Russell Brand has been "dressing as a pirate every day" to get into character for the new "Pirates of the Caribbean" film.
The British comic star - who has previously starred in movies including "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" and the upcoming "Bedtime Stories" - is doing everything he can to secure the part of Johnny Depp's on-screen brother in the fourth film in the franchise.
Speaking about the role, Russell is quoted as saying: "That would be really exciting if that does happen. I hope it does. There has been some talk about it but I think it's in its very early days. But I'm practicing by dressing as a pirate every day - just in case!"
It was recently revealed that Johnny will earn million for appearing as Captain Jack Sparrow in the new movie, the largest upfront payment in film history.
