Meanwhile, Movie Pilot also notes that the fifth film will see a Turner family reunion. Orlando’s participation in the film was only confirmed during the D23 Expo last August and after filming had already wrapped up.
Bloom’s character will finally see his son Henry, played by another franchise newcomer, Brenton Thwaites. Sadly, Henry’s mother, Knightley’s Elizabeth, won’t be making a return for the fifth film. The 30-year-old actress said that “Pirates of the Caribbean” is a thing of the past for her now. Keira last portrayed the heroine role in “Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End” released in 2007.
It is however expected that ‘Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales” will mention Swann’s whereabouts. Movie News Guide believes that producers would not kill off her character, but her absence will be detailed by her son Henry.
Speaking of new storylines, since Scodelario and Thwaites have been cast, it was heavily noted that the new movie is full of fresh blood. Latinos Health speculates that a romance could be brewing between the astronomer and the next generation of seafaring Turner.
Judging by their character description, they’re already being groomed as the new Will and Elizabeth. Henry already got the legacy appeal and it would probably explain the parallelism with Carina and Elizabeth. If this is how things will actually go, then fans can definitely see the franchise to spawn more movies in the future.
