‘The Buccaneers’ Coming Back for Season 2

The Buccaneers Apple TV Plus

(L-R) Alisha Boe, Josie Totah, Kristine Frøseth, Aubri Ibrag and Imogen Waterhouse in “The Buccaneers,” now streaming on Apple TV Plus.

One of the delightful surprises of the fall TV season is coming back for another round, as Apple TV Plus is moving forward with season 2 of The Buccaneers.

 

The platform announced the news this morning through a press release, though no more specifics were given. The main cast is expected to return though, including Kristine Frøseth as Nan St. George, Alisha Boe as Conchita Closson, Josie Totah as Mabel Elmsworth, Aubri Ibrag as Lizzy Elmsworth, Imogen Waterhouse as Jinny St. George, Christina Hendricks as Mrs. St. George, and Mia Threapleton as Honoria Marable.

 

Series creator Katherine Jakeways confirmed her return as well through the following statement:

 

“We know season one left audiences desperate to know what’s next for our buccaneers, so I’m absolutely delighted to have the opportunity to explore the further adventures of this smart, joyful, messy sisterhood.”

 

No release date has been set.

 

Based on an unfinished novel by Edith Wharton, here’s the official synopsis for the first season:

 

“Girls with money, men with power. New money, old secrets. A group of fun-loving young American girls explode into the tightly corseted London season of the 1870s, kicking off an Anglo-American culture clash as the land of the stiff upper lip is infiltrated by a refreshing disregard for centuries of tradition. Sent to secure husbands and titles, the buccaneers’ hearts are set on much more than that, and saying ‘I do’ is just the beginning.”
