Appearances
Cutler Beckett makes no appearance in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, although it is mentioned that Jack managed to escape several agents of the East India Trading Co.. The books state that Jack's arm was branded because Jack freed prisoners on his ship and furious Beckett in response ordered Jack's ship to be sunk and Jack branded a pirate. Jack then was found by Davy Jones and Jack promised Jones to serve Jones's ship The Flying Dutchman if Jones raised the Pearl.
