"Pirates of the Carribean: Dead Men Tell No Tales" muddy plot is getting clearer as it has been revealed that Captain Jack's new comrade in arriving at his mission of chasing the ghost pirates that have escaped the Bermuda Triangle is a British soldier whose name is Henry.

Henry (played by Brenton Thwaites) is said to replace the role of Will Turner (Orlando Bloom's character) in Captain Jack's missions. Although it turns out that Henry might have a little mission of his own too as he is looking for his lost father in the seas which could possibly be Will Turner as well.

Take note that at the end of "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End," Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley) had a young boy. He could have grown up as Henry.

Will they ever meet?

Taking account from Orlando Bloom's statement when he spoke with IGN, the story might include their family reunion. He said, "I'm not entirely sure that [I'll be back] just yet, but there are talks. Basically they want to reboot the whole franchise, I think, and do something with me and the relationship with my son."

On the side note, it has already been made known that Kaya Scodelario who featured in "The Maze Runner" will join the cast as the female lead but on how she will fit in the story, nobody outside the writing and production staff has slipped a word to the public yet.

To keep the fans on their toes for the fifth Pirates movie, Director Jerry Bruckheimer previously tweeted a photo of Johnny Depp tied around a tall post on April 22 with the caption "Captain Jack is back and we're not letting him go."

With the success of the "Pirates of the Carribean" franchise with its last installment "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" earning a whopping $1.05 billion worldwide in theaters back in 2011, it is only logical business-wise that Walt Disney will add a follow-up to the blockbuster movie series.

Finding ways to make the production cost-effective as much as possible, the setting - as already known - takes place in Australia.

Captain Jack Sparrow is ready to turn up the female crowd's ideal men again as "Pirates of the Carribean: Dead Men Tell No Tales" hits global theaters on July 7, 2017.
