The trailer is due in a week or so, but in the meantime, here's a behind-the-scenes slice of **Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides{ =nofollow}, courtesy of Entertainment Tonight.

Stopping off in ye olde merrie England as well as the LA set, the clip gives us a few glimpses of Cap'n Jack action, not least of which is the streets-of-London hansome cab chase, which sees Johnny Depp performing his own feats of carriage-surfing derring-do. Over in LA meanwhile, there's some traditional piratey ship-board action, along with some domestic chores.

It all goes some way to proving what many have suspected: that On Stranger Tides is set to be a far more straightforward adventure than the bonkers At World's End. "A race to the fountain of youth" is a nicely catchy synopsis. But then again, we could have said "Setting sail for Davy Jones' Locker" last time, and look what happened there.

On Stranger Tides, as you're surely well aware by now, sees the return of Cap'ns Sparrow and Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush), and co-stars Ian McShane (of whom we get the fleetingest glimpse in the clip) as Blackbeard and Penelope Cruz as his daughter Angelica. Rob Marshall is directing, and it's out next May.
