First Look at Ian McShane as Blackbeard

Aside from the anticipation of seeing Johnny Depp returning to his role as Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, it seems a lot of hype has been built around Ian McShane being cast as the iconic Blackbeard

Well we get our first look at McShane in full Blackbeard digs here:

While Penelope Cruz is looking like she raided Elizabeth’s pirate closet after they retired her character out of the series, Ian McShane looks awesome as Blackbeard.

McShane just owned the HBO series Deadwood, and if his Blackbeard has half the balls that Al Swearengen had on that show, we are in for one feircesome pirate indeed!
