There is going to be delayed in the production of the upcoming film "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales," following actor Johnny Depp's hand injury.
The production is currently challenged by script concerns, scheduling matters, and the recent injury to actor Johnny Depp's hand, according to Cinema Blend.
After an off-set accident that took place last early part of March, Depp had to have a pin insertion procedure involving his little finger, as per The Hollywood Reporter. The actor went back to the United States last March 10 for a hand surgery. According to the producers, the incident will put a "minimal impact" to the shoot; however, the production has to adjust for four more weeks after the surgical procedure and can continue depending on Depp's recovery. This entails that less than fifty percent of the present crew has to wait for a moment until the filming resumes. Moreover, the production crew and staffs is reported to have fourteen weeks remaining for filming, which is assumed to resume on Apr. 15.
The plot of the upcoming film centers on Captain Sparrow's quest in finding the legendary Trident of Poseidon, which gives him full governance over the seas, as per Cinema Blend. In addition, the quest includes their survival from Captain Salazar, who plans to terminate his rival pirates.
