Your guess is as good as mine when wondering how the next will Pirates of the Caribbean will turn out, especially after this bit of news just winged its way to my email’s inbox!

First Keira Knightly’s ship set sail and now Orlando Bloom has announced he’s off too… Off to where we’re not quite sure, as this would appear to be not one of the smartest career moves he’s made.

Bloom said: “I think Will is sort of swimming around with the fish at the bottom of the ocean. I had a great time making those movies. I just really wanted to do different things.”

The heartthrob star also admitted he couldn’t wait to see the latest Pirates sequel, being directed by Rob Marshall: “I think it’s going to be great. Whatever Johnny does, I think it’s fantastic. I think he’s (Marshall) an amazing director. I think it will be a very interesting fit, because Johnny is musical anyway and I’m sure that something really beautiful will come out of it.”

So the search is on to find Johnny Depp a new right hand man, who’ll be the next Will Turner? The rumors swirling in Tinseltown say that an unknown actor by the name of Sam Claflin and Jeremy Irons Max are both in the frame to climb into Orlando’s pants.

I’m sure the casting directors have total eye candy on their minds first when considering their choices, sadly talent always seems to take a back seat in Hollywood these days. Nevertheless, the movie won’t be the same without Bloomy and that’s for certain!
