It showed the stars Johny Depp, Orlando , Keira Knightly, and Geoffrey Rush. PLus it showed short footage of the movie (some screenshots). It looked pretty cool and there seems to be a lot of adventure and action in it. It also mentioned that the trailer will indeed be shown simultaneously on Sunday on all those different channels. The movie looks really interesting!! And for Canadian fans: ET repeats at midnight on Global!

Jan Carl, one of the hosts interviewed Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom. Jan Carl said," Let me see your teeth." Johnny opened his mouth to a couple of black teeth that he sported for his role as Captain Jack Sparrow. He told us that his 3-year old daughter doesn't really like his new look. Ladies turn on your fans because there was a little part about Orlando, too. There was one scene that showed him fencing and kicking butt! Go Orlando! Jan Carl asked Orlando,"Do you get the girl?" Orlando replies," Definitely! I definitely get the girl of course! There was another scene where Pirate Captain Barbossa, played by Geoffrey Rush, walks through a shadow and he appears as a skeleton when he interrogates Elizabeth Swann, played by Keira Knightley. On this certain episode, they also mentioned Liv Tyler's marriage to Royston Langdon.

I caught it on tape (though I don't know how or have the eqmt. for making screencaps), and here's what was in the spot: Various shots, including shots of Johnny in pirate garb, various shots of pirates fighting, then a shot of Johnny talking to someone, and (very animatedly gesturing) saying "Cruel, demented, vicious pirates that cannot be killed...", a couple more quick shots, then one of a skeletal hand coming at Johnny's throat, with him saying "That's interesting".
Then, they show a shot of Barbossa, and then someone (it almost looks like Orlando, but I could be wrong) swinging off the mast of a ship, then Elizabeth being cornered by Barbossa, and him turning skeletal when the moonlight hits him- he tells her, "You best start believin' in ghost stories, Ms. Turner- YOU"RE IN ONE!", and she looks on, terrified.
Then, they show a shot of Will (Orlando) and a man fighting in the midst of a battle through the streets, and Will looks up to see a sign starting to fall, and he ducks in time to miss it as it hits his attacker, and he looks back up and at the guy, and gives this, "Whew! That was close" look. Then, they show the same battle scenes from the beginning of the segment again, and go into a supposedly new "behind-the-scenes" interview w/ Johnny (it's the same one that had been available for download from ET Online- nothing new), then, they get to Orlando- they show a scene they're filming where he's on the deck of a ship and maneuvering around a rope- there's a voiceover while this is playing: "Lord of the Rings heartthrob Orlando Bloom co-stars in the Jerry Bruckheimer production that hits theatres July 9th".
They also, during this time, show a clip of them filming a scene, where Will has his hands tied behind his back, and has his back to a pirate (note: he looks EXACTLY like he does, at this point, from the promo poster, with the hair down and open-in-the-front shirt). When they yell action, someone behind the camera tosses Orlando a sword, he frees his hands, and manages to knock over the pirate behind him. Then, they show Mary Hart talking to Orlando, and she says, "Do you get the girl?", and he says, smiling and raising his eyebrows, "I do! I get the girl!"- he looks so sweet when he says it, too :-).
Then, they show Johnny and someone (looks kinda like Barbossa), and they're on the deck of the ship, and then the rest of the clip (about 15 seconds or so) is Johnny talking about his 3-year-old daughter's reaction to his pirate garb and teeth. Just thought you might like to know :-).
