Ahoy, McMatey! Paul McCartney shocked fans over the weekend when he revealed on Twitter that he’s got a part in the upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales. “#PiratesLife“ McCartney captioned a poster that shows off his pirate alter ego. In the pic, McCartney appears to be playing cards, but little else is revealed about the character. EW notes that on the Internet Movie Database, McCartney is credited simply as “Jail Guard 2.“ McCartney follows in the footsteps of fellow British rocker Keith Richards, who appeared in the franchise’s third film, subtitled At World’s End. (Johnny Depp has long said that he fashioned Jack Sparrow after Richards.) Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales arrives in theaters on May 26.
