Yep, that's right. I ship Rapunzel and Captain Jack Sparrow. I've been shipping them for a really long time, and I thought it was time to share my vision.
For this collage, I used pictures of the Disney Mirrorverse maps of Corona, home of the Crown Princess Rapunzel, from Act 1 Chapter 1: Into the Woods, and Port Royal, a frequent location of Captain Jack Sparrow, from Act 1 Chapter 2: On Stellar Tides. I also included their Disney Mirrorverse promotional posters, which are actual loading screens in the game.
From the moment they met, Jack couldn't stop talking about treasure, which kind of got on Rapunzel's nerves. But the more they fought the Fractured together, the more they appreciated and relied on each other's abilities. Since the ship name Jackunzel is already taken, lol, I like to call their main ship name TangledTreasure, as a nod to them both. Other ship names include GoldenPirate, GoldenSails, SunSparrow, RogueRadiance, and The Princess and The Pirate.

During August, 1670, Dutch pirate Captain Jelles de Lecat (aka Captain Yellows) set sail from Jamaica as part of Captain Morgan’s retaliatory force against Panama.
Prior to this date, Lecat, with fellow pirate Rock Braziliano, had sailed the Laguna de Terminos in search of plunder, and had arrived back to Port Royal in possession of a captured Spanish merchantman.

After departing Port Royal in August, compelled to join Captain Henry Morgan’s endeavor against Panama, they would briefly stop by Morgan’s base of operations at Ile a Vache for supplies before going forth to descend upon Providence Island. There, they would assist in the defeat of the island’s small Spanish garrison - the first step of Morgan’s plan to sack the city of Panama.

A ship collage of Rapunzel x Captain Jack Sparrow {TangledTreasure/SunSparrow}.
For this collage, I was inspired by my friend @frie-ice, who has incorporated Disney characters from different media in her collage work.
The first row showcases images of Captain Jack Sparrow and Rapunzel from Kingdom Hearts 3.
The second row features Rapunzel and Jack Sparrow from Disney Speedstorm.
The third row presents Captain Jack Sparrow from the Pirates of the Caribbean films and Rapunzel from Into the Woods (2024). I know this Rapunzel isn't the same as the one from Tangled. I just used it so it could go aesthetically with the live-action theme of POTC.
The fourth row highlights Rapunzel and Jack Sparrow from Disney Infinity.

🏴‍☠️ ⤷ Davy Jones: The Truth Behind The Ruthless Villain
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Several of the pirate characters in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise were based off of or inspired by one or a mix of real-life pirates, most of whom sailed during the Golden Age at the beginning of the eighteenth century when the franchise itself was set. This applies to the movie's mystical characters too, like Armando Salazar and Hector Barbossa.
However, concerning the initial trilogy's villain, this is a bit of a grey area.
Whilst there are various myths and direct sources linking to the origins of concepts like Davy Jones' locker and Jones' ship The Flying Dutchman, the actual man himself has very vague historical links (unless, miraculously, he was based on The Monkees singer, which I highly doubt).
But, nonetheless, let us look through the theories...
Tumblr media
Davy Jones: The Welsh Pirate
One story suggests that the Davy Jones character came from the frightful pirate David Jones, who sailed during the 1630s in the Indian Ocean. However, there is little known about him, which only makes this concept even more unclear.
"During the 1630s, a pirate captain named David Jones sailed through the Indian Ocean, but many historians believe that he was not famous enough to be remembered for quite a long time." [Kouachi, Mecheri & Zerrouki 25]
There are also rumours of a Welsh pirate Dafydd Jones, though it is unclear if these are the same two people. Either way, there is too little known about the figure(s) in order to make strong connections. But, having said that, if the myths of his ruthlessness are true, there is definitely a connection that can be made to our contemporary Davy Jones.
Davy Jones: The Pub Owner
A slightly stronger theory that has been circling around is the figure of a London pub owner, who would drug and/or heavily intoxicate his customers and sell them to ship captains, where they would wake and find themselves unwillingly in the middle of the ocean, or technically, 'Davy Jones' Locker'.
Some stories go on to say that Jones eventually became bankrupt, stealing a ship and becoming a pirate himself. He would sail around the Atlantic, keelhauling or decapitating other crews as well as locking them to their sinking ships.
Unfortunately, I couldn't find any direct references to quote, but I have linked some articles below that discuss this theory.
Davy Jones: The Prophet
There are some rumours that Davy Jones, or at least the origins of his name, derives from Saint David, the patron Saint of Wales, as well as the figure of the prophet Jonah from the Bible, who was swallowed by a whale.
I think it better to include this in the words of W. Pinkerton, in the scholarly journal Notes & Queries in 1851:
During many years of seafaring life, I have frequently considered the origin of this phrase, and have now arrived at the conclusion that it is derived from the scriptural account of the prophet Jonah. The word 'locker', on board of ship, generally means the place where any particular thing is retained or kept, as "bread locker", "shot locker", "chain locker", &c. In the sublime ode in the second chapter of the Book of Jonah, we find that the prophet, praying for deliverance, described his situation in the following words:—"in the midst of the seas; and the floods compassed me about; the depth closed me round about; the earth with her bars was about me." The sea, then, might not be misappropriately termed by a rude mariner, Jonah's locker—that is, the place where Jonah was kept or confined. Jonah's locker, in time, might be readily corrupted to Jones's locker; and Davy, as a very common Welsh accompaniment of the equally Welsh name, Jones, added, the true derivation of the phrase having been forgotten. [Pinkerton 509]
Davy Jones: The Devil
A very early (perhaps even the second after Defoe's writing in 1726) mention of Davy Jones' and his Locker is in 1751, in Chapter XIII of Smollett's The Adventures of Peregrine Pickle. Here, Jones is described as a devilish sort of character, with a terrifying appearance that almost resembles the typical imagery of Satan:
“By the Lord! Jack, you may say what you wool; but I'll be damned if it was not Davy Jones himself. I know him by his saucer eyes, his three rows of teeth, his horns and tail, and the blue smoke that came out of his nostrils. What does the blackguard hell's baby want with me?[...]” This same Davy Jones, according to the mythology of sailors, is the fiend that presides over all the evil spirits of the deep, and is often seen in various shapes, perching among the rigging on the eve of hurricanes, shipwrecks, and other disasters, to which a seafaring life is exposed; warning the devoted wretch of death and woe. No wonder then that Trunnion was disturbed by a supposed visit of this demon, which, in his opinion, foreboded some dreadful calamity. [Smollett 105]
This was then illustrated in 1832 by George Cruikshank, visualising all of the characteristics mentioned above.
Tumblr media
Whilst this depiction is rather different to the one we get in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, with horns rather than tentacles and blue smoke rather than the classic pipe, it's still interesting to see how Davy Jones was sometimes thought to be as horrifying as we see him now, simply based on his involvement with death at sea.
Overall, I hope that we get to find out more about the initial myths and legends that surround Davy Jones in real-world context, as I think that the information from word-of-mouth stories that we have so far are compelling already. I would love to read more older texts that reference him or his Locker, so that we might gain a better understanding of his place in seafaring history.
