Rhys Darby Says ‘Flight Of The Conchords’ Reunion Has Been Discussed

New Zealander Rhys Darby made a splash in the U.S. in 2007 for his portrayal of band manager Murray Hewitt in HBO’s Flight of the Conchords, a series that ended after only two short seasons. And while he and his co-stars Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie have all moved on to other projects, the trio might surprise fans one day with a reunion.

“We’re always discussing the sort of things we’d like to do in the future and looking back at the classic things we’ve done,” Darby revealed to Deadline at the Creative Arts Emmy Awards on Saturday, where he presented statuettes in multiple categories. “There will come a time when the world really, really needs [the reunion] and we will suddenly appear.”

Additionally, the actor and comedian said he’d be into reprising the role of Anton the werewolf from the hit indie film What We Do in the Shadows as the series adaptation from his collaborators Clement and Taika Waititi heads into its final season on FX.

“I would love to, of course. I am the ultimate werewolf Anton, leader of the pack,” he shared. “My character is in New Zealand so they have to have some sort of storyline to get me there but I’m always up for anything as long as it’s funny and people get something out of it.”

Darby currently stars in the Max series Our Flag Means Death, the David Jenkins-created comedy set in the early 18th century during the Golden Age of Piracy. He plays the fan-favorite character Stede Bonnet, a wealthy Barbadian landowner looking for a little adventure. Season 2 premiered in October and is pending a new season pickup.
