Thoughts on Queen Narissa & Nathaniel

Narissa and Nathaniel appear like the comedic villain-duo like Kronk and Yzma (the beautiful evil mastermind and the stupid, ugly sidekick).

But there is SO MUCH MORE to them!

Obviously Nathaniel is truly, madly, deeply in love with Narissa. That's actually quite sad when you think about how cold-hearted she is and how badly she treats him. She abuses his will to do literally everything for her to make him do things he doesn't want to because Nathaniel isn't all that cold-hearted. And yet he hasn't got a choice to stand up against her since he knows she has power over him not only because he depends on her.

Given that they are both from our world Nathaniel might also stick around Narissa because he probably hopes to still be able to safe her. He might knew (and loved) her before she became evil, making it even harder for him to stand against her. He was forced to watch Narissa turning bad and couldn't do anything.

Narissa might got cursed when she married the former king of Andalasia with the same curse Giselle gets cursed when wishing for a fairytale life in "Disenchanted". When Giselle wishes for a fairytale life, she is Morgan's stepmother and Narissa had become Edward's stepmother by marrying the king.

Narissa sends Endward troll-hunting every morning to distract him from finding a girl and marrying in order to remain in power. Like the book in the picture says: "She lived in fear that one day her stepson would marry and she would lose her throne forever." That might sound selfish of her but given that she is from the real world where she once gave her whole life up, leaving family and friends behind who probably assume that she's dead makes it less selfish. Even if she left no friends and family behind, she still has been gone for a very long time in which New York changed a lot. One way or another, she has no home to return to. The throne is all she got. She is not from Andalasia. So if she loses the throne she'll probably be kicked out of Andalasia because there is no need for her anymore. So of course the idea of probably ending up in a New York where everything has changed with nothing except her clothes and nowhere to return to frightens her so she does everything to remain in the throne.

Nathaniel has zero self-confidence since he considers himself ugly. He knows he is not as handsome as Prince Edward making him the ugly guy in Andalasia. And he hates himself for that. In the motel he realizes he needs to love himself if he wants Narissa to love him, because how should she be able to love him if he even can't love himself? The thing is he thinks there is nothing to love about him so he assumes Narissa will never love him what ends him up in a bar. You can see he has been crying when on top of all this Narissa appears in his drink and scolds him for being unsuccessful in his attempts to kill Giselle.

She also calls him "worthless" when she finds him in New York.

When Robert wakes up Giselle with a true love's kiss, Nathaniel realizes everything is lost for Narissa and that it's too late for her. He might sees that no one can save her and turns down on her. He then finds the courage to stand up against her and threat her with the sword. This must be hard for him since he is letting Narissa go, knowing she is not the woman anymore that she used to be. Narissas death is tragic yet a mercy since her life wouldn't have been worth living after all that has happened at the ball.

Nathaniel, however, moves on and becomes a bestselling-author by writing a book about Narissa ("My Royal Pain: Vanquishing the Evil Queen Within").

Christ is Living in Me

I have been crucified with Christ and the life I live now is not my own Christ is living in me

I still live my human life, but it is a life of faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave Himself for me

I have been crucified with Christ and the life I live now is not my own Christ is living in me

I will not treat God's gracious gift as pointless If justice is available through the law, then Christ died to no purpose at all

In Wake of Christmas Jam Cancelation, Warren Haynes Preps Soulshine Benefit

- Fundraiser is Nov. 24 at Madison Square Garden

Co-headliners Dave Matthews Band, Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats and Goose will join the Warren Haynes Band for the latter’s Soulshine benefit concert.

Scheduled for Nov. 24 at Madison Square Garden, Soulshine will aid recovery efforts in Florida and western North Carolina after hurricanes Helene and Milton ravaged the areas.

Haynes announced the benefit after calling off his annual Christmas Jam concert in North Carolina due to storm damage that “has truly devastated me,” the guitarist said in a statement.

“Every year, it is my honor to host the Christmas Jam and give back to the community there, but this year, we need to do things a bit differently,” he said.

