“Capuchin monkeys naturally live in large family groups in the rainforests of South and Central America and have complex physical and psychological needs,” she said With a bit of luck and favorable winds, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales should still hit its Jrelease date, even with the delays and Johnny Depp’s injured finger.The Humane Society International Australia, the Captive Animals Protection Society and Wild Futures have appealed for the monkey transfer to be halted as they claim that the monkeys’ health will be harmed and that the appearance of monkeys in films encourages the illegal wildlife trade.Ĭampaigns officer at Wild Futures, Cordelia Britton, believes that the exploitation of animals is not necessary for the film. Geoffrey Rush reprises his role as Barbosa, Stephen Graham is back as Scrum, and the series welcomes newcomers Kaya Scodelario ( The Maze Runner) and Brenton Twaites ( Maleficent) to the party. That might be a wee bit too much power for a scoundrel like Jack to have in his hands, but we’ll have to wait and see about that. Jack’s only hope of survival is to find the mythical Trident of Poseidon, which gives whoever wields it total control over the seas.
His old enemy-he certainly has no shortage of those-the vicious Captain Salazar (Javier Bardem), escapes from the Devil’s Triangle and embarks on a mission to kill every rival pirate out there, and probably some other folks who get in his way, as well.
But don’t worry for them too much, as there are still 14 more weeks of shooting scheduled, so hopefully they’ll be able to make up any lost income over that span.ĭirected by Espen Sandberg and Joachim Rønning ( Kon-Tiki), the latest installment of the billion-dollar-plus franchise finds a down-on-his-luck Jack embarking on a fresh, new adventure. Dead Men Tell No Tales is the biggest film production ever mounted in Australia, and now more than half of the 400 person crew toiling away on the Gold Coast has been told that there is no more work until Depp returns.
It’s hard to work around that sort of ubiquity. That makes sense considering his character, the scurvy dog Captain Jack Sparrow, is in damn near every scene in the entire franchise. Johnny Depp departed on March 10, and for a while they kept filming in his absence, but now it looks like they’ve exhausted most of what they can do without him around. The break is now being extended to four weeks. Initially, the official word from production was that the wound would only have "minimal impact" on filming, and that the production would be delayed no more than two weeks. He injured his finger in an off-set incident early in March and had to have a pin inserted, which sounds unpleasant. According to The Hollywood Reporter, production has been halted until April 15 after Depp left to return to the U.S.
