Our Flag Means Death Season 2 Photos Set Max Release Date for Taika Waititi Comedy

The first batch of Our Flag Means Death Season 2 photos from the upcoming return of Max’s pirate comedy series have been revealed through Vanity Fair. The next installment is expected to arrive sometime in October, after over a year since Season 1 had wrapped up its 10-episode run.

The photos tease the return of Rhys Darby and Taika Waititi’s characters Stede Bonnet and Blackbeard, who, at the end of the first season, were both left heartbroken. It also gives fans a glimpse of the new cast members joining in the next chapter including Minnie Driver, Ruibo Qian, Madeleine Sami, and Anapela Polataivao.

Who’s Involved in Our Flag Means Death?

Our Flag Means Death stars Darby, Waititi, Kristian Nairn, Nathan Foad, Rory Kinnear, David Fane, Joel Fry, Guz Khan, Fred Armisen, and more. The series is created, written, and executive produced by David Jenkins (People of Earth), who is also serving as showrunner. Executive producers are Waititi, Garrett Basch, and Dan Halsted.

“Loosely based on the real-life adventures of Stede Bonnet, the comedy will center around a well-to-do gentleman farmer from a wealthy family who, after undergoing a midlife crisis, elects to leave and become the captain of Revenge, a pirate ship in the early 18th century,” reads the synopsis.

The series marks the fifth collaboration between Darby and Waititi, which began when the former starred in the cult-favorite HBO series Flight of the Conchords, on which Waititi was a writer/director, and followed with the mockumentary film What We Do in the Shadows. Their next project together is Searchlight Pictures’ sports comedy film Next Goal Wins, starring Michael Fassbender (Dark Phoenix) and Elisabeth Moss (The Invisible Man).
