I found this and thought you should know. PIRATE PRODUCERS TO KILL BLOOM? ORLANDO BLOOM's much-loved character in PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN will reportedly be killed off in the fourth instalment of the Disney series, as producers struggle to "cut costs". According to British newspaper reports, Bloom's character WILL TURNER is deemed "not necessary" to the sea-faring saga, although his castmates KEIRA KNIGHTLEY and JOHNNY DEPP are unaffected by the cutbacks. A Disney insider tells British newspaper The Daily Star Sunday, "Pirates of The Caribbean has proved a huge hit and made a fortune for everyone involved. "A huge chunk of that success is on the shoulders of Johnny Depp as CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW. Love interest Keira Knightley, who plays ELIZABETH SWANN is a huge hit. "But producers and directors are now trying to cut costs. Orlando Bloom has suffered as a result. "The script for the fourth Pirates movie is being worked on and all the finances are in place but it was decided Bloom's character and a number of minor roles were not necessary to ensure it would be yet another box office smash for Disney." I pray to god thats not true. They can't kill Will or there be no W/E love

i personally doubt that that is true- i really dont think a fourth one is going to happen, and besides i also doubt they would get rid of Orlando-after all, he is one of the main reasons why a bunch of people love these movies

NO! I flippin hate Disney! Orlando was the only reason i wanted to see Pirates 2 (i saw it before #1). I was watching T.V. then the commercial came on and BAM! There's Orli. And i go "Wow! He's hott!" and i call my friend and go "So... let's see Pirates of the Caribbean tonight" and we did and i got to stare at him for a great 2 1/2 hours. Then later that night we got in trouble w/ the police. it was a greaat night.
but...
a fourth one? Not totally sure how i feel about that. I kinda want it but knida don't. It might ruin the whole thing. I've got mixed feelings. But, he just can't die! Who cares if people don't like his character, he's part of the story. You can't have Elizabeth and Jack w/o Will. You need the entire trio!

This makes me sad. I don't think it's true because they havn't even written a script for Pirates 4 yet. We'll have to wait and see! It'll be torture to sit and wait, but I'm willing to do it!

Hurray we have closure Will Won't die. ;D For several days now rumors have been swirling around the internet about Orlando Bloom's future with the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise. Simply put, several different sources were reporting that in the next movie he'd be killed off to save money. Those rumors were completely untrue.
Reps with Disney have confirmed to us that while they cannot comment on specific plot points of future movies, they can tell us that the rumors of Will Turner's death are completely unfounded. As of right now, Disney plans to have Bloom's character in any and all future Pirates films. That means if they make a fourth one, they plan to have him in it. It also means that they aren't going to kill him off.
Of course they killed Jack Sparrow off in the last one, so I suppose even if they do kill the character it's no great obstacle. They'll still find a way to fit him in. Hold off on the hysteria Will Turner fans, he has a long future with Pirates of the Caribbean.

I know it's horrible, but I had this grin on my face when I read the post. I mean, the news is kinda of perposterous. Why would they even give that kind of news away and no one has confirmed for the fourth movie. It was just plain funny to me I guess.
