Summary

Our Flag Means Death season 2, based on the Golden Age of Piracy, will premiere on Thursday, October 5, with new additions to the cast.

Stede and Blackbeard commence the season by embarking on their individual journeys following the expression of their love in the season 1 climax. The future of season 3 is unclear, although the creator subtly implies the potential for continuation while also suggesting that the story could potentially conclude in three parts.

The highly-anticipated second season of Our Flag Means Death has released its full trailer, promising an exciting return for fans of the hit Max comedy. Created by David Jenkins, the show takes inspiration from true events and centers around the Golden Age of Piracy in the early 18th century. Specifically, it follows the adventures of Stede (played by Rhys Darby) and his crew as they strive to establish themselves as pirates, all while encountering the notorious Blackbeard (portrayed by Taika Waititi). Max has now unveiled the complete trailer for season 2, revealing that the eight-episode installment will premiere on Thursday, October 5, with the first three episodes.

The show will then transition to airing two episodes weekly until the finale on Thursday, October 26. While season 3 has not been officially confirmed, certain details about the future of the Max comedy have been disclosed.

What To Expect From Our Flag Means Death Season 2

After proclaiming their affection for each other in the season 1 finale of Our Flag Means Death, Stede and Blackbeard find themselves separated. However, their professed love appears to be just the beginning, as indicated by the synopsis. The real challenge lies in their fight for survival. As the story progresses, the focus shifts away from the unlikely romance in this comedy. Excitingly, new characters will join the thrilling adventure.

Minnie Driver, an Emmy nominee, will join the cast of Our Flag Means Death season 2 as the real-life Irish pirate Anne Bonny. Ruibo Qian, known for her role in Manchester by the Sea, will also be joining the ensemble as a mystery merchant named Susan. They will be joining the returning actors Darby, Waititi, Samson Kayo, Vico Ortiz, Ewen Bremner, Joel Fry, Matthew Maher, Kristian Nairn, Con O’Neill, David Fane, Samba Schutte, Nat Faxon, and Leslie Jones.

If Our Flag Means Death season 3 is renewed, it could potentially be the show's final season, according to the series creator. Jenkins has hinted that there may be more to come, but is also open to concluding the story with three parts. Nonetheless, viewers can still expect plenty of exciting developments as the pirate saga continues.
