The fifth installment release date may have been pushed back, but May 2017 can’t come soon enough if you’re a Pirates fan… or Sir Paul fan, for that matter! It’s been reported that Paul McCartney will be in his first feature film in over 30 years, making an appearance in the new film “Pirates Of The Carribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales” next year.
Deadline says,
“After wrapping Disney’s Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, directors Joachim Ronning and Espen Sandberg and producer Jerry Bruckheimer have gone back to add an extra big set-piece scene. I’ve heard that it is built around Paul McCartney, who quietly has joined the cast of the film. The picture, the fifth installment of the Pirates Of The Caribbean series, stars Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow, Geoffrey Rush as Barbossa, Javier Bardem as the villainous Captain Salazar, and Brenton Thwaites and Kaya Scodelario play new characters and Orlando Bloom returns as Will Turner. No one was telling me what role McCartney plays. All I was told is that this is not a re-shoot, but rather an extra scene, and that there is plenty of time to add it because the film isn’t being released until May 26, 2017.”
