![]() In the course of our conversation with Claflin, we asked the actor what he thought of his mysterious end, and what he hoped and believed it meant for the future of his character in the Pirates franchise. ![]() We will say that the conclusion that had the audience buzzing the most at the screening we attended had to do with the Philip and Syrena storyline. On Stranger Tides has roughly three cliffhanger endings (which we will not spoil here). In our interview with Captain Barbossa, Geoffrey Rush, the actor mentioned that every Pirates film has a cliffhanger ending. (You can see our our earlier piece on what audiences can expect from Claflin’s Prince Charming in Snow White and the Huntsmen HERE.) We had the chance to speak with Claflin about his On Stranger Tides role at the Los Angeles press day for the film. They also propel the plot forward, and co-create what is one of the more interesting dynamics in the film. Philip and his counterpart, the mermaid Syrena ( Astrid Beges-Frisbey), serve (in some ways) to establish the b-love-storyline that Orlando Bloom’s Will Turner and Keira Knightley’s Elizabeth Swann provided in the first film. Claflin ultimately won the role of Philip, the missionary who falls for a mermaid, in Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. When Sam Claflin got a call from his agent saying that he had an audition for the new Pirates of the Caribbean film, his initial response was “What’s the point? It’s never going to happen, it’s impossible.” The actor was both shocked and deeply gratified when he in fact found himself flying to Los Angeles to meet director Rob Marshall and producer Jerry Bruckheimer just two days later.
