Chow Yun-Fat On 'Pirates 3' Role

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End

Acclaimed Hong Kong actor Chow Yun-Fat, who joins the cast of Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, told SCI FI Wire that he had no problem integrating himself into the hit franchise. "It was like [we were] family members, because they respect me a lot, and they welcomed the new character, Captain Sao Feng," Chow said. "I don't feel any gap between the new generation and the old generation. We are working in very good harmony every day."

Chow plays the new character, the pirate lord of Singapore, in the third installment in the hit Disney series. The sequel joins Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) and Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley) as they journey to the end of the world to rescue Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp), who was last seen heading for Davy Jones' locker in the clutches of the Kraken.
