Mark your calendars because on May 20th, we’re returning to the high seas and we’re going in 3D.

USA Today has delivered some fantastic insight into Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. Sure, there will be more of the same humor and action, but the film also promises to be a deeper dive into the beloved character of Captain Jack Sparrow.

Along the road to the Fountain of Youth, Sparrow will meet a friendly mermaid (Astrid Berges-Frisbey) and be tempted by a wicked former flame (Penelope Cruz) and her sadistic father, Blackbeard (Ian McShane) — but there will be no Will and Elizabeth (Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley).

That’s not suggest that Sparrow is a deeper man than he’s previously shown. “Captain Jack is about as fully realized a human as he can be,” Depp said. “He’s there. He’s going to stay there. Which is fine.” And of Sparrow’s relationship with Cruz’s Angelica, he warns, “We have our bouts in the film, but there’s also this residue of what might have been. It’s a kind of love-hate thing. There’s a little flavor of both.”

But a picture is worth a gazillion words. So here are some teaser images from The Collider to sate your thirst for Pirates 4. Do check out some behind the scenes video while you’re here. Otherwise we might make you walk to plank!
