When director Rob Marshall concludes location filming for Pirates of the Caribbean 4: On Stranger Tides, the production will shift to Pinewood Studios in the UK for soundstage work. “Stars including Johnny Depp, Geoffrey Rush, Penelope Cruz and Ian McShane will be at the studios later this year to shoot their parts,” reports Jack Abel in the Buckinghamshire Advertiser (the studio is located in Iver Heath). Andrew Smith, group director of corporate affairs for Pinewood, told the press: “We are thrilled that Pirates of the Caribbean has chosen to film part of the latest installment in this fantastic series here at Pinewood. It’s great for the UK film industry and for Pinewood Studios in particular. We look forward to welcoming the entire cast and crew.”

Dates for shooting at Pinewood have not yet been confirmed. The Zone thanks Sleepy for sharing the article; you can read much more about the filming of On Stranger Tides on the Zone’s News & Views forum.
