Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell no Tales

Based On “Pirates of the Caribbean”

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales (released in some territories as Pirates of the Caribbean: Salazar's Revenge) is a 2017 American swashbuckler fantasy film directed by Joachim Rønning and Espen Sandberg, and written by Jeff Nathanson. It is the fifth and latest installment in the Pirates of the Caribbean film series, following On Stranger Tides (2011), and features an ensemble cast including Johnny Depp, Javier Bardem, Geoffrey Rush, Brenton Thwaites, Kaya Scodelario, and Kevin McNally. The film follows a search for the Trident of Poseidon by a down-on-his-luck Captain Jack Sparrow pursued by Captain Armando Salazar and a crew of deadly ghosts who have escaped from the Devil's Triangle, determined to kill every pirate at sea and take revenge on Sparrow. Development of the film started shortly before the previous film was released in May 2011, with Rossio writing the initial script, and Depp being involved in the writing process.
