Salazar, fleeing from the Devil’s Triangle, happens to lead a syndicate of ghost pirates who target to systematize a “killing spree” for all pirates.

Sparrow will be assisted by his crew composed of Captain Barbosa (Geoffrey Rush), Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) and Joshamee Gibbs (Kevin McNally).

To counter Salazar evil’s forces, Sparrow must also team up with a prodigious astronomer, Carina Smyth (Kaya Scodelario), and Henry (Brenton Thwaites), a young sailor in the Royal Navy, to locate the Trident of Poseidon.

“Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man Tell No Tales” will first grace theaters on May 26. The film’s previous franchises, chiefly “Dead Man’s Chest” and “On Stranger Tides,” have grossed billions of dollars.  Gianna Francesca Catolico
