London
(ANI):
English
comedian
Russell
Brand
is
in
talks
for
a
five-million-pound
role
in
the
next
Pirates
of
The
Caribbean
movie,
as
Captain
Jack
Sparrow's
brother.
Captain
Jack
Sparrow
is
a
character
played
by
American
actor
Johnny
Depp,
and
in
the
fourth
instalment,
the
swashbuckling
pirate
will
also
have
a
younger
brother,
Jonathan.
If
the
deal
goes
through,
Brand,
33,
will
automatically
end
up
on
the
Hollywood
A-list,
and
that
too
in
less
than
a
week
after
resigning
from
his
Radio
2
show
over
the
Andrew
Sachs
phone
row
involving
him
and
Jonathan
Ross.
"There
couldn't
be
a
role
more
perfectly
suited.
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," the
Sun
quoted
a
source
as
saying.
"Russell
joining
the
Sparrows
alongside
Johnny
and
Keith
Richards
as
their
dad
will
complete
the
ultimate
on-screen
pirate
family,"
the
source
added.
