I just realized I was grieving the loss of a friend more than I thought I did while watching Platonic. Cried a bit about it and now I'm happy I processed it. Highly recommend the show as a funny and sensitive at deeper friendships and how they (don't) fit in a couple-focused society.

Chibi versions of Ed and Stede as mermen; they're swimming, holding hands, Stede (with an orange tail) is swimming behind Ed (with a black tail) and Ed is slightly turned back towards him. Both have scales shaped as a heart on their butts

HIS FLAG MEANS JOY!

Werewolf, lizard man, mermaid, gay pirate... Our Flag Means Death has earned Rhys Darby a devoted following. Now he's headed back to the stage for a stand-up tour.

DNA: You have a very impressive list of credits: Flight Of The Conchords, Star Trek:
Strange New Worlds, Night Court, The X-Files, Hot In Cleveland, Modern Family, How I Met Your Mother, Jumanji... Does one experience stand out?
Rhys Darby: Luckily, and weirdly, at the beginning of my career, I got to work with Jim Carrey in Yes Man. It was the first movie lever did and, being into comedy, he was an inspiration to me. Working with the best straightaway throws you in the deep end, and I was like, "Wow! I can take on anything now".
The next movie I did was The Boat That Rocked starring Philip Seymour Hoffman. I worked with amazing craftspeople right from those early days. Believe me, I'm still pinching myself.
I wonder how that little boy from Pakuranga, New Zealand gets to do this! It feels like I've won some sort of competition.

"It wasn't like, this guy's gay or this person is non-binary. They just were, and no one cared."

You've even been in The Simpsons.
Yes! I do know I've got the voice and a weird vibe about me that's fun for cartoons. One role that stands out would be The X-Files. Being into the paranormal myself, I couldn't believe I got a part on that show. It was so perfect playing a lizard who becomes human. It felt like it was written for me.
You also played a werewolf in What We Do In The Shadows - that's a werewolf, not a
"swear-wolf"!
[Laughs] That was fun. I do a lot of work with Taika Waititi, who's a friend of mine. He and Jemaine Clement wrote, directed and starred in that film, which was all improvised. There was a script, but we weren't allowed to look at it. For that "swear wolf" scene, we were told we were the werewolf gang, the others were the vampire gang, and we were going to meet in the middle,

like a West Side Story situation, and see what goes down.
Our Flag Means Death is a massive gay favourite. You've said that playing Stede Bonnet was one of the most challenging roles of your career.
Stede is not a two-dimensional comedy character. This guy has a meaningful background that brought him to this ridiculous adventure. It's not just about him finding himself, but also finding what love truly is.
I knew there would be pirate ships, and I got excited about the dress-ups, but I also knew I was playing someone from history. I read about the character to find as much as I could, and leven did a sailing course to make sure I knew how to sail - even though he didn't.
Once we got into it, I knew there was going to be a relationship between Blackbeard and Stede. It wasn't divulged just how deep it would go.
How did you prepare?
I read up on what really happened and then threw all that out because even that is just hearsay. There isn't a hell of a lot written about what went on on those ships - but there were certainly a lot of men! I was elegantly shoved into some beautiful garments, and once I put those heeled shoes on I was like, "Wow, okay, now I feel like Stede. I know who Steed is!"
He is an actual historic figure; a wealthy land owner who decided to become a pirate!
Yes, Stede made a major decision, a midlife crisis if you will. It doesn't matter what age you are; at some point, you get the balls to say, "I'm going to now be my true self". That, along with the beautiful love representation in the show, made it so wonderful for people, especially the queer community. It unfolded organically. It wasn't like, "Oh, this guy's gay or this person is non-binary". They just were, and no one cared
- all wrapped up in a beautiful, silly pirate show for the world to see our point of love being love.
Have you played other gay roles?
I felt my character in A Series Of Unfortunate Events was gay. I was Don Johnson's special guy. It was fun, and Don's a great dude.
When it…
