Meet Leighton Meester's New Character In ‘The Buccaneers' Season 2 Trailer As Nan Tries To 'Let Go' Of Guy
The full trailer for Season 2 of Apple TV+'s period drama The Buccaneers has arrived, and it teases more sisterhood, romance, love affairs, bold declarations, bright gowns, breathtaking landscapes and a plot twist or two. The second season welcomes series newcomer Leighton Meester, whose character Nell can be seen at the end of the clip asking Christina Hendricks' Patricia St. George to introduce her to Kristine Frøseth's Nan St. George. More from Deadline 'The Buccaneers' Season 2 Casts Greg Wise, Maria Almeida, Grace Ambrose & Jacob Ifan 'The Buccaneers' Season 2 Sets Apple TV+ Release Date; Reveals First Look At Leighton Meester, Photos & Teaser Clip Zoë Kravitz On Playing A "More Psychotic" Version Of Herself In 'The Studio': "If You Can't Make Fun Of Yourself, I Think There's Something Wrong" 'Theo and I are happy,' Nan says at the beginning of the clip. 'I'm in this for life.' This declaration comes after Nan had to make a difficult decision and marry Theo (Guy Remmers), Duke of Tintagel, so that her flame Guy Thwarte (Matthew Broome) could help Nan's sister Ginny (Imogen Waterhouse) escape from her abusive husband Lord James Seadown (Barney Fishwick). 'Everything before 'I do' is now irrelevant,' Theo's mother, the Dowager Duchess of Tintagel (Amelia Bullmore) tells Nan in the woods, sternly advising Nan to be faithful to her husband. 'All Theo needs to know is that he has a dutiful and loving wife, but Annabel, anyone can be a wife. You are…' 'A Duchess,' Nan completes. 'I really want to make this version of my life work. I have to let Guy go.' The clip features Chappell Roan's 'Good Luck Babe,' continuing the tradition established in Season 1 with a modern soundtrack of mostly women artists. Cue Guy's voiceover perspective as he and Jinny escape somewhere bright and sunny with Jinny's baby. 'Everything has changed except the way I feel,' he says as he looks at the newspaper headlines, which tell him what is happening in Nan's world, advertising her honeymoon with Theo. 'Theo thinks this is real,' Nan tells her mother. 'He thinks I chose to marry him.' 'You did the bravest thing I have ever known,' Patty tells Nan. 'And saved your sister.' Nan fiercely stands up to Lord Seadown both one on one and at a dining table full of guests. 'No man should be allowed to own his wife,' she asserts. Cut to a triumphant walk by Nan in a bright red dress with a bold hairstyle as guests turn heads. 'Happily Ever After' flashes in bright neon blue across the long train of her dress. More musical moments and needle drops in Season 2 will include Taylor Swift, as well as songs from Lady Gaga, Sabrina Carpenter, Gracie Abrams, Clairo, Sharon Van Etten, St. Vincent, Bleachers and The Last Dinner Party. The original soundtrack for season two celebrates the return of executive music producer Stella Mozgawa and features Empress Of's new single 'Little Secret' out today with the trailer along with new music from Suki Waterhouse, Madi Diaz, Holly Humberstone, Kacy Hill, Jade Bird, Emily Kokal of Warpaint and more. The second installment of the show, inspired by Edith Wharton's unfinished novel, also reunites returning stars Alisha Boe, Aubri Ibrag, Josie Totah, Mia Threapleton and more. The Buccaneers returns to Apple TV+ Wednesday, June 18, 2025 with one episode followed by one new episode every Wednesday through August 6, 2025.

‘The Buccaneers' Season 2 Soundtrack: From Griff To Sabrina Carpenter
With its first season Apple TV+'s The Buccaneers made a name for itself with its focus on all women musicians featured in the show's soundtrack, with needle drops like Taylor Swift's 'Nothing New,' Japanese Breakfast's 'Be Sweet,' Brandi Carlile's 'Broken Horses' and Bikini Kill's 'Rebel Girl' featured in the first season, to name a few. Swift's 'Nothing New' was used in the scene where Nan St. George (Kristine Frøseth) and her friends made their society debut, similar to the procession of Netflix's Bridgerton in white dresses and feathers. Later on in the first season, songs like 'Kissing Lessons' by Lucy Dacus, 'Cedar' by Gracie Abrams,' 'Bite the Hand' by boygenius, 'Want Want' by Maggie Rogers' and another Taylor Swift anthem, 'Long Live' highlighted the high stakes of Nan's decisions. Season 2 continues in the vein of mostly women artsits featured on the soundtrack. It also features Chloé Caillet's remix of 'North American Scum' by the Emily Kokal featuring Miya Folick. Jennifer Smuckler and Christina Azarian serve as music leads on the show, and Stella Mozgawa worked as executive music producer, collaborating with artists for certain songs featured in later episodes.

