The Buccaneers er en ny drama serie i 8 afsnit fra Apple TV+ der har premiere 8. november. Tre afsnit frigives på premieredagen herefter ugentligt frem til 13. december.
En flok festglade amerikanske piger dukker op i 1870’ernes tilknappede London og bliver årsag til et britisk-amerikansk kultursammenstød. Pigerne er sendt af sted for at opnå ægteskab og status, men de drømmer om meget mere end det.
The music-driven series blends 1870s English aristocracy with a modern soundtrack produced by Stella Mozgawa (of the band Warpaint) and packed with songs from today’s top female performers that include Taylor Swift, Maggie Rogers, Bikini Kill, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Angel Olsen, Brandi Carlile and more, along with original music from Folick, Lucius, Alison Mosshart, Warpaint, Gracie Abrams, Sharon Van Etten, Bully, Danielle Ponder and more, as well as series composers AVAWAVES.
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.
