Warner Bros. Pictures and Disney released new posters for their biggest blockbuster hits of summer 2011: Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides and Green Lantern. The promotion materials for these films have been outstanding. For both films, the posters have been great compared to some of their competitors.

Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides

The poster above features new lovers Phillip Swift (Sam Clafflin) and mermaid Syrena (Astrid Berges-Frisbey). Here’s a character description of Phillip Swift:

Character Description: Phillip Swift:

Idealistic, courageous and fearless, this missionary defies even Blackbeard in an attempt to rescue the terrible pirate’s soul.

Philip Swift is on a mission completely unlike the pirates, scalawags, kings and sailors all in pursuit of the Fountain of Youth. His is a mission of salvation, and even when taken prisoner by Blackbeard and ruthlessly tortured, Philip’s spirit remains unbroken. But something stirs inside of his heart as well as his soul when he encounters the mermaid he calls Syrena on the quest for the Fountain of Youth—feelings which prove that the path to real deliverance may lie beyond the Good Book he carries with him.

Directed by Rob Marshall, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides hits theaters May 20th, 2011.
