You’re going to have to squint really hard and play ‘Where’s Waldo?’ to find him, but we’re pretty sureJohnny Deppis dressed asCapt. Jack Sparrowsomewhere in a new cast and crew photo that has just arrived from thePirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Talesset. Today is National Talk Like a Pirate Day. And of course, Walt Disney Pictures wasn’t going to let the holiday go by without sharing a little something from their new movie. Sure, a trailer isn’t ready yet, and probably won’t be until sometime in 2016. This fifth chapter in the popular franchise doesn’t even open until 2017. But we do get this cool souvenir, which is made to look like it came from a photo op at Disneyland.
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No TalesproducerJerry Bruckheimershared this photo of the cast and crew on his officialTwitter. We’re not sure who all is included in the photo, but surely we’re looking at some of the main cast alongside the hard working men and woman who make shooting possible. Is this our first look atOrlando Bloomreprising his role as Will Turner? Could be. We’re really not sure.
Thrust into an all-new adventure, a down-on-his-luckCaptain Jack Sparrowfinds the winds of ill-fortune blowing even more strongly when deadly ghost pirates led by his old nemesis, the terrifying Captain Salazar (Javier Bardem), escape from the Devil’s Triangle, determined to kill every pirate at sea…Including him. Captain Jack’s only hope of survival lies in seeking out the legendary Trident of Poseidon, a powerful artifact that bestows upon its possessor total control over the seas. Production on thisaction-adventurestarted in Australia back in February, with principal photography wrapping in July. So, this photo is probably a little dated.

Orlando Bloom’s return as Will Turner was first rumored back in September 2014, but was officially confirmed during D23 this past August. He starred as Will Turner in the first three adventures, 2003’sPirates of The Caribbean: The Curse of The Black Pearl, 2006’sPirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chestand 2007’sPirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End. He did not come back for the 2011 sequelPirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. It was also revealed in August thatKaya Scodelario’s character is named Carina Smyth, andBrenton Thwaites' character is named Henry. They’re both possibly included here. You’ll need to get your trusty Pirate magnifying glass out to see for sure. While we were holding out for some new footage on this Pirates' holiday, I guess we’ll have to settle for this photo instead.
