'Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides' (4) Extended Super Bowl Trailer - Promo Photos HQ - Plot Reveals

Captain Jack Sparrow is back in 'Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides:

Fourth installment of Disney's 'Pirates' franchise arrives May 20, 2011

Captain Jack's new adventure includes an everything-but-the-kitchen-sink mix of  'mermaids, zombies [and] Blackbeard,' the most dreaded "pirate that all pirates fear," played by noted bad guy Ian McShane.  The woman in Jack Sparrow's ('Shouldn't there be a 'captain' in there somewhere?" wonders Jack) life this time 'round is the enigmatic 'Angelica' (Penelope Cruz), a woman from his past with an agenda all her own. Angelica enlists Jack's help in finding the Fountain of Youth, then forces him to board Blackbeard's ship, and  the story takes off (we hope).

The trailer shows us a peek at the gorgeous Angelica, a woman of action, Blackbeard being his nasty/scary self and Jack being all Jack-like. I'm fairly certain that I saw a cameo by Jack's dad (and Depp's inspiration for his character) played by Keith Richards. If so, yay! There's also a luminously beautiful mermaid (Astrid Berges-Frisbey) and the gallant young missionary (Sam Claflin) who attempts to keep her from harm's way.

Much More After the jump!!

Produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and directed by Rob Marshall, 'Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides' captures the fun, adventure and humor that ignited the hit franchise--this time in Disney Digital 3D. Johnny Depp returns to his iconic role of Captain Jack Sparrow in an action-packed adventure. Crossing paths with the enigmatic Angelica (Penelope Cruz), he's not sure if it's love--or if she's a ruthless con artist who's using him to find the fabled Fountain of Youth. When she forces him aboard the "Queen Anne's Revenge," the ship of the legendary pirate Blackbeard (Ian McShane), Jack finds himself on an unexpected adventure in which he doesn't know whom to fear more: Blackbeard or Angelica, with whom he shares a mysterious past. The international cast includes franchise vets Geoffrey Rush as the vengeful Captain Hector Barbossa and Kevin R. McNally as Captain Jack's longtime comrade Joshamee Gibbs, plus Sam Claflin as a stalwart missionary and Astrid Berges-Frisbey as a mysterious mermaid.

ComingSoon spoke with director Rob Marshall, getting some details about the first 3 acts of the movie:

 

"The whole opening and the first third of the film takes place in London. So we start on dry land and there is an impostor that Jack is looking for. He then escapes from the palace, gets captured by King George and there is a huge carriage chase…[W]e set sail and that is sort of the second act. It’s a new ship, Blackbeard’s ship, the ‘Queen Anne’s Revenge.’ Then Barbossa has a new ship called the ‘Providence.’ The third act is this incredible jungle adventure through caves where they are looking for the Fountain of Youth.”
