Scenes without Depp's character Captain Jack Sparrow are being shot while the actor undergoes surgery on his hand.
It's not clear when the 51-year-old will resume filming, although a spokesperson for Disney has told the publication that the film's release date of July 7, 2017 remains unchanged.
The fifth installment of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise is being shot entirely at Village Roadshow Studios and on locations around Queensland until the summer.
Espen Sandberg and Joachim Rønning are directing the film, which features Brenton Thwaites and Kaya Scodelario and Javier Bardem among its cast.