Trey Anastasio, Mavis Staples, Robert Randolph, Joe Russo, Trombone Shorty, Susan Tedeschi and Derek Trucks are also on the bill as “very special guests,” with more to be announced.

Our Flag Means Death Season 2: Exclusive First Look

Vanity Fair joins Stede, Blackbeard, and the rest of the cast on set in New Zealand for an exclusive early look at the second season, debuting on Max in October.

BY SARAH CATHERALL (AUGUST 24, 2023)

Only the fans of Our Flag Means Death can determine whether they’ll be satisfied with the show’s second season, which debuts on Max in October. But if you ask Fernando Frias, who directed three of the season’s episodes, he sounds pretty confident: “If my life depended on saying whether it’s yes or no, I would say yes.’’

It’s December 8, 2022, and the principal actors on Our Flag Means Death as well as the 800-plus extras and crew members have three days left of their three-month shoot for season two. Things are starting to get emotional. “You’ve been the most amazing crew I’ve ever worked with,” says one actor as he wraps his final scene. Frias says it’s like leaving “a long summer camp,” adding, “it’s like a family.”

The series created by David Jenkins was a surprise breakout hit when it debuted in the spring of 2022, building a fiercely devoted fan base with its silly yet emotional deadpan, and defiantly queer take on the adventures of real 18th-century pirates. Everyone involved in Our Flag Means Death is eager to preserve the surprises in store for season two, which kicks off with gentleman pirate Stede Bonnet (Rhys Darby) and softhearted bad boy Blackbeard (Taika Waititi) ruefully separated after finally realizing their love for each other at the end of season one.

It’s “going to be unexpected and surprising, but also very pleasurable and satisfying for those who like the show,” promises executive producer Garrett Basch. It “doesn’t follow the expected route,” teases Con O’Neill, who plays Blackbeard’s devoted enforcer, Izzy. All that means is we’re not at liberty to share too much about what happened on set that day, which included emotional conversations, new cast members, banter with the Kiwi crew, and some seriously killer costumes.

But these exclusive new images give a hint of what is in store. There are fresh faces—Minnie Driver will guest-star as the real-life Irish pirate Anne Bonny, and Ruibo Qian joins the cast as the mysterious merchant Susan—and a lot of New Zealand actors and locations, now that the production has decamped across the Pacific.

“The viewers will see the scope of their world has expanded based on the fact we’re able to get to these amazing locations within a short travel time,” says executive producer Antoine Douaihy. “You will notice a marked difference between the two seasons in terms of the scope and the scale.’’

There will be plenty of familiar faces too, of course. On set that day in Kumeu, New Zealand, a rural area about 20 miles outside of Auckland, are Waititi and Darby along their fellow returning cast members O’Neill, Vico Ortiz (Jim), Kristian Nairn (Wee John), Joel Fry (Frenchie), Matthew Maher (Black Pete), Leslie Jones (Spanish Jackie), Samson Kayo (Oluwande), Ewen Bremner (Nathaniel Buttons), Samba Schutte (Roach), and more. New onboard are two Kiwi actors, Madeleine Sami (most recently of the Australian mystery-comedy Deadloch), and Samoan-born Anapela Polataivao. And there’s one returning figure impossible to miss on the soundstage: The Revenge, the stately ship that Blackbeard—a.k.a. Ed—commandeered at the end of season one. In real life it was carefully transported across the Pacific Ocean from the show’s original Los Angeles soundstages.

The Revenge is vast and impressive, much larger in real life than it appears onscreen. But it’s not the only stunning scenery in store. There are around 50 sets involved in the production of season two, including the 30-acre forest behind the Kumeu Film Studio, Piha Beach, and the wild, black-sand Bethells Beach.

Waititi, who also executive produces the series, was part of the push to film season two in his native New Zealand. “Taika is an extraordinary talent and what’s really great about him with his international success is he’s remained very committed to New Zealand and very loyal to our industry,” says Annie Murray, the CEO of the New Zealand Film Commission. “The beauty of filming in New Zealand is that you can find incredible varied locations within a very short driving distance. [And] when you get to those locations you can turn your camera in any direction.’’

