Penelope Cruz As Johnny Depp’s Love Interest In Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides

We didn't know much about her role in the fourth installment of the movie directed by Rob Marshall.

But now, we are here to give you some new details on her character.

Actually, MTV recently spoke with Jerry Bruckheimer, the producer, who revealed that Cruz will play the daughter of Captain Jack Sparrow's nemesis, Blackbeard.

“She plays the daughter of Blackbeard. She's the daughter of the bad guy.” the producer said.

And that's not everything. Bruckheimer promised we'll see a romance between Captain Jack and Penelope's character.

“She brings a lot of humor to it. And the fact that she's so feisty,” he continued, adding that there will be “a little romance between [Johnny Depp‘s] Captain Jack and the character that Penelope plays.”

As we know, Ian McShane will star as Blackbeard, “the nastiest pirate ever,” Bruckheimer described.

Geoffrey Rush, who has played Barbossa in the three previous Pirates movies, earlier told that he  expected to reprise his role in On Stranger Tides, and Bruckheimer confirmed that will indeed be the case.

Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides was written by Terry Rossio and Ted Elliot.

While plot details are being kept secret, it is known the story will pick up where it ended in 2007's Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, with Sparrow's search for the Fountain of Youth.

The fourth installment, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, is going before the cameras this summer in Hawaii, and is scheduled to hit theaters on May 20th, 2011.
