First look: Gemma Ward’s Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides promotional image

There are only three weeks to go until Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides premieres worldwide at the Cannes Film Festival and we have the first official promotional still of Australian supermodel/actress Gemma Ward as Tamara, the Queen of the Mermaids.

Looking angelic and looking much younger than her 23 years, Ward is shown with her head and shoulders above the water – leaving us in suspense of how the mermaid tails will look. It’s been a much discussed topic in the Pirates’ fan forums that we’re curious now too.

We can’t wait to see Ward in the fourth Pirates sequel with her recent run at the Perth Theatre Company in The Ugly Ones getting positive reviews. Perth Now’s Maria Noakes said of her debut stage performance:

No doubt given time Ward will come into her own as an actress. Despite her inexperience she is mesmerising to watch. It’s a surreal experience seeing the towering former international supermodel perform just metres in front of you and an experience Perth audiences won’t forget in a hurry.

Will you be watching Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides when it’s released next month?
