Russell Brand is rumoured to be in talks to star in the next Pirates of the Caribbean installment, as Captain Jack Sparrow’s brother.
The big-haired comedian would play Johnny Depp’s character’s younger brother in a deal worth a whopping £5million.
Russell, who is currently working in Los Angeles, has formed a close relationship with Disney.
‘There couldn’t be a role more perfecting suited,’ said a source to The Sun.
‘There’s a lot of Jack Sparrow in his mannerisms and behaviour. Depp’s accent isn’t a million miles away from Russell’s either.’
