Rumor has it that Robert Pattinson will trade in his role as a romantic vampire for that of a pirate. 

The fourth edition of Pirates of the Caribbean will be called Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Shores, and is supposed to come out in 2011 in the summer. Although there is a lot of time between now and then, they are looking for someone to substitute Orlando Bloom, as he no longer wishes to continue. 

They are thinking Robert Pattinson would be a good replacement, because his name attracts an audience. Pattinson would most likely play the part of Jack Sparrow's brother.  It would be hilarious to see Robert as a sort of Jack Sparrow, with eyeshadow and long black hair. Can you imagine?
