In a previously released teaser trailer of "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales", fans get to see a glimpse of Captain Salazar. But it's not until now that we get to see Jack Sparrow's new enemy in full.
The first full look at the villain is shared via USA Today. In the image, Captain Salazar is seen leading his ghostly crew. The sweeping in his lower-torso makes his appearance look more like a creature from the spirit world.
Captain Salazar is a terrifying ghostly sailor who is determined to kill Jack Sparrow. Captain Salazar's physical appearance bears resemblance to that of another villain character in the movie series, Davy Jones, who sports barnacle and seaweed.
The villainous ghostly-look sailor Captain Salazar, played by Javier Bardem, and his crew are off in a search for the Trident of Poseidon after escaping from Devil's Triangle. Trident of Poseidon, which everybody is after, is an artifact that is allegedly able to cure all curse. During the search, Captain Jack encounters deadly ghost sailors, led by the old and terrifying Captain Salazar. The only thing helps him to survive is the legendary Trident of Poseidon. It leads him to forge a jittery alliance with a gorgeous astronomer named Carina Smyth (Kaya Scodelario) and a young sailor in the Royal Navy, Henry (Brenton Thwaites).
Johnny Depp will reprise his iconic role as Captain Jack Sparrow. Other returning actors include Geoffrey Rush who will once again play Barbossa, Kevin R. McNally as Joshamee Gibbs, and Stephen Graham as Scrum. Directed by Joachim Ronning and Espen Sandberg, "Pirates of Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales" will be in theaters across the nation on May 26 in 3D, RealD 3D and IMAX 3D.
