Pirates of the Caribbean 5 Release Date is Set to July 2017, Less Mythical But with New Characters. Is this Really the Last in the Series?
One of the latest news to hit the entertainment scene is that Pirates of the Caribbean 5, everyone's favorite captain, will be sailing back to the big screen by 2017.
The Pirates of the Caribbean 5 will have a more pirate-centric storyline with less mystical characters and possible returning characters alongside new ones to make this new adventure swashbuckling fun. Though originally slated to be released in 2016, the main cause of the delay was due to issues with the script.
Some have said that Disney would not want to compete against tough competitions slated for 2015 such as Avengers 2, Ant-Man and Batman vs Superman.
One of the biggest Pirates of the Caribbean 5 rumors floating about is that the film has been named as Dead Men Tell No Tales. It will be competing against several other films slated to be released the same year such as Despicable Me 3 and Fantastic Four 2.
Though Pirates of the Caribbean 5 has been met with several pushbacks, one thing is for such: Johnny Depp will be donning his captain's hat for this fifth installment. He will be joined by Christoph Waltz, Geoffrey Rush, Jack Davenport and Keith Richards with film locations intended to be done at New Orleans and Puerto Rico. Unfortunately, Penelope Cruz, Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley will not be reprising their roles for Pirates of the Caribbean 5. Jerry Bruckheimer is once again the producer and it will be directed by Joachim Ronning and Espen Sanderberg.