Dogs are family, says NY judge in dachshund death case
What was once was man's best friend is now man's closest family — in New York, at least. Dogs are so much more than just possessions, a Brooklyn judge just ruled, in allowing the heartbroken family of an adorable, Tuxedo-wearing dachschund named Duke to sue for emotional distress after the tiny pup was cruelly mowed down by a driver. Nan DeBlase, who was walking her son Trevor DeBlase's pooch on July 4, 2023, is entitled to damages because she was tormented by witnessing the helpless 4-year-old get crushed, Supreme Court Judge Aaron Maslow said. Advertisement 'It is reasonable for a jury to conclude that witnessing Duke being crushed led to emotional distress that goes beyond that which is generally felt by the loss of mere property,' Maslow wrote in his bombshell decision Tuesday. 'This Court fails to see why a beloved companion pet could not be considered 'immediate family' in the context of the zone of danger doctrine under the fact pattern presented by Plaintiffs.' 7 Duke decked out in a sharp tuxedo for Trevor Deblase's April 2023 wedding. Instagram/@trevdeblase Advertisement Nearly exactly two years ago, Nan was walking with Duke in Mill Basin when an out-of-control driver blew through a stop sign, slamming into the leashed wiener dog as Nan jumped out of harm's way. 'It was very traumatic, extremely,' Nan, 66, told The Post Wednesday. 'I mean, I was hysterical when it happened.' Duke's untimely death — just a few months after he walked down the aisle at Trevor's wedding, dressed in a sharp tux — was all captured on video and shows how Nan even patiently waited for an earlier car to drive through before crossing the street. 'A few hours ago a man blew a stop sign, almost hit my mother and hit my poor sweet Duke and killed him,' Deblase wrote on his Instagram page on July 4, 2023. Advertisement 7 Dogs, like Duke the dachshund, can be legally family, according to a Brooklyn judge this week. Instagram/@ 'I can't even believe I am typing these words right now,' the post reads. 'I loved this dog more than life itself and things will never be the same without him.' Challenging an outdated law — and winning The DeBlases sued a month later, challenging an 'antiquated' law which only allowed Trevor to sue driver Mitchell Hill for the market value of his treasured pooch, plus medical costs — roughly $2,000. And the mother-son duo won — mostly — with Maslow granting Nan's claim to emotional distress because she was there and Duke was leashed, but denying it for Trevor as he was not at the scene. Advertisement 7 On July 4, 2023, a driver plowed through a stop sign in Mill Basin and took a sharp left-hand turn, right into Duke, killing him, and narrowly missing Trevor DeBlase's mother, Nan. 'Since Nan DeBlase was tethered to Duke at the time of the accident,' Maslow's decision read, 'it is proper for her to recover damages for emotional distress resulting from witnessing Duke's death and fear for her own safety, all due to Defendant's negligent, indeed reckless, operation of his vehicle.' While the decision greatly expands the legal definition of family tree, the judge made his ruling a 'carveout' that applies to people walking a leashed dog, only to watch a negligent driver crush and kill their beloved dog, and nearly kill them too. 'I took a step to get out of the way of this monster, who not only ran a stop sign, but was making a turn,' Nan recalled. 'If you don't see the stop sign, how do you see people? It was like he was driving with his eyes closed, and yet was able to make a left turn — I can't even understand it.' 7 'I can't even believe I am typing these words right now,' Trevor DeBlase wrote in a social media post about his dog Duke's death. 'I loved this dog more than life itself and things will never be the same without him.' Instagram/@ She called Maslow's ruling 'long overdue' in New York. Dog owners in Tennessee are similarly allowed to sue for up to $5,000 of non-economic damages if a pet is killed or sustains serious injury from another — but the act must occur on the victim's property. 'These things — they should have changed a long time ago — and not just in New York, but in all the states,' she said. While Trevor now has another dachshund — Cooper — Duke's death still affects him and Nan 'horribly.' Advertisement 7 While Trevor now has another dachshund — Cooper — Duke's death still affects him and his mom 'horribly,' she told The Post. Facebook/Trevor DeBlase 'They miss Duke so much,' Nan told The Post. 'They have a little shrine in their house dedicated to him.' 