Yun-fat will portray Captain Sao Feng, a notorious pirate in the second sequel to the 2003 Disney blockbuster, according to Variety.
Pirates of the Caribbean 2 and 3 are both filming back to back.
The second part, tentatively titled "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" should be released on July 2006, while "Pirates 3" are looking for a summer 207 release.
