Just in time for the release of the new Disney movie "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, Disney spokeswoman Cherise McVicar said "It's truly serendipitous that this happened just prior to this weekend's release of 'Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End,' as we began our film discussions with Odyssey about a year ago, long before they knew about the ship,"
In the recovery of the SS Republic in 2003 Odyssey Marine released a video produced by the National Geographic Ultimate Explorer. In a departure from working with the National Geographic, Odyssey Marine has signed on with Disney for future media productions.
If Odyssey Marine has found the Merchant Royal, a rich 17th Century shipwreck, the future media documentaries of the find (remember the Titanic?) will be hugh.
