If there’s one thing we love more than Easter eggs in historical movies, it’s cameos. Paul McCartney’s cameo appearance in the 2017 installment of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise provides us not only with a glimpse of one of our favorite stars, but also a relatively unknown Easter egg. McCartney played Jack Sparrow’s “Uncle Jack” in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales. The two are reunited in a dungeon when Jack Sparrow is captured and brought in, while Uncle Jack was already a prisoner in the cell. Jack Sparrow recognizes his relative after hearing him sing “Maggie May.” This is a traditional Liverpool folk song dating back to the 1800s.
