As if we weren’t already excited enough about the new “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides” flick, they’ve released a new trailer.

The new clip includes plenty of teasers to make fans long for the May 20th, 2011 release date even more ravenously than before.

According to the studio, the plot centers on Captain Jack Sparrow as he crosses paths with a woman from his past and decides to search for the Fountain of Youth. And of course, that’s just the beginning of the adventure.

We’ve just seen the first trailer for Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, and it sets up the basic concept: Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) ends up working with a woman from his past (Penelope Cruz) to find the fountain of youth, with famed pirate Blackbeard (Ian McShane) an an unusual accomplice/rival. Meanwhile Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush) is working with the crown in some measure. Oh, and there are mermaids and zombies.

Now director Rob Marshall, who is new to the series, has given up a few more details.

ComingSoon talked to Mr. Marshall at a Pirates fan event, and he explained,

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.”

And he explains that, as seen in the trailer, Barbossa “has joined a different side… which is really shady.”

Quite a lot of the first act of the original Pirates took place on land as well, so it’s not like the London opening will present a wild departure for the series, but I’m looking forward to seeing how the film’s crew created a period/fantasy version of the city. (Some of it is seen in the trailer, and the carriage chase is nodded to in that edit, too.) And, more than anything else, I’m looking forward to seeing Ian McShane growling his way through the script.

With the first Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides trailer due to hit theaters next week in front of Tron: Legacy, it’s time to crank up the marketing campaign for the sequel that I still can’t quite believe actually exists. We got a look at the first teaser poster a few weeks ago, which showed us pretty much nothing, but now USA Today is premiering the first official image from the film, featuring Jack Sparrow and Penelope Cruz’s pirate temptress Angelica tramping through the swamp.

Reporter Anthony Breznican was on the set to witness it all in action, but beyond some basic plot details didn’t come back with much. Jack, as we know, is on a mission to find the Fountain of Youth on behalf of King George II (Richard Griffifths), and he’s forced to work with Captain Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush) on the mission. Oh, and don’t expect any great epiphanies or character development for Jack Sparrow; as Johnny Depp put it, “Captain Jack is about as fully realized a human as he can be. He’s there. He’s going to stay there. Which is fine.”

Take a look at the new images above, and look for the On Stranger Tides trailer to hit the web December 13. The movie opens May 20 next year.

Lending a sisterly helping hand, Monica Cruz is set to play her pregnant sister Penelope’s body double in “Pirates of the Caribbean 4: On Stranger Tides”.

Looking very much alike, Monica was brought up as the best option to stand in for scenes in the Rob Marshall directed Disney adventure – as Penelope is expecting her first child with husband Javier Bardem.

Scheduled for general release in May 2011, the film finds “Jack Sparrow [Johnny Depp] and Barbossa embark on a quest to find the elusive fountain of youth, only to discover that Blackbeard and his daughter are after it too.”

As for her workload, Monica will be used only for long shots requiring little or no acting – as closeups are reserved for her movie star sister.

Today at Comic-Con, during Disney’s panel, a surprise clip of Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow was shown from the set of Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. I would imagine the clip was shown of Depp in his Sparrow costume. The clip included a greeting from Depp.

The latest installment is about the colorful Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) as he encounters a woman from his past (Penelope Cruz) whilst on an unexpected journey to the illustrious Fountain of Youth.
