Previously we’ve seen a first movie trailer, a few promo photos and even a magazine cover … but today we finally get to check out the first official poster released for this Spring’s much-anticipated sequel film Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. This first poster only features Captain Jack Sparrow (played by Johnny Depp) but I suspect we’ll be seeing more character posters soon. Check out this first Pirates poster below.

The official one-sheet poster for Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides has shown up online, courtesy of IGN. The poster features Captain Jack Sparrow in all his glory with a great background scene, including the newly featured mermaids and a burning pirate ship. Is it Captain Jack’s ship? This time, Jack Sparrow is on a mission to find the fountain of youth. He encounters Blackbeard on his journey and quickly discovers Blackbeard is on the same quest along with his daughter. Johnny Depp returns as Jack Sparrow and Penelope Cruz joins the cast as Blackbeard’s daughter, Angelica. The movie opens in 3D, 2D, and IMAX 3D on May 20, 2011.

I like this poster. I never really think of Captain Jack Sparrow as a regal character but he deffo looks regal in this poster. Try as I might, I simply cannot resist the Pirates of the Caribbean films. I never really considered myself a fan of pirate lore but something about these movies are just fun to watch. I am actually really looking forward to On Stranger Tides. I can’t even believe we are just about 2 months away from the film’s release already. What do y’all think of the poster? Do you like?
