"Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales" has unveiled its fourth trailer. This time, it reveals new details about the exciting new adventure in the high seas and Armando Salazar's plan to exact revenge on Captain Jack Sparrow. Here's everything we know so far about "Pirates of the Caribbean 5."
Who's Armando Salazar?
In the new "Pirates of the Caribbean 5" trailer, it is revealed that a younger captain Jack Sparrow caused the curse that now haunts Javier Bardem's Armando Salazar. He then swore to have his revenge and said, "Pirates had infected the seas for generation, so I vowed to eliminate them all."
Salazar is the captain of the Devil's Triangle and he commands a ghost army who could not be killed by weapons. That alone presents a huge problem for Jack Sparrow and co.
Henry Turner and Carina Smyth
"Pirates of the Caribbean 5" brings two new young characters to the story. Brenton Thwaites' Henry is the son of Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) and Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley).
"I play a guy called Henry who is a soldier in the Royal Navy. At the beginning of the film, he is locked up by his own men for trying to warn them of an evil coming their way," Thwaites said in an interview with Da Man magazine (via Just Jared).
"No one believes him except for a girl called Carina Smyth, played by Kaya Scodelario, who helps him escape. Together they realize they are actually after the same treasure and can help each other get there," he added.
Scodelario's Carina is rumored to be the daughter of Captain Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush), who ran the Black Pearl in the first "Pirates" movie. Reports also suggested that Henry and Carina are being groomed to become the main leads in future "Pirates" films.
Other characters
"Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales" will bring together new and old characters from the franchise. Rush is said to reprise his role as Captain Barbossa in the upcoming film.
There are also reports of Beatles member Paul McCartney making a cameo appearance in the movie, although his character was not revealed.
According to Movie Pilot, one new and unique aspect of the fifth film is that it will feature ghost sharks!
Release date
"Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales" will hit theaters on May 26.
