Our Flag Means Death creator David Jenkins previewed where the show’s central romance will go in Season 2.The show’s first season climaxed with Stede Bonnet (Rhys Darby) and Ed “Blackbeard” Teach (Taika Waititi) confessing their feelings for each other, only to split apart due to Stede’s insecurity. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Jenkins discussed where the second season finds the star-crossed pirates. “It’s interesting to see Stede have to figure out how to reapproach this guy that he really hurt,” he explained. “That’s everybody who’s ever been in a relationship where they had to repair it and apologize to their partner and try to figure out a way forward. And then [we’ll] see what happened to Blackbeard in the wake of his heartbreak.” Jenkins added, “They’re both pretty immature in their own way. The course of this season is: Can they find their way to maybe a more mature form of love?”Complicating the story further is Blackbeard’s first mate Izzy Hands (Con O’Neill), whose loyalty belies a romantic devotion to the captain. “He understands what love is and whom he’s in love with,” O’Neill said of Izzy’s ‘remarkable journey’. “Physically it’s been quite demanding, and also emotionally it’s been quite demanding to be playing a man enraged by unrequited love, who’s basically a hopeless romantic, and to be able to play all that and also remember that this is fundamentally a comedy.”RELATED: Our Flag Means Death: An Unsuspecting Character Holds the Fate of Ed and Stede’s Romance in Their Hands
