10 Movies You Didn't Realise Had Post-Credit Scenes
2. Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl
Pirates of the Caribbean was one of the first series of movies to feature post credit scenes in each instalment. Some are just comic relief, but the scene in The Curse of the Black Pearl answers a question that many fans have wondered.
In the scene, we see Barbossa's dead body still lying in Isla De Muerta after Captain Jack Sparrow shot him. His pet, Jack, the Capuchin monkey scampers up the mound of treasure and pockets one of the cursed gold coins. He then appears once again as his skeletal self before the screen cuts to black.
As well as being a fun little Easter egg for fans, the scene explains how Jack the monkey is still immortal later in the series when it is never explained in the main story. Upon re-watches, this cheeky scene answers what many fans thought was merely a plot hole in the later films.
