Behind the scenes[]
- Ensigns would first appear in Pirates of the Caribbean Online.
- In Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio's original screenplay draft for Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, an Ensign was stationed aboard the HMS Endeavor when Sir Cutler Beckett and a lieutenant examined a message in a bottle left on a corpse, discovering a bread crumb trail of bodies in the water. Beckett and the lieutenant told the Ensign to adjust course.[1] In the Calypso's Fury production draft,[2] Lord Beckett told the lieutenant (named Greitzer) to adjust course rather than the Ensign, who does not make an appearance either in the final cut of the film and its junior novelization.[3][4]
