  He’s an actor and comedian from New Zealand. Off the top of my head, he’s been in:

  • “Flight of the Concords”
  • “Voltron”
  • “What We Do In the Shadows” the movie, not sure about the series
  • "Our Flag Means Death"

  I’m pretty excited by the idea of him showing up in SNW. My guess would be him playing a Mudd/Okana type figure.

    I’m wondering if he’ll be playing Roger Korby. During the panel, they said that they wouldn’t confirm or deny certain rumours that have apparently been floating around.

      If he’s going to be an extant character, I could see him as Trelene.

  He played the Gentleman Pirate in the show Our Flag Means Death, he’s also the manager in the show flight of the conchords.

      He’s amazing in anything he does, I hope he’s gonna chew the fuck out of the scenery in the trek episode.

  My absolute favorite Rhys Darby appearance is X-Files Season 10 Episode 3, “Mulder and Scully Meet the Were-Monster”

  Consider me excited.
