The Darby photo rule: if it's not 🤏👓, then it's 👍
Joanna Page and Rhys Darby in front of a Christmas tree. He's giving a dorky thumbs up and we love him for it.

Some people like their humps a bit gritty - I'm not one to judge... but this is better 😁
Rhys Darby (who is always high quality even if his photos aren't) wearing a white shirt and dark jacket in a bar. His belt is just visible and so is his tum peeking deliciously over it.

Just realised we'll know *exactly* when Rhys starts filming #Jumanji as it'll be bye bye beard! I doubt they'll dye his hair since the hat stays on but the face fuzz will have to go!
(Please take this news as the happy/tragic occurrence it is, depending on your preference.)

UK Fantasy author Jo de-Lancey on who they would most like to have breakfast with: "Rhys Darby. I’ve seen him live twice, and both times I laughed myself a six-pack. I love how his stand-up routine is all story based. He’s so entertaining and such a unique talent."

A screencap of article text in Q&A format between Authority Magazine and Jo de-Lancey that reads as follows: (in bold) "We are very blessed that some of the biggest names in Entertainment, Business, VC funding, and Sports read this column. Is there a person in the world, or in the US, with whom you would love to have a private breakfast or lunch, and why? He or she might just see this, especially if we both tag them :-)" (in plain text): "I’d have to say Rhys Darby. I’ve seen him live twice, and both times I laughed myself a six-pack. I love how his stand-up routine is all story based. He’s so entertaining and such a unique talent. I first saw him in Flight of the Conchords as Murray, he was so sweet and such a funny, yet useless, manager for the band. Breakfast with him would be a real laugh, no doubt I’d end up spitting my coffee all over the table."

I know what the people want. Unfortunately that's never what my brain delivers, so we have this instead...

A photo manip of Jumanji characters Nigel Billingsley (Rhys Darby) and Jurgen the Brutal (Rory McCann) staring at each other. Above their heads is the text "love brutally" with "love" in red and "brutally" in white, similar to the style of the love actually poster.
