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.
