Reports claim that Orlando Bloom is apparently so smitten with fiance Miranda Kerr that he's turned down a role in POTC 4!

A source told NOTW, "Orlando loved the films but thinks it's time to bow out because they tied up nicely for his character Will Turner. The producers are ok with that because they want to concentrate on the new adventures of Johnny Depp's Captain Jack Sparrow."

And apparently Orly would rather concentrate on walking down the aisle than walking the plank.

After reportedly popping the question to his VS Angel in May, X17online spotted the pair shopping for multi-million dollar houses in Malibu. But beachfront love nests don't come cheap. Even with all her underwear modeling money, would Orlando really turn down the chance to help pay off a 13 million dollar pricetag?

Calls to his publicist were not immediately returned.

UPDATE: As we suspected, this report is bogus. His rep tells X17online, "There is no script for Pirates 4 and he would never turn down a role in a film for the reasons reported."
