14 Mar
Summary
- Jacob Elordi had an uncredited extra role in Pirates of the Caribbean.
- He was 17 when he filmed his small part in the 2017 movie.
- Elordi is now an Oscar nominee, known for The Kissing Booth and Priscilla.

Jacob Elordi, now an Oscar nominee, initially entered the Hollywood scene with an uncredited extra role in "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales." He was only 17 years old during the filming of this minor part in 2017, coinciding with his move from Brisbane, Australia, to Los Angeles to pursue acting.
His character briefly appeared during an execution scene, though Elordi himself has clarified he was simply "in the background" and unbilled. This early experience was described by Elordi as one of the best things he had ever done.
