in Events, Movies, The Walt Disney Company

Orlando Bloom as Will Turner, dressed in full pirate costume, stands aboard a ship’s deck at the D23 Expo 2015, gripping a rope and gazing out heroically—evoking his legendary Pirates of the Caribbean 5 role for fans and attendees of Disney’s ultimate fan event.

Today at the D23 Expo 2015 Walt Disney Studios panel it was announced that Orlando Bloom will reprise his role as the swashbuckling Will Turner for the fifth installment Pirates of the Caribbean movies, Dead Men Tell No Tales. Orlando Bloom hasn’t been seen in a Pirates movie since 2007’s Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End.

Johnny Depp appeared as Captain Jack Sparrow – a reprise of his own, having done the same stunt at the first D23 Expo in 2009.

The movie will premiere July 7, 2017.
