User blog comment:Mr. Joshamee Gibbs/Pirates 5's New Release Date Announced !/@comment-1984959-20140723224631/@comment-1984959-20140724051125

As much as I hate repeating myself, I feel I need to. When I said according to official sources, I mean Disney and Bruckheimer, maybe even the director(s). No matter how reliable they can be, relying on movie websites is controversial - they're either right or wrong. But the undeniable fact is that Disney only announced a full release date twice - one in 2015 and one in 2017. The 2016 release was speculation at best, as they were made right after the delay last year - there was never an official 2016 release date. And I don't need to repeat the possibility of another delay, because I'm sure everyone (at this point, given what happened last year) is more hesitant when it comes to P5 news. I'm sure there are those who have been heartbroken twice already, and rather not go with a third... even though I'm personally not having high hopes, for now.

But enough of the past, which is dubious to be honest, we now (hopefully) have release date that will stick to the end.
