BackstageOL’s Dave Morales sat down with Geoffrey Rush in this backstage interview to talk about the upcoming sequel Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales.

In the interview, Rush shared the story behind the Walt Disney World attraction based on the film, and what he likes most about playing his character, Captain Hector Barbossa.

The film’s synopsis:

Thrust into an all-new adventure, a down-on-his-luck Capt. Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) feels the winds of ill-fortune blowing even more strongly when deadly ghost sailors led by his old nemesis, the evil Capt. Salazar (Javier Bardem), escape from the Devil’s Triangle. Jack’s only hope of survival lies in seeking out the legendary Trident of Poseidon, but to find it, he must forge an uneasy alliance with a brilliant and beautiful astronomer and a headstrong young man in the British navy.

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales hits theaters May 26th. For more from Rush, check out the full interview below!
