'The Buccaneers' Season 2 to Feature Actor from the 1995 Miniseries
Production at last seems to be underway on the second season of Apple TV+'s The Buccaneers, the streamer's colorful, unconventional adaptation of Edith Wharton's final, unfinished novel.
The drama's first season saw its titular squad of wealthy American heiresses arrive in England and immediately shake up the established order. The series' first outing certainly ends in wildly dramatic style: Nan St. James is the newly married Duchess of Tintagel despite her lingering romantic feelings for her husband's BFF. Her pregnant sister Jinny is on the run from an abusive spouse, and unbeknownst to either girl, Nan's as yet unidentified birth mother showed up for the wedding.
Elsewhere, Conchita's wealthy family has lost all their money, and she doesn't yet know her husband's father is dying, so instead of the freewheeling happily ever after he's promised her, he'll have to step up as the new Lord Brightlingsea sooner rather than later. Oh, and Mabel has come out to her sister Lizzy, called off her engagement with Miles, and confessed her romantic feelings to Honoria. I'm saying there's still plenty of drama on the horizon for almost every character — as well as some new faces we haven't met yet.
