Mackenzie Crook will not be returning to Pirates of the Caribbean.

He follows Keira Knightley and Orlando Bloom out of the franchise as a fourth movie is in the works.

Knightley distanced herself from the project back in 2008 and Bloom claimed he would be reprising the role of Will Turner only last month.

In an interview with The Independent the actor said: "They haven't asked me. But actually I don't mind that at all.

"I'm a fan of the first one especially and I think the trilogy we've made is great. I'd almost like them to leave it there.

"If people want more, then, sure, give them more if you can keep the standard. Quite possibly they do and quite possibly they can, so that's great. But my pirating days are over."

However Johnny Depp will return as Captain Jack Sparrow and there were rumours that Geoffrey Rush would also be returning as Captain Barbossa.

Filming was expected to get underway sometime this year.
