Then we have the gloriously unhinged Angelica Teach, played by Penélope Cruz. She’s a con artist, a nun-in-hiding, and the daughter of Blackbeard. That’s right—she inherited a daddy who literally controls zombies and sets his beard on fire for dramatic effect. Family therapy must have been a nightmare.

Angelica’s superpower is pure, reckless bluffing. She convinces Jack Sparrow she’s his true love, then stabs him in the heart (metaphorically, then almost literally) to steal his ship. At one point, she swings from a rope, catches a pistol mid-air, and shoots three guys while wearing a dress that would trip a normal human. She’s basically a pirate ninja with commitment issues.

The Surprising Fact About Angelica

Here’s a wild tidbit: director Rob Marshall originally wanted Angelica to be less competent in fights. Penélope Cruz said, “Nah, I learned fencing for Vanilla Sky, let her throw an elbow.” She then trained for months to do her own sword fights while seven months pregnant. That’s right: the scene where she kicks a guy into a mast? That was a woman carrying a future pirate. Multitasking royalty.

Let’s not forget the often-overlooked Anamaria, played by Zoe Saldaña. She appears for all of one movie (the first one) and instantly steals every scene. Her entire motivation? Jack Sparrow stole her boat. That’s it. No dead parents, no lost love, no mysterious amulet. Just a woman demanding her boat back with a face that says, “I will gut you like a fish and use your intestines as rigging.”

Anamaria teaches us that you don’t need a grand backstory to be legendary. She punches Jack in the face, demands a ship, and then spends the rest of the film giving death glares to anyone who looks at her wrong. She’s every woman who has ever had to ask “Who took my charger?” multiplied by gunpowder and saltwater.

And what about the characters who are barely there but still dominate? The Scarlett and Giselle duo—two tavern girls who hate Jack Sparrow because he’s a terrible ex. They appear just long enough to slap him, call him a scoundrel, and then vanish. They are the emotional support jury of the entire franchise. Every time Jack waltzes into Port Royal, they collectively roll their eyes. Representing every woman who has ever dated a charismatic disaster.
