Filming for “Pirates of the Caribbean” has been delayed by almost a month following the hand injury to Johnny Depp he sustained in the first week of March but was not related at all to the shooting of the movie. He flew back to the US to undergo a minor surgery in his hand.
In addition to Johnny Depp, the movie also stars Javier Bardem and Brenton Thwaites as well as Espen Sandberg and Joachim Ronning.
