guide them to "World's End", prompting the appearance of Captain Barbossa, believed to have been dead. The second film ended there.

Tia Dalma helps the crew to rescue Sparrow.The ensemble joins forces to rescue Captain Jack Sparrow (and later Bootstrap Bill Turner) and defeat the alliance between Davy Jones, Cutler Beckett, and Admiral James Norrington. Jack Sparrow is also antagonistic towards Barbossa, though they remain reluctant allies. According to director Gore Verbinski, "Piracy itself is at stake. It's like the railroad coming to the West. There will be a conference of the world's pirate leaders and a treacherous journey to the literal 'worlds end'."