The scope of the season is very evident back on set, as well. There’s a whole other pirate ship in addition to The Revenge, plus sets for a floating market, Stede’s cabin (empty when we visit), and the Republic of Pirates first glimpsed in season one. Behind the scenes it’s a maze of wardrobe, wig rooms, and dressing rooms. In another facility, props are stacked on shelves, ready to be taken away to storage as soon as filming wraps—vases, plates, antique furniture, and piles of mannequins replicating dead bodies which were used in one of the battle scenes.

Costume designer Gypsy Taylor joined the production this season and has designed hundreds of costumes, checking with everyone on set that day to make sure everything is in place before cameras roll. Taylor says each of the principals have six to eight looks in this season, and that every item—every leather belt, wig, bit of jewelry, even a mermaid tail—has been made by her 60-strong workshop. The costumes this season have a “Mad Max, ‘streets of New York’ feel,” says Taylor. “David Jenkins was keen to give the series a cool rock-and-roll vibe…so we had these rock-and-roll elements with an 18th-century twist.’’ As is evidenced in the image below, even Stede’s crew winds up with some unexpected new looks over the course of the season.

Wherever it is these Revenge crew members have found themselves, there’s something that surprised them. COURTESY OF NICOLA DOVE/MAX.

Two armies are part of the action in season two, all of them needing elaborate costumes—around 150 Chinese pirates and a fleet of 100 navy officers. Even the breeches are in studded black leather, and punkified. Says Taylor, “The theory behind their costumes is they would’ve stolen from other pirates…. Although our Wee John has started to become quite the seamstress, so he’s knitting this season.’’ True enough: Nairn is wearing what looks like a hand-knit sweater on set that day.

Wee John isn’t the only pirate getting into crafts. Nancy Hennah, who has managed the hair and makeup for both seasons, points to Blackbeard’s wig—made in London—and tattoos as Waititi works on set. With 14 tattoos on his right arm and 10 on the left, plus plenty of scars, he needs at least an hour in the makeup chair. “Taika wanted most of the tattoos to look like he’d done them himself,” Hennah says. “Like on slow days on the boat when there’s nothing much to do, they sit around and give each other tattoos.”

She gives a hint of a storm in one episode: “One of the hardest days here in makeup was when they were caught in a storm on the back of the boat. [The cast] were saturated for a whole day, which caused havoc with things like tattoos and hair, wigs and beards.’’

By mid afternoon, Con O’Neill is taking a break in his trailer. He pulls his slim, leather trousered legs up to a corner seat. A candle blazes on the kitchen bench as the veteran actor talks about the physical endurance required during the shoot. “It’s been frantic,’’ he says. His signature gray hair barely moves, frozen by the team of hair stylists who arrived on set around sunrise. (All interviews with actors in this story took place before the SAG-AFTRA strike). 

Izzy “goes on a remarkable journey” this season, says O’Neill. “He understands what love is and whom he’s in love with.’’ On a series featuring a variety of joyful queer relationships—not just Stede and Blackbeard, but Black Pete and Lucius (Nathan Foad), Jim and Oluwande, and Spanish Jackie and her many husbands—Izzy’s unyieldingly straitlaced devotion makes him an odd man out. By the end of season one many fans speculated that Izzy was driven by something at the intersection of love and obsession. This season, according to O’Neill, Izzy gets even deeper into that dynamic. “Physically it’s been quite demanding, and also emotionally it’s been quite demanding to be playing a man enraged by unrequited love, who’s basically a hopeless romantic, and to be able to play all that and also remember that this is fundamentally a comedy.’’

Though the show is often warm and fuzzy when it comes to feelings—one of Stede’s mottos in season one is that when faced with challenges, “we talk it through as a crew”—Izzy represents the darker, more violent side of pirate life, which the show doesn’t shy away from either. “What I love about this show is it does allow itself to swing between the two,” O’Neill says. “We’re almost operatic in our darkness at times, and then we swing back to the sweetness of the simplicity of the love of our two guys. It’s been challenging just to get the tone right.”

“We’ve gone further this season than we did last season with those tones,” he continues. “So sometimes it’s quite interesting to remind yourself that you have to take your foot out of the tragedy—literally, your foot—and put it back into the comedy.”

