Pirates of the Caribbean 5 International Trailer – Screen Rant – Screen Rant

DisneysPirates of the Caribbeanfranchise outlived the original trilogy which ended with a farewell to series regulars Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley, the original love interests thatsparked off this entire swash-buckling adventure. Despite the epic scope of the trilogy thatspanned the map and even dipped briefly off its edge, there was always a sense that this was merely a segue for Johnny Depps Captain Jack Sparrow.

His adventures were bound to carry on long after the trilogys narrative was over, andPirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tidesdelivered on that front. Itwent on to show Jacks continued adventures, breathing life into the franchise with an impressive worldwide gross of over $1 billion. Its critical performance was less than spectacular however, with many suggesting that Disney scupper the franchise from then on.Six years later however, and the studio islooking to revitalise thePiratesfranchise once more, withPirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales.

An explosive Super Bowl trailer for Pirates 5 was revealed, featuring Javier Bardem as the central antagonist, and teasing the return of several familiar faces, the most exciting of which was Orlando Bloom as the now-undead William Turner. An international trailer has since been released, condensing much of the footage into a shorter format. Take a look at the video above.

The trailer is a full minute shorter than the Super Bowl trailer, and unfortunately doesnt offer any glimpses of new footage. It actually cuts much of the Super Bowl trailers tense build-up, skipping fromwhat seems to be the flashback sequence featuring a young Captain Jack, to quick cuts of a variety of action set pieces: gunfights, chase sequences over rooftops, and naval warfare. The domestic trailer put much more emphasis on Kaya Scodelarios Carina Smyth, as the international trailer only focusses on her during the closing momentscomical throwback to Jacks first encounter with Elizabeth Swan in the firstPiratesmovie.

While it doesnt offer anything new for fans to chew on, the international trailer comes fresh off the back of a striking new poster featuring the chief protagonists lined up, as well as comments from co-director Joachim Rnning suggesting thatPirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Talesmay not actually be the final film in the franchise. This muddies the water a little considering the billing of this movie as thefinal adventure, though the tagline was never confirmed to mean thatDead Men Tell No Taleswill be the closing chapter in the series. It was also unlikely that Disney would so easily let go of a multi-billion dollar franchise likePirates of the Caribbean,not whentheyre currently bankrolling some expensive movies like Avengers: Infinity War.
