nov 27, 2013 - DAILY MAIL EXCLUSIVE:
Keith Richards to return
as Johnny Depp's dad in
next Pirates film
Description:
Keith Richards will once again step into the boots of Captain Teague, MailOnline can exclusively reveal.
The Rolling Stones musician is set to reprise his role as Captain Jack Sparrow's father in Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales.
'After months of talks, Keith has signed on to rejoin Johnny Depp in this fifth Pirates film,' a source tells MailOnline. 'Cameras are scheduled to start rolling in October.'
Also, Christopher Waltz may plan villain Captain Brand, MailOnline has learned.
Keith has appeared in two previous Pirate films: 2007's Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End and 2011's Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.
In 2012 the rock god said the chances of him coming back to the movie franchise were good.
'I spoke to Johnny a couple of weeks ago and he said, "Are you up for another one?"' he offered.
At the time, he was not able to confirm his involvement.
'I can leave it at that because I know no more, but I do have the costume!' he added.
Keith was cast in the Pirates films after Johnny admitted the musician inspired his flamboyant portrayal of Jack in the original Pirates of the Caribbean, which was called The Curse of the Black Pearl and came out in 2003.
