User blog comment:X9 The Android/Interview Questions with Terry Rossio/@comment-1984959-20190917095201

First, I have to congratulate X9 The Android on this upcoming interview. Even I couldn't reached farther than Jim Byrkit, even though I had super fun with that interview. At any rate, best of luck!

And if it's not too late to give questions...
 * 1) There was an idea that started in P4 that would've continued in P5. Jack and Barbossa successful con the other, not knowing they are each being conned. Barbossa didn't know about the Pearl being shrunk and bottled, believing it to be sunk. Jack didn't know about the Sword of Triton having a sapphire embedded with power. What happened to that storyline? Was it simply changed because of confusion?

The rest I guess I'm stealing from comments below mine, just because I think they're important queries:
 * 1) What are your feelings on the fourth and fifth films compared to the trilogy? And given the changes to some POTC continuity, how different was your script for DMTNT to the final version? Why was it dropped? Was there a lot of producer and studio interference?
 * 2) Here's one continuity-related question. In At World's End Will and Elizabeth's son, played by Dominic Scott Kay, was called Young Will Turner. In 2013 it was rumored that one of the main characters in Dead Men Tell No Tales would be Henry Maddox, a brash young British officer who would intercept Jack Sparrow in his journey and fall head over heels for Carina Smyth in the process. Was that Henry later reimagined as Will and Elizabeth's son or was Henry meant to be a Turner right from the beginning?
