Bay said: "We've had a fantastic experience working with [starz CEO] Chris Albrecht and [show creator] Jon Steinberg. Brad, Andrew and I look forward to continuing our partnership with Starz on future episodes for this extraordinary show."

 

Black Sails' first season, airing from January 2014, will comprise of eight episodes and focus on Captain Flint (Toby Stephens) and his men. It takes place 20 years before Robert Louis Stevenson's classic adventure novel Treasure Island.

 

Albrecht added: "Michael Bay, Jon Steinberg and their teams delivered a spectacular first season of Black Sails, and we are incredibly proud of everyone's work. 

 

"Based on the strong fan response to the preview screening at last week's Comic-Con, we felt an early order for a second season would allow the writers, cast and crew enough time and space to continue crafting such unique and epic storytelling."

 

Steinberg said: "We are thrilled to be receiving such an exciting vote of confidence from everyone at Starz and for the opportunity to carry the Black Sails adventure into season two without missing a beat. We couldn't ask for better partners in bringing our pirate world to life."
