“The Buccaneers” has been renewed for a second season at Apple TV+.

The 19th century period drama from U.K. scripted production company The Forge is based on Edith Wharton’s unfinished novel of the same name. It tells the story of a group of party-loving American girls in 1870 who descend upon London to bag a husband and inadvertently find themselves navigating an Anglo-American culture clash.

“Sent to secure husbands and titles, the buccaneers’ hearts are set on much more than that, and saying ‘I do’ is just the beginning…” reads the logline.

Leading the cast are Kristine Frøseth (“The Assistant”) as Nan St. George, Alisha Boe (“13 Reasons Why”) as Conchita Closson, Josie Totah (“Saved by the Bell”) as Mabel Elmsworth, Aubri Ibrag (“Dive Club”) as Lizzy Elmsworth and Imogen Waterhouse (“Nocturnal Animals”) as Jinny St. George.

Also starring are Christina Hendricks (“Mad Men”) as Mrs. St. George while Mia Threapleton (“I Am Ruth”) plays Honoria Marable, Josh Dylan (“Noughts + Crosses”) plays Lord Richard Marable, Guy Remmers (“Lessons”) is Theo, Duke of Tintagel, Matthew Broome (“Scandaltown”) plays Guy Thwarte and Barney Fishwick (“Living”) is Lord James Seadown.

The series was created by Katherine Jakeways (“Tracey Ullman’s Show”). Season 1, which dropped on Nov. 8, was directed by Susanna White (“Bleak House”). Beth Willis (“Doctor Who”) and Jakeways serve as exec producers.

“It’s been a complete thrill to watch people all over the world fall in love with these characters, who’ve been brought to such vibrant life by our spectacular cast,” said series creator Katherine Jakeways. “We know Season 1 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.”

Jay Hunt, creative director at Apple TV+ in Europe added: “The irreverence and wit of ‘The Buccaneers’ charmed global audiences and we’re excited to be working with Katherine Jakeways and The Forge again on the next adventure for Nan and her friends.”
