The Daily Mail are saying that Christoph Waltz has shown some interest in playing the villain, one Captain Brand, in the next Pirates of the Caribbean film, Dead Men Tell No Tales.
Did I get the title right? They all sound the same to me.
The rumor has spread, but we have to say Bleeding Cool sum this one up quite well.
“I know what their source is on this, and I can tell you, the Waltz part is nothing like a done deal. Indeed, I’d call their story hearsay.”
The site continue to deliver more news on the next Pirates movie.
“The plot details they offer are far more solid, however. Jack and his team are in search of The Trident, which Keith [Richards'] Teague holds valuable information to. The villain this time is Captain Brand… [he] wants the Trident so he can get his revenge on Jack.”
“Brand believes Jack turned his brother Eric into a pirate, which led to his death…Also in Dead Men Tell No Tales, Jack becomes enchanted by Barbosa’s daughter, Carina Smyth. She’s a beautiful woman in her late 30s who is called a witch by some but is really an adept astronomer.”
Rebecca Hall has been linked with the movie in the role of Carina. Whilst this is yet to be confirmed, it provides an aesthetic blueprint of how the studio see the character developing.
And finally, Bleeding Cool report on the evolution of the rumored “Naked Witch” character.
“The conception of the “naked witch” character seems to have evolved and they’re now thinking “exotic.” That’s some kind of ethnic categorization in studio and casting speak. It probably refers to a degree of brownness in the skin, and I think it’s certain to mean “not white.”
Production on this film is set to take place next year for a Summer 2015 release.