With a season behind them to build the dynamics between the characters and the actors alike, on set there’s been “a lot more spontaneity and script revisions based on what’s happening day-to-day,” says Douaihy. “The cast are so comfortable with one another and their characters, that they move through it naturally.’’

The way O’Neill puts it, they’ve also built trust with Jenkins, their showrunner, to follow some bigger swings. “I don’t think David Jenkins is ever going to follow an expected route. I’d hate to drive in a car with him.” Thinking of the fans who will greet the series when the show returns in October, O’Neill continues, “I think they’re going to appreciate what [Jenkins] wants. Season two does stick to the original premise that we created in season one, which is take it on to other levels.’’

One character leveling up in a major way this season is Jim, the quiet badass (there are knives involved) played by the nonbinary actor and activist Vico Ortiz. “Jim really evolves in season two,” they say. “They’re a bit more chatty and a bit more conversational…. Most of the first season you see Jim in disguise, hiding, but in this one you see them a bit more [thinking,] Oh, this is my chosen family, and I feel good. There’s a bit more zaniness and a bit more softness.’’

Like O’Neill and several other castmates, Oritz had attended their share of fan events by the time season two began filming, and the entire cast and crew returned to the high seas with a strong sense that their show had taken on a life of its own. “It’s so beautiful to see that people are finding community within the fan base. It’s about creating spaces where we feel safe and seen, and it’s so great to see that so many people watch the show and feel validated in their experiences, whatever that may be,” says Ortiz. “A lot of people that watch the show are like, “Yeah, I’m a guy and it’s good to see all these dudes being vulnerable.’ We can just shake up [ideas about gender].’’

Ruibo Qian joins the cast this season as Susan, a merchant with secrets of her own. COURTESY OF NICOLA DOVE/MAX.

Basch admits the fan following surprised some of the team, “but it made a lot of sense” too. After years of television shows and movies that built up the potential of queer romance only to stop short, Basch thinks the fervor for Our Flag Means Death “says that shows in the mainstream aren’t delivering that promise or that setup, and we have. That’s really why the fans have gone wild for it.”

That promise, it’s safe to say, is kept in season two, and then some. On set that day in December, for example, there was a major romantic moment between two key characters. But we’d risk Ed Teach’s wrath if we told you any more.

Narissa, Nathaniel & the real world - theory -

Around the time "Disenchanted" came out, I watched a video about Queen Narissa on Youtube and found this comment under the video:

And a comment replying to this comment really made me put on my thinking cap:

And although I liked the theory and it all made sense to me, as well it really hit me like a lightning when I rewatched "Enchanted" recently. The signs had all been there, I had noticed them but this time I really realized them. And I thought: "Yes, of course! It all makes so much sense!"

Now let's have a closer look on it since I love theories:

1. Cars

Not only does she know what a car is, she also knows she has to stop them with her magic to not be run over. You can see on the picture she uses the crosswalk.

2. Melodramatic

She knows words like "melodramatic" that Edward doesn't seem to know (yet this could also be him just never heard of that word)

3. Interaction with people

Narissa knows she has to keep things low-key. When Giselle passed out after taking a bite from her poisened apple, Narissa tells everyone Giselle just fainted and tries to calm people down because she knows that's the most effective tactic to get away. Also she knows that the people from New York don't know magic so saying that Giselle fainted is easier to explain than poisened apples.

4. A land without happy endings

Narissa knows exactly what she's doing when she pushes Giselle down that wishing well. She knows it's not just gonna take her out of Andalasia but it'll also slowly "defairytalize" Giselle when she stays in the real world.

5. The two baddies

Everyone in Andalasia is well-meaning, kindhearted and a ray of sunshine. Everyone except... Nathaniel and Narissa! This is of course also because they are the villains, but still...

Speaking of Nathaniel.

Well, I think it's because he is from the real world, too! Narissa either brang him along or he came searching for her. That's why he hangs around her so much and is so loyal to her. They're from the same world. Literally.

And because he's insanely in love with Narissa.

Wooh, a lot to read! Now I think I'll gonna leave it for now. Let me know what y'all think about it!
