‘Pirates of the Caribbean 5’ Featurette Confirms Will Turner’s Son

If you were wondering about what was so important that it could bring Orlando Bloom’s Will Turner back from Davey Jones Locker, we’ve not got confirmation. The new featurette doesn’t talk about it, but they do list actor Brenton Thwaites as Henry Turner for the first time. On IMDB, the character is still listed as just Henry.

Beyond that little tidbit, the bulk of the video is mostly just people talking about how they’ve given the franchise new life and a fresh feel. Essentially, they want people who grew tired of Jack Sparrow and his antics to come back and give the movies another chance. In fact, they want you to forget about Jack’s past shenanigans so much that Johnny Depp isn’t even in the video.

Thrust into an all-new adventure, a down-on-his-luck Captain Jack Sparrow finds the winds of ill-fortune blowing even more strongly when deadly ghost pirates led by his old nemesis, the terrifying Captain Salazar (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.
