Our Flag Means Death
From creator David Jenkins and executive producer Taika Waititi comes a unique new comedy (very) loosely based on the true adventures of 18th-century would-be pirate, Stede Bonnet. After trading in the seemingly charmed life of a gentleman for one of a swashbuckling buccaneer, Stede becomes captain of the pirate ship Revenge. Struggling to earn the respect of his potentially mutinous crew, Stede's fortunes change after a fateful run-in with the infamous Captain Blackbeard, history's greatest pirate. Outrageously funny, Our Flag Means Death invites audiences to join Stede and crew as they attempt to get their ship together and survive life on the high seas.
