Keith Richards may have bust his bonce after falling from a coconut tree – but the old trouper’s still going to make a cameo appearance in the new Pirates Of The Caribbean film.
The ageing Rolling Stones guitarist raised fears for his health after suffering the fall in April, but the hardy rocker is jumping back onto his band’s current world tour and completing a promise to star in the latest instalment of the Disney film.
Richards agreed to appear in the third Pirates film after lead star Johnny Depp based his character Jack Sparrow on him.
Tom Hollander, who plays Lord Cutler Beckett, confirms, “We were all worried when we heard about Keith's fall, but we've just heard that he's still going to appear in the film.
"I'm really looking forward to meeting him. I've been in the same room as him before, but sadly at opposite ends."
