Beauty School : Our Flag Means Death Renewed For Second Season at HBO

The crew of HBO’s Our Flag Means Death is ready to set sail once again, as HBO has renewed the series for a second season.

Following the conclusion of the first season earlier this year, Our Flag Means Death has quickly become a fan favorite among HBO’s offerings, receiving positive reviews from critics for its comedic aspects and stellar cast.

The series stars Rhys Darby and Taika Waititi as real-life pirates Stede Bonnet and Ed Teach, the latter of which is better known as Blackbeard. It is loosely based on the real-life adventures of Bonnet, 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.

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.

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 was followed by 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).
