The wait is finally over, and in just one day, STARZ’s critically-acclaimed and Emmy-winning series Black Sails returns for season 2. The ten-episode second season of the authentic high sails drama series follows the most feared pirate of the day, Captain Flint (Toby Stephens), and his men, and takes place twenty years prior to Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic “Treasure Island.”
Season 2 begins where we left off—The Walrus crew is stranded, with an army of Spanish soldiers standing between them and the precious Urca gold. And with their crimes against their brethren no longer a secret, Flint and Silver must join forces in a desperate bid for survival. Meanwhile, Eleanor Guthrie struggles to maintain her grip on Nassau, as a new breed of pirate arrives in the form of Ned Low, a man for whom violence isn’t just a tool … it’s a past time. As blood is spilled, and tensions mount, Charles Vane must decide which he values more; Eleanor’s life, or the respect of his men. And unbeknownst to all of them, a prize of immeasurable value has already been smuggled onto the island … one whose discovery will alter the very landscape of their world, and force everyone in Nassau to toward the ultimate judgment: are they men, or are they monsters?
The STARZ original series stars Toby Stephens (Die Another Day), Hannah New (Maleficient, “El Tiempo Entre Costuras”), Luke Arnold (“Never Tear Us Apart: The Untold Story of Michael Hutchence”), Jessica Parker Kennedy (“The Secret Circle”), Zach McGowan (“Shameless”) and Tadhg Murphy (“Vikings”).
Official synopsis of episode 2.01 “1X.” from STARZ: “Flint and Silver face judgment before the crew. Vane enjoys his new position on the island. Max confronts Bonny. Eleanor faces a new threat.”
The season 2 premiere of Black Sails airs tomorrow night at 9/8c on STARZ.
