The synopsis for season 2 reads:

“After trading in the seemingly charmed life of a gentleman for one of a swashbuckling buccaneer, Stede became captain of the pirate ship Revenge.”

It continues:

“Struggling to earn the respect of his potentially mutinous crew, Stede’s fortunes changed after a fateful run-in with the infamous Captain Blackbeard, played by Waititi. To their surprise, the wildly different Stede and Blackbeard found more than friendship on the high seas… they found love. Now they have to survive it.”

The cast of the series includes:

• Rhys Darby
• Ewen Bremner
• Joel Fry
• Samson Kayo
• Nathan Foad
• Vico Ortiz
• Matthew Maher

While Rhys Darby leads the show as the Gentleman Pirate Stede Bonnet, Taika Waititi takes on the role of his love interest, a legendary and feared pirate captain, Edward "Ed" Teach / Blackbeard.
