Legendary pirate Blackbeard is coming to Black Sails Season 3, but if the video above is any indication, he could be bad news for Capt. Vane.

The pirate, we learn in the exclusive clip above, has a connection to Vane in that he was once a father figure of sorts. Upon his arrival, however, he will prove to be a "force to be reckoned with," according to executive producer Dan Shotz.

As Ray Stevenson, who plays the bearded brute, puts it, he will see a pretty irresistible "opportunity," which sounds fittingly menacing.

Season 3 of Black Sails premieres Jan. 23 on Starz.
