Max has released a trailer for the second season of the pirate comedy Our Flag Means Death which teases heartbreak on the high seas as Taika Waititi’s infamous pirate Blackbeard go on a rampage, seeking vengeance against his swashbuckling buccaneer ex-boyfriend, Rhys Darby’s Stede Bonnet after their unexpected romance came to an end in the season one finale. Watch the trailer below…
OUR FLAG MEANS DEATH 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.
Season 2 sees the return of Rhys Darby, Taika Waititi, Samson Kayo, Vico Ortiz, Ewen Bremner, Joel Frey, Matthew Maher, Kristian Nairn, Con O’Neill, Dave Fane, Samba Schutte, Nat Faxon, and Leslie Jones, alongside series newcomers Minnie Driver, Ruibo Qian, Madeleine Sami, Anapela Polataivao, Erroll Shand, and Bronson Pinchot.
Our Flag Means Death season 2 premieres on Max on October 5th.
