Merrick here...
A month or two ago we ran some pictures of a new ship that'll be appearing in PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: ON STRANGER TIDES (pictures HERE).
At that point, we had no context for what the vessel was or who it belonged to - all we knew was it looked mean and was sitting in a shipyard being readied for filming.
We know know a little more - and have a clearer image of the boat's unpleasant bowsprit (please forgive me if this term is wrong - I'm open to correction in the Talkbacks below).
This is EMBIGGENABLE!

The ship in question - it's called Queen Anne's Revenge and belongs to Ian McShane's Blackbeard character, who we got our first look at last week (HERE).
PIRATES 4 opens next May with a screenplay by returning scripters Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio (shaped from Tim Powers' novel ON STRANGER TIDES, availabe HERE
) and helmed by Rob Marshall.
