Roles:
[CAPTAIN STEDE BONNET]
Male Middle-aged Series Regular
Male. Middle- aged, healthy-looking, he's a man who's seen little hardship. Captain of The Revenge. Some captains are born to be pirates, others learn on the job-Stede is a pretty solid mix of both. He's a decent leader, but really not into the killing and pillaging aspect of pirating. He reads the crew
bedtime stories in funny character voices. We find out that he left his wife and two kids, upending his entire aristocratic life to become a pirate. Think Michael Scott from The Office, if he were to be the captain of a pirate ship.
In Talks Rhys Darby
[BLACKBEARD]

Series Regular Male, 40s - 50s. Rockstar pirate, Legend of the seas, inspires fear, real guy is Edward Teach, goes against Stede and makes him feel important again
