Cruz: I would be up for Pirates 5

Penelope Cruz has hinted that she would return for a fifth Pirates Of The Caribbean film.

The Spanish star said she would do "anything" for co-star Johnny Depp and director Rob Marshall, after she worked with them on the fourth instalment, On Stranger Tides.

" I consider them my friends. And I really love them and respect them," she told Collider.

"I loved making that movie. Because Johnny is an incredible human being. He's a very good friend, and he's always been so good to me."

The actress, who welcomed son Leonardo last January with husband Javier Bardem, will never forget how they treated her on set.

"You know, that was a very special time for me because I was pregnant through the whole movie and the way Johnny and Rob Marshall were with me, the way they protected me, the way they took care of me, I will never forget in my life. And I love them for that."

However, Penelope - who next stars in drama Twice Born - admitted she doesn't know what is happening with the fifth film in the hit swash-buckling series.

"I haven't read a script, I haven't heard anything," she said.

Geoffrey Rush has also revealed that he "knows nothing" about the next Pirates Of The Caribbean film, although Johnny and Sam Claflin are interested in reprising their roles.
