The King's Pirate is a 1967 American pirate film directed by Don Weis and starring Doug McClure, Jill St. John and Guy Stockwell.[1] It is a remake of the 1952 film Against All Flags.[2]

Plot[edit]

A British naval officer volunteers for a dangerous mission to infiltrate the base of pirates who threaten shipping off Madagascar.

Cast[edit]

Production[edit]

Paul Wayne rewrote the script for Against All Flags adding some new characters, notably Zucco (played by Kurt Kaznar). Doug McClure was making The Virginian at the time but was written out of the show to allow him to make the movie. Filming started late October 1966.[3][4]

Female lead Jill St John was under contract to Universal at the time. It was her sixth picture that year after Fame is the Name of the Game, How I Spent My Summer Vacation, The Liquidator, Eight on a Lam, and Banning. She took fencing lessons for the role.[5] Filming ended in December.[6]
