“Why can’t one be a gentleman and a pirate?”
That’s the question posed by Stede Bonnet (Rhys Darby), the main character of HBO Max’s upcoming comedy series, Our Flag Means Death. A pampered aristocrat, Stede abandons his life to captain a pirate ship. Misadventures on the high seas ensue.
Our Flag Means Death co-stars Leslie Jones, Fred Armisen, Joel Fry, Nat Faxon, Game of Thrones’s Kristian Nairn, and Taika Waititi, who also serves as executive producer.
Waititi dons the iconic facial hair of the most notorious pirate in history: Blackbeard.
