“Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales” is set to hit theaters next year, and the film will reunite Orlando Bloom’s Will Turner with Johnny Depp’s Jack Sparrow. Now it looks like another familiar face will be returning to the franchise, as TMZ’s TooFab reports that Keira Knightley will be reprising her role as Elizabeth Swann.
Keira Knightley starred as Elizabeth Swann in the first three films, but her character didn’t appear in “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.” According to TooFab, Keira Knightly has already filmed her scenes for “Dead Men Tell No Tales.”
Her role is being described as a small cameo, and she will reportedly be making an appearance during the credits. Although her role is small, it apparently sets her up for a potentially larger role in the franchise’s sixth film.
“Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales” is set to hit theaters on May 26, 2017.
Thrust into an all-new adventure, a down-on-his-luck Capt. Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) finds the winds of ill-fortune blowing even more strongly when deadly ghost pirates led by his old nemesis, the terrifying Capt. Salazar, escape from the Devil’s Triangle, determined to kill every pirate at sea including him. Capt. Jack’s only hope of survival lies in seeking out the legendary Trident of Poseidon, a powerful artifact that bestows upon its possessor total control over the seas.
