We’re covering The Geek Media Expo being held in Nashville this weekend, and Pirates of the Caribbean and Once Upon a Time star Lee Arenberg has confirmed that he will be reprising his role as Pintel, one-half of everyone’s favorite Pirate comic relief duo.

While we’ve assumed that the majority of the Pirates cast would be coming back for the 5th film, titled Dead Men Tell No Tales, this is the first real confirmation we’ve heard about anyone starring in the film besides Captain Jack himself, Johnny Depp.

We’ll have more on this breaking story, including an interview with Arenberg, coming soon.
