We’ve already seen what feels like tons upon tons of candid shots of our swashbuckling mateys in the latest Disney pirate sequel, PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: ON STRANGER TIDES. But today, we’re finally getting a look at the first two official pics from the film.
Courtesy of USA TODAY, these latest images primarily depict our “gay” hero Captain Jack Sparrow, as well as sexy newcomer Penelope Cruz playing the role of ‘Angelica’, a character that co-writer Terry Rossio describes to USA TODAY as truly being Sparrow’s match: “Jack has perhaps not only met his equal, but also found that she is a kindred spirit who is a con artist at heart as well. She’s not only a romantic interest, but an equal and effective adversary.”
Rossio also discloses how ON STRANGER TIDES fits in with the previous three films in the franchise: “It’s a completely different beast, the three previous films are a trilogy, with an intricate, interwoven tapestry of characters. I would call this a stand-alone type of story.”
