Behind the scenes
- The Pirate Captain was voiced by Paul Frees in the original Pirates of the Caribbean ride. He was featured on the ride until the 2006 revamp of the ride, in which he was replaced by Hector Barbossa.
- This character was based on the infamous, real-world pirate Edward "Blackbeard" Teach.[3]
- One of the Pirate Captain's lines from the ride were used in At World's End in the blackout transition from World's End to Davy Jones' Locker.
- In 2006, the toy figure of the Pirate Captain was released under the name "Captain".
- In the non-canon Kingdom Keepers book series, the Pirate Captain and other figures from the ride come to life. The Captain appears only in the first book, Disney After Dark, where he identifies himself as Blackbeard.
