MAX’s ‘Our Flag Means Death” releases the first official trailer for Season 2, which sees the return of Stede Bonnet and Captain Blackbeard.
Season 2 premieres on MAX on October 5th, and it will include an 8-episode run.
Synopsis: ‘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.
