The fifth installment in the pirate adventure franchise of Disney, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, is now getting an earlier release date. This would be coming from another Disney film being bumped also to a later date.
After reports of update regarding the upcoming adventure film of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, another relevant news surfaced as they moved the release date of the film. According to The Blemish, Johnny Depp-filled franchise is being moved forward to an earlier release date. The Pirates of the Caribbean 5 is now going to be on worldwide cinemas on May 26, 2017 which might be a good news to fans of the franchise. The film will star actors backed for their roles who are Johnny Depp, Geoffrey Rush and Orlando Bloom while getting the aid of Javier Bardem as the antagonist in the anticipated film.
More to this, news also surfaced that the film getting a 6 week earlier premiere is due to another Disney film being delayed. In the reports of Slash Film, they indicated that the Pirates of the Caribbean 5 is expected really on July 7, 2017 but moved forward due to the Star Wars Episode 8. The Star Wars Episode 8 has been reported to have an unexpected leap from May to December 15, 2017. This is attributed to the success of Star Wars: The Force Awakens release on the month of December. Also, they've deduced that this is a move by Disney since May 26, 2017 is the Memorial Day and wouldn't just let any other films have the weekend release.
Futhermore, Film School Rejects wrote an article detailing that the anticipated pirate adventure film is merely a consolation for the Star Wars fans. According to them, putting the Pirates of the Caribbean film release date on the initial date of Star Wars: Episode 8 wasn't just a strategic move but rather a tried substitute for the latter. The article also detailed how the first three Pirates of the Caribbean movies is a rip-off of the Star Wars franchise.
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales is the upcoming fifth pirate adventure film of Disney starring Johnny Depp as the lead character. The film was moved 6 weeks earlier to the initial release date set by the studio. This was attributed to the delaying of release of Star Wars: Episode 8 and a tactical transfer since May 26 is Memorial Day. The film is now scheduled for May 26, 2017.
