We had a brief teaser last month, now Max has now released the full trailer for the second season of its pirate dramedy “Our Flag Means Death”.
The series is based (very) loosely on the true adventures of 18th century would-be pirate Stede Bonnet (Rhys Darby). After trading the seemingly charmed life of a gentleman for one of a swashbuckling buccaneer, Stede became captain of the pirate ship Revenge.
Struggling to earn the respect of his potentially mutinous crew, Stede’s fortunes changed after a fateful run-in with the infamous Captain Blackbeard (Taika Waititi). To their surprise, the wildly different Stede and Blackbeard found more than friendship on the high seas… they found love. Now, they have to survive it.
Also back are Samson Kayo (Oluwande), Vico Ortiz (Jim), Ewen Bremner (Nathaniel Buttons), Joel Fry (Frenchie), Matthew Maher (Black Pete), Kristian Nairn (Wee John), Con O’Neill (Izzy Hands), David Fane (Fang), Samba Schutte (Roach), Nat Faxon (the Swede), and Leslie Jones (Spanish Jackie).
Ruibo Qian, Madeleine Sami, Anapela Polataivao, and Erroll Shand will recur whilst Minnie Driver and Bronson Pinchot guest star.
The show hails from comes from creator and showrunner David Jenkins, executive producer and star Waititi, and executive producer Garrett Basch. Dan Halsted, Adam Stein, and Antoine Douaihy also serve as executive producers.
