The countdown to the eagerly-awaited fourth Pirates Of The Caribbean film has begun after Johnny Depp started filming in Hawaii.
The 47-year-old was back in his battered leathers, boots, bandanna and dreadlocked wig to reprise his role as Captain Jack Sparrow in On Stranger Tides.
The actor was reportedly offered a $50million salary to reprise his role as the the seafaring hero for a fourth time.
Notably absent from the third sequel is Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley as Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann.
Fans will know Bloom's character Will is trapped sailing the Netherworld after being resurrected following his fatal fight with Davy Jones (Bill Nighy) in the last movie At World's End.
Instead, audiences will be treated to another stunning female co-star for Depp - Spanish actress Penelope Cruz, 36.
The film will be something of a reunion for Cruz and Depp, who played lovers in 2001 film Blow.
Also providing eye candy for male audiences is Australian supermodel Gemma Ward, 22, as a mermaid.
Another new addition to the cast is English actor Ian McShane, who will play 18th century pirate Blackbeard.
Blackbeard was a real-life pirate from Bristol, whose real name was Edward Teach.
The pirate was greatly feared by seamen at the height of his piracy in 1713 and 1718, when he sailed the seven seas on his ship Queen Anne's Revenge.

He was famously portrayed by Sir Peter Ustinov in 1966 film Blackbeard's Ghost and more recently Angus MacFadyen in the 2006 TV movie Blackbeard.
On Stranger Tides sees Captain Jack crossing paths with Angelica (Cruz), a sexy woman from his past.
Unsure of whether she genuinely feels for him or is a con artist using him to search for the fountain of youth, Captain Jack is forced onto Queen Anne's Revenge - Blackbeard's famous ship.
Jack finds himself torn between who to fear more - Blackbeard or Angelica.
Meanwhile, Depp has been tipped as the bookies favourite to play the timelord in a rumoured Doctor Who movie.
Bookmakers Paddy Power have given Depp 2/1 odds to landing the time-travelling role, who was last played on the big screen by Peter Cushing in 1966.
The film is due for release in May 2011.
