The Kraken is a fictional sea monster in the Pirates of the Caribbean film trilogy. The monster made its first appearance in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest as an antagonist portrayed through Computer-generated imagery. Although a creation of Industrial Light & Magic for Dead Man's Chest and designed by the film's producers, the Kraken is heavily based on the mythological creature featured in nautical lore by the same name. Walt Disney Pictures also became the first studio to produce this mythological creature using CGI. The Kraken makes a final small, though symbolic, appearance in the final film in the trilogy, Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End.
