New HBO series Our Flag Means Death is a pirate adventure based on the true story of Stede Bonnet, known as The Gentleman Pirate. With Taika Waititi on board as co-star and director on some episodes, this hilarious series manages to take the workplace sitcom and blend it with the high seas and swashbuckling action. The first season of the show focuses on Rhys Darby as Stede as he and his crew try to build recognition as the best pirates of the day.
I recently chatted with series creator David Jenkins and executive producer Garrett Basch. We talked about the long-term plan for this series since it is based on actual history as well as who the funniest person was on set. We also dove into which of them would make the best pirate and their favorite cast member as well as guest star this season. Check out the full interview in the embed above.
Our Flag Means Death premieres on March 3rd on HBO Max.
