Walt Disney sent out a press release announcing Astrid Bergès-Frisbey has been cast in the “key role” of Syrena, a beautiful and alluring young mermaid, in Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, the fourth installment in the Pirates franchise. While no one knows the exact story of the fourth film, for Disney to send out a press release like this, her role must be very important.
Hit the jump for the press release. The fourth Pirates movie begins filming this June in Hawaii, Great Britain and Los Angeles. The film is slated to open on May 20, 2011.
Astrid Bergès-Frisbey has been selected by producer Jerry Bruckheimer and director Rob Marshall to star in the key role of Syrena, a beautiful and alluring young mermaid, in Walt Disney Pictures’/Jerry Bruckheimer Films’ epic adventure “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides,” the fourth in the blockbuster series of films. Bergès -Frisbey joins Johnny Depp, returning in his iconic role of Captain Jack Sparrow. The film is slated to open on May 20, 2011.
Born in Barcelona of French-American and Catalan parentage, and now based in Paris, Bergès-Frisbey, one of France’s brightest young stars, appears in such French films as “La Fille du Puisatier,” “Bruc,” “Extase,” “La Premiere Etoile” and “Un Barrage Contre le Pacifique.” She has also appeared in the telefilms “La Reine Morte,” “Elles et Moi,” “Divine Emilie” and “Sur le Fil.” Berges-Frisbey appeared on stage at the Theatre Marigny in a production of Peter Shaffer’s “Equus.”
“Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides” is directed by Rob Marshall, whose first feature film was the Academy Award®-winning “Chicago,” followed by “Memoirs of a Geisha” and “Nine.” Producer Jerry Bruckheimer’s films include (producing with Don Simpson) “Top Gun,” “Beverly Hills Cop,” “Flashdance,” and (producing solo) “Con Air,” “Armageddon,” the “Pirates of the Caribbean” trilogy and the “National Treasure” franchise, as well as this summer’s “Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time” and “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice.” JBTV’s current series are “C.S.I.: Crime Scene Investigation” and its spin-offs “C.S.I.: Miami,” “C.S.I.: NY” and “Without a Trace,” “Cold Case,” “The Amazing Race” and “Miami Medical.”
The first three films in the “Pirates of the Caribbean” series amassed a total international box office of $2.7 billion.
Beginning in June, “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides” will film entirely on location in Hawaii, Great Britain and Los Angeles.

Cool! If this Pirates movie deals with ferocious merpeople, this could be pretty cool!
she is neither beautiful OR alluring so EPIC FAIL!
mermaids…. really?
sweet jesus i hope it's better and less convoluted than the last two movies.
I could see this work. In the fictional series, Jack actually encountered mermaids a couple times. They were very vicious (not to mention quite evil too). The series is by Rob Kidd, its more for kids, but it was actually goos
Oh, I love the interwebs. You get fat dateless losers stuffing Cheetos down their always open mouths while typing that some very attractive girl (On would never give 'Jamie' the time of the day) isn't beautiful. Yeah, whatever fatface.

Es maravilloso ver tu trajectoria por todo el trabajo que hay detras.
Es una niña muy linda , hace una papel espectacular en la pelicula , en tre misterioso y ternura.Sinceramente esta muy preciosa esta chica.
Es una chica muy linda tiene una sonrisa y unos ojitos preciosos , y trabaja espectacular en la pelicula , actua bn en esta pelicula , la hace entre misteriosa y un toque de ternura, es muy chevere.
I just saw the film today, and it was quite fun to watch. While my favorite is still the first film, I think they did a great job with this one. Ian McShane was the perfect choice for Blackbeard, and as always Keith Richards is the shit. By the way, the mermaids are both HAWT and terrifying. I give it a 8 out of 10.
Did I mention that Jack copes a feel from the Queen?
