First Look at Blackbeard's Flag in PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: ON STRANGER TIDES

Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides producer Jerry Bruckheimer has released a new image from the highly anticipated sequel via Twitter and although no actors are in the shot, the image casts a haunting preview of what to expect May, 2011.

Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) crosses paths with a woman from his past (Penelope Cruz), and 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 formidable pirate Blackbeard (Ian McShane), Jack finds himself on an unexpected adventure in which he doesn’t know who to fear more: Blackbeard or the woman from his past.

Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides is scheduled for 2D and 3D release in May 2011. The film is directed by Rob Marshall and stars Johnny Depp, Penelope Cruz, Ian McShane, Geoffrey Rush, Kevin McNally, Astrid Bergès-Frisbey, Sam Claflin, Stephen Graham, Yuki Matsuzaki and Gemma Ward.
