Orlando Bloom is still in talks to return for Pirates of the Caribbean 5
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Lies will push ahead as expected and Orlando Bloom was said to have been in conversation with producers in a possible reprisal of his role as Will Turner or yet another character.
Initially, Bloom has been reported that he will not join the fifth installment in the series, but the actor said that he is still in negotiations to appear in the movie.
The 37-year-old British actor revealed this news via an interview with IGN on Tuesday. The film will be shooting early next year in Australia.
Bloom had said in the interview that, 'I'm not entirely sure that [I'll be back] just yet, but there are talks.
'Basically they want to reboot the whole franchise, I think, and do something with me and the relationship with my son.
'I'm of course Davey Jones now, so I'm down the bottom of the ocean. It might be kind of fun to do something where I'm rumbling round the bottom of the ocean, because I won't look anything like me. Get all gnarly.'
The only major actor confirmed to return is none other than Capt. Jack Sparrow himself, Johnny Depp.
On the other hand, Aussie Geoffrey Rush might also reprise Capt. Barbossa, while Javier Bardem might be playing Capt. Brand, a new villain in the film.
Joachim Ronning and Espen Sandberg (Kon-Tiki) will be helming the fifth installment and has a July 2017 release date.
In a report by the Daily Mail, the Department Of Agriculture of Australia had a certain rule that certain animals will be quarantined for 30 days and that the shooting might be delayed.
Apparently, this was not true according to a spokesperson from Jerry Bruckheimer on Thursday.
"The bottom line is that all procedures are being observed and nothing is holding up production," they told Daily Mail Australia.
