Disney released some plot details as Johnny Depp returns as Jack Sparrow for the upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean film, On Stranger Tides.
Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides has begun production and will be released on May 20, 2011 and in 3D, Walt Disney Pictures said on Monday, adding that Johnny Depp is reprising his role as Captain Jack Sparrow and Geoffrey Rush returns as Captain Hector Barbossa.
However, Orlando Bloom, who played pirate Will Turner in the previous three movies, has not signed on for the fourth installment.
Oscar-winner Penelope Cruz will play Sparrow’s love interest and Ian McShane of Deadwood fame stars as the pirate Blackbeard. The movie also stars Kevin R. McNally as Sparrow’s comrade Joshamee Gibbs and Sam Claflin as a “stalwart missionary”.
“In this action-packed tale of truth, betrayal, youth and demise, Captain Jack Sparrow crosses paths with a woman from his past, and he’92s not sure if it’92s love’97or if she’92s a ruthless con artist who’92s using him to find the fabled Fountain of Youth,” Walt Disney Pictures said in its statement.
“When she forces him aboard the Queen Anne’92s Revenge, the ship of the formidable pirate Blackbeard, Jack finds himself on an unexpected adventure in which he doesn’92t know who to fear more – Blackbeard or the woman from his past,” it said.
Disney had said in April that French actress Astrid Berges-Frisbey will play a mermaid in the Jerry Bruckheimer Films and Walt Disney Pictures production.
Here is our first look at the Queen Anne’92s Revenge, the ship Blackbeard captained. It is in dry dock at Point Barber, Hawaii for Pirates of the Caribbean 4: On Stranger Tides.

Insider news!!!
Pirates has already begun. Johnny was at Disney studios a week ago before returning to Venice to begin preparations on Pirates. The cast has been completed and only hiring some more extras remain. But the sets are already being built, Johnny’s new sword has been made and his new costume is almost completed!! Johnny’s costume will have at least three new pieces and or changes included and he insists on using his old boots that he shot in and already owns..(of course they will have extra).
The shooting will begin promptly after the Tourist reshoots are finished this next week (and Cannes maybe). We do not have an exact date on Johnny’s first day of shooting but the shooting schedule right now looks as if they will go from LA to Hawaii first and then to the UK. The whole shoot is scheduled to only last two months since the financial cutbacks only allow for half the time.
Filming for POTC 4 On Stranger Tides is starting very soon. Johnny was at Disney studios for two days last week for his fittings and meetings there. The black pearl left its harbor two weeks ago and set sail, for filming to begin. Johnny is still in Los Angeles but is thought to be gone very soon to begin filming.
Also some extra information-
Marty will not be in this POTC movie. Most of the crew is not going to be there. The script is going to be very different from anything they have done before.
Filming time will be cut in half to reach the release and post production dates that are set.
Parts of the movie will be filmed in Hawaii.
