Bloom, Depp not signed up for 'Pirates' sequels
The main stars from Pirates of the Carribean have yet to sign up for the movie's two sequels.

Both Orlando Bloom and Johnny Depp are keen to reprise their roles but have yet to sign on the dotted line because negotiations over their pay are still ongoing.

Producer Jerry Bruckheimer told MRIB: "We're currently negotiating with the actors to all come back. They all want to come back - it just all comes down to making deals with their agents. They all want raises, which they deserve, it's just how much of a raise."

He added that he was confident that the sequels would be a success with the same director and writing team back on board.

"We've got the same writers that wrote 'Pirates' and they're going to come back and write two and three. They've outlined two and three, they're writing two and we have a deal with Gore Verbinski, who directed the first one, to do two and three."
