Called the much cooler Dead Men Tell No Tales in the U.S., Pirates of the Caribbean: Salazar’s Revenge hits our screens in May, and while our first look a few months back focused solely on Javier Bardem’s villainous ghost pirate Salazar, this new Super Bowl spot really clues us in on what this fifth installment has in store for us. Namely ghost ships, more supernatural shenanigans than you can shake a stick at (the ghost priest walking on water is an awesome sight to behold), and, of course, Captain Jack Sparrow (we even get a brief look at Orlando Bloom a the 1:03 minute mark).
This may be just me, but I can a vibe from this that skews much closer to the original movie in terms of story and visuals, so those bemoaning the state of the sequels may be in for a treat here.
Released: 26th May
Synopsis: Johnny Depp returns to the big screen as the iconic, swashbuckling anti-hero Jack Sparrow in the all-new “Pirates of the Caribbean: Salazar's Revenge.” The rip-roaring adventure finds down-on-his-luck Captain Jack feeling the winds of ill-fortune blowing strongly his way when deadly ghost sailors, led by the terrifying Captain Salazar (Javier Bardem), escape from the Devil's Triangle bent on killing every pirate at sea—notably Jack. Jack's only hope of survival lies in the legendary Trident of Poseidon, but to find it he must forge an uneasy alliance with Carina Smyth (Kaya Scodelario), a brilliant and beautiful astronomer, and Henry (Brenton Thwaites), a headstrong young sailor in the Royal Navy. At the helm of the Dying Gull, his pitifully small and shabby ship, Captain Jack seeks not only to reverse his recent spate of ill fortune, but to save his very life from the most formidable and malicious foe he has ever faced.
