Exclusive: Stephen Graham reveals 'Pirates 4' details

Stephen Graham has revealed details about his character Scram in Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.

Speaking to Digital Spy, the British actor said that he is having a "brilliant" and "fun" time making the fourth movie in the adventure series.

Graham said of his character: "I'm Penelope Cruz's right-hand man, but don't get me wrong [Scram will] go anywhere where there's a pound note and a job involved. He doesn't have to be loyal to anyone. He's a great character to play and it's nice for me, for a change, to play some comedy.

"He's got a slightly glass eye. He's got half an eye on his right eye. He's got a huge scar around his face near that eye as well. It's great to let my hair down and have a bit of fun with the script."

Graham also offered praise for Pirates star Johnny Depp, who he worked with on Michael Mann's crime epic Public Enemies.

"You don't sit down for a cup of tea and he talks like Jack Sparrow, he's not like that," Graham said. "That's what I love about him, you can sit and chat and he'll be talking about some kind of mushroom in a lovely dinner he had and then you say 'action!' and he just becomes Jack Sparrow.

"Then he'll come back and say, 'About that sauce. What you need to do is add a little bit of…' It's just fantastic how he clicks into character."
