The fifth installment of "The Pirates of the Caribbean" film franchise, "Dead Men Tell No Tales", is already in its final stages in production after being delayed for two years. Reports have surfaced that this will be the last movie for the fantasy swashbuckler series, and fingers are pointing at no less than main star Johnny Depp as the cause.

DJ Jackie 'O' Henderson of an Australian breakfast radio show "The Kyle and Jackie O Show" has claimed via Yahoo! Movies UK that crew members had informed her that Depp was a "nightmare" to work with. The actor allegedly was the main cause of shooting delays because he was frequently late - even absent - while filming at the Gold Coast in Australia.

Depp's attendance issues were supposedly due to marital woes he's experiencing with estranged ex-wife, model Amber Heard. The two were constantly fighting The two have caused a stir earlier in May when Heard filed a restraining order against the award-winning actor, citing that Depp had been physically and verbally abusive towards her throughout the entirety of their relationship, CNN reports.

In retaliation, Depp's lawyers claim that Heard made up the stories on the abuse and was just hoping to gain financial leverage through spousal support. Depp and Heard's tumultuous divorce came to an end on Aug. 16, 2016, with the model receiving $7 million. She has reportedly claimed that she will donate all of it to charity, splitting the cash between foundations for sick children and violence-against-women support groups.

Even with the supposed delays in filming, "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales" has gotten a release date for May 26, 2017, as reported by Jobs & Hire. The new chapter will center around Depp's character, Captain Jack Sparrow, as he combats an old nemesis, Capitan Salazar, who has escaped from the Devil's Triangle along with his crew of ghost pirates.
