Actresses with breast implants have been banned from joining the cast of the next Pirates of the Caribbean film.
Director Rob Marshall last week told Los Angeles casting directors only actresses with real breasts should apply for a role in the fourth film, called Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.
"Beautiful female fit models," the Times Online reported the document as requesting.
"Must be 5ft 7in-5ft 8in, size 4 or 6, no bigger or smaller. Age 18-25. Must have a lean dancer body.
"Must have real breasts. Do not submit if you have implants."
Marshall has warned there will also be a "show and tell day" with actresses expected to pass a test that detects breast implants.
A former casting agent was quoted as saying: "In the last movie there were enhanced breasts to give that 18th-century whoreish look and men were pretty well padded, too, and no one worried."
"But times are changing and the audience can spot false breasts."
Scenes in the new film, which is reportedly being planned as the first in another trilogy, will be shot in Hawaii.
The buxom Penelope Cruz is rumoured to appear alongside Johnny Depp in the film while Keira Knightley — who admitted to having make-up applied to enhance her chest in the first three movies — is absent from the cast.
Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides is scheduled to be released in May 2011.
