Our Flag Means Death: Season 2 Trailer Sets Sail with Love, Chaos, and Heartbreak
Ahoy, fellow pirate enthusiasts! Get ready to hoist the anchor of excitement because Max (formerly known as HBO Max) has finally released the long-awaited trailer for the second season of Our Flag Means Death. And let us tell you something fam, it looks fantastic! With a tantalizing tagline that reads “prepare to have your ship wrecked,” this two-minute Season 2 trailer promises an unforgettable journey on the high seas of love, heartbreak, and lots of adventures.
Last year, Our Flag Means Death made a dazzling premiere on the streaming service, capturing the hearts of millions around the globe with its unique storytelling, diverse cast, and outstanding LGBTQ+ representation. And although the Season 1 finale left us on a gripping cliffhanger with the crew divided, Stede (Rhys Darby) on a quest to reunite with his found family, and a heartbroken Blackbeard (Taika Waititi) ready to unleash chaos upon those who wronged him. Now that the Season 2 trailer is here, it looks like we finally have some answers to our million questions.
As we set sail once more with Stede and Blackbeard, we witness the aftermath of their heart-wrenching separation. Season 2 of Our Flag Means Death sails into uncharted territory as we find Stede and Blackbeard attempting to piece together their shattered relationship and charting a new course back to each other, all while fulfilling their pirate responsibilities.
And while Stede and Blackbeard remain the central focus of the show, audiences can expect to get a closer look at how the rest of the crew has fared and get answers to lingering questions about the fate of some of their favorite characters.
As we had already shared with you when we brought you the first look at the new season of Our Flag Means Death, all your favorite crew members will be back for Season 2. That means Stede, Blackbeard, Izzy Hands (Con O’Neill), Frenchie (Joel Fry), Oluwande (Samson Kayo), Black Pete (Matthew Maher), Wee John Feeney (Kristian Nairn), Roach (Samba Schutte), Buttons (Ewen Bremner), Jim (Vico Ortiz), The Swede (Nat Faxon), Ivan (Guz Khan), and Fang (David Fane) all will set sail again, with some additional new faces joining the adventure and promising to bring intrigue to the mix.
And what about Lucious (Nathan Foad), you ask? Well… we’re not sure of his fate, but we’re confident that he survived being thrown off the ship by Blackbeard and that he too will be back for more. But we guess we’ll have to wait and see if we’re right or not about that one.
In the meantime, check out the Season 2 trailer here:
We seriously can’t wait for this new season to grace our screens! If the trailer is any indication of what to expect, we think it’s safe to say we should prepare to have our emotions wrecked along with the ship. It looks like it will be quite a ride, but we think we’re ready. Or are we not?
With just a few weeks until the show’s release, and the promise of love, adventure, and heartbreak on the horizon, the new season of Our Flag Means Death is set to be an unforgettable voyage. So set sail with us as we eagerly await the next chapter in this captivating pirate tale!