'You can't fill that spot,' Nan said, adding that she also got her own dog, a poodle mix named Cashew, 'but you can try.' How the 'zone of danger' came into play The DeBlase family's argument for negligent emotional distress over Duke's death comes from a legal concept known as 'zone of danger,' which limits such claims to relatives who were in harm's way when their loved one was killed. Advertisement 7 'I took a step to get out of the way of this monster,' Nan DeBlase told The Post, 'who not only ran a stop sign, but was making a turn. It was like he was driving with his eyes closed, and yet was able to make a left turn — I can't even understand it.' Hill and his lawyer, who the judge said 'provided no opposing evidence' in the hearings, did not reply to requests for comment. The judge found him in the wrong on various fronts: he ran the stop sign, didn't use his turn single and did not check before turning at the intersection. In a move that showed Maslow took the dog-human family relationship seriously, he asked for outside groups to file papers in support of DeBlase or Hill — and surprisingly, many big-name animal groups sided with the deadly driver. A ruling in favor of Duke and his family, according to groups like the the New York State Veterinary Medical Society and the American Kennel Club, would create out-of-control liabilities for the pet industry, and raise costs across the board. Advertisement But Maslow's ruling was crafted almost specifically to avoid this 'parade of horrors' argument,' which he called 'overstated.' Maslow wrote 'it stands to reason that companion animals, like Duke, could also be recognized, as a matter of common sense, as immediate family,' citing changing societal norms. 7 Trevor's claim for emotional damages was denied, but his mother's was granted, since she was nearly killed herself and witnessed Duke's death while she was holding his leash. Instagram/@ He added that the ruling would be limited to dogs, because of his 'leashed' stipulation and that 'very few people walk tethered to their cats, rabbits, or other non-dog pets on a leash,' Maslow wrote. Advertisement Other animal rights groups who filed papers supporting Duke's family cheered the ruling, with one group thanking Maslow for his 'wisdom and courage.' 'Animals are not 'things'; they are living, breathing, sentient beings,' Nora Marino from the Legal Action Network for Animals told The Post. 'Courts must realize that and issue decisions accordingly. This decision was an enormous step in the right direction.' 'It serves the interest of justice to recognize that Duke was not a legal 'thing,'' said Christopher Berry from the Nonhuman Rights Project. 'He was a member of the family.' Trevor declined to comment through his attorney. 'Our clients are grateful for the court's decision, which will enable them to obtain justice for their damages,' said the family's attorney, Gregory T. Cerchione. 'Animals are people' cases have been heard in New York before The case will surely face legal review — as 'changing societal norms' Maslow cites have found their way to the state's highest court before. Judge Rowan Wilson is one of two jurists who filed a dissenting opinion with the famous Happy the Elephant case, where the state's top court rejected an effort to sue for human rights claims on behalf of a not-so-happy caged pachyderm at the Bronx Zoo back in 2022. The next year, Wilson was confirmed as chief judge for the state's highest court. For Nan, who will have to testify at the trial to confirm their damages, she sees reminders of the trauma every day. The intersection where Duke was slaughtered is just steps from her home. 'It's so difficult for me,' she says of watching people still plowing through the stop signs. 'Keep your eyes open — stop being distracted,' Nan said. 'You gotta pay attention, it's very sad.'

‘The Buccaneers' Season 2 Is Finally Here—Here's When to Watch
Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy. After a whirlwind first season filled with corsets, clashes, and crushes, The Buccaneers is back on Apple TV+ for round two. Inspired by Edith Wharton's final novel, the period drama picks up with Nan, Jinny, Conchita, Lizzy, and Mabel, no longer as fresh arrivals in England's aristocracy, but as powerful players in it. Now immersed in London society, the American heiresses find themselves navigating new scandals, old flames, and the steep cost of growing up in a world still defined by title and tradition. Nan (Kristine Froseth) is now the Duchess of Tintagel, Conchita (Alisha Boe) has become a household name as Lady Brightlingsea, and Jinny (Imogen Waterhouse) has vanished into infamy after fleeing her marriage with a secret. Season 2 brings back the original ensemble—Froseth, Boe, Josie Totah, Aubri Ibrag, and Waterhouse—alongside Christina Hendricks, Matthew Broome, Guy Remmers, and Barney Fishwick. Among the newcomers is Gossip Girl's Leighton Meester in a yet-undisclosed role, rumored to be central to one of the season's key mysteries. In an interview with ELLE in March Boe spoke about Meester joining the cast, saying, 'She's lovely. We were all really excited to have her join and can't say much about who she is playing, but she is great.' 'The show offers a unique perspective about female friendships because they're going through the same things,' Boe added. 'It is a story about sisterhood, and there are five girls in the main ensemble. You get to see friendships, whether good or bad, turn sour and sweet.' Here's how to stay tuned on the new season. Season 2 features eight episodes in total, just like season 1. After the premiere on June 18, new episodes will roll out weekly on Wednesdays, exclusively on Apple TV+. Each installment usually becomes available to stream at 12 A.M. ET/9 P.M. PT the night before. The full schedule is as follows:
