Captain Jack Sparrow

Jack Sparrow is a pirate who used to command the Black Pearl. About ten years prior to the start of the movie, while searching for a legendary cache of Aztec gold his crew mutinied and marooned him on an island with a pistol containing a single shot (in order to kill himself instead of letting starvation kill him). However, he escaped, and went looking for revenge against the leader of the mutiny: First Mate (now Captain) Barbossa. He kept the pistol and shot for the purpose of shooting Barbossa with it.

When Sparrow meets Will Turner, he immediately sees him as a leverage to get back his "Black Pearl". Sparrow takes Turner to Tortuga and to the Isla de Muerta, although the Turner is totally against piracy.

One of his characteristic attributes is a slightly drunken walk (more of a stagger, accompanied by very random flailing hand gestures) which makes him look unfocused—that may partially be a ploy to put people off their guard but is falsely attributed to the heat stroke he was rumored to have suffered when marooned. However, he instead spent the time marooned cavorting with rum runners, and thus, was unlikely to have suffered anything worse than a severe hangover. His drunkenness could also lead to his tendency to slur his speech.

Another characteristic of his is a quite atypical (for a pirate) altruistic nature, as he often puts himself in harm's way to save other people, notably Elizabeth Swann. It can be assumed that Jack's more kind nature is part of the reason why his crew mutinied, due to the fact when Jack suggests an unviolent way to find a piece of the Aztec Gold on the Interceptor, Barbossa claims, "Jack, that's exactly the attitude that lost you the Pearl. People are easier to search when they're dead."

At the end of the first film, Jack is once again the Captain of the Black Pearl.


Jack makes an appearance in the Kingdom Hearts II as an active member of the party.
