Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Jack Rackham and Anne Bonny, two of Black Sails' pirates who are based on real people, have a much happier ending in fiction than in reality. Starz's pirate show was conceived as a prequel to Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island, meaning Black Sails' cast includes actors playing fictional characters like Captain James Flint and Captain John Silver.

Related Where Was Black Sails Filmed? All Caribbean Locations Explained Black Sails is a pirate series that ran for four seasons and here are the locations where it was shot, which were made to look like the Caribbean. What Happened To Jack Rackham & Anne Bonny In Black Sails Calico Jack and Anne Bonny survive the ending of Black Sails. In Black Sails season 4, the central conflict surrounds the pirates of Nassau facing down English opposition, led by Woodes Rogers.

The ending of Jack Rackham and Anne Bonny in Black Sails is much happier than what happened to them in real life. In real history, Jack was eventually captured and imprisoned for his crimes, eventually being hung for his years of piracy. Similarly, Anne Bonny was captured and sentenced to death, though her execution was delayed due to her pregnancy. After this point, history does not make clear what happened to Anne Bonny, though her ending was suitably grim as was Jack's.

"We don’t suggest that he wouldn’t meet his historic death eventually. Treasure Island was notorious for playing fast and loose with historical events. We felt like we were empowered to play with dates as needed."
