10 Movie & TV Spoilers We Didn’t Know Last Week (16th Oct)

6. Javier Bardem Might Be The Next Pirates Of The Caribbean Villain

If there's one thing that Javier Bardem is good at, it's playing villains. Having proven such a thing in the likes of movies such as No Country For Old Men and Skyfall, it's been reported that the talented actor could find himself setting sail for the high seas as the bad guy in the upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean 5, which will also see Johnny Depp reprising his infamous role as swashbuckling hero Jack Sparrow. Pre-production on Pirates 5 has already begun (in case you're wondering), so expect confirmation of this little story in the coming weeks. Penelope Cruz, whose significant happens to be Mr. Bardem, featured in the last Pirates of the Caribbean movie, of course, so hopefully she'll give him the go ahead on such a project. We'd certainly love to see a Pirates movie with Anton Chigurh poised as the sickly bad guy.
