Go behind the scenes of the latest installment in Disney's popular "Pirates of the Caribbean" film franchise.

In this new featurette for "POTC: Dead Men Tell No Tales," producer Jerry Bruckheimer and directors Joachim Ronning and Espen Sandberg (of the Oscar-nominated Norwegian film "Kon-Tiki") offer their insight as they give fans a quick peek at the making of the fifth "Pirates" film, which sees the return of Johnny Depp's iconic swashbuckling anti-hero Captain Jack Sparrow.

The clip also reveals, for the first time ever, the full name of Aussie actor Brenton Thwaites' young sailor character: "Henry Turner." Which seemingly confirms a fan theory that Thwaites is playing the son of Orlando Bloom's Will Turner and Keira Knightley's Elizabeth Swann. Certainly, the resemblance is there.

And though we have yet to see any real footage of him (other than a quick shot in the Superbowl trailer), Bloom is expected to appear in the upcoming sequel, in which Geoffrey Rush also returns as Pirate Captain Barbossa, but only to play second fiddle to the movie's main villain, Ghost Spanish Captain Salazar, played by Oscar-winner Javier Bardem.

Also starring "The Maze Runner" actress Kaya Scodelario as a scrappy astronomer named Carina Smyth, "POTC: Dead Men Tell No Tales" will open in theaters on May 26th.
