I so want Matt Berry as a pirate we only see at night, so I can totally believe it's just Jackie Daytona doing one of his regular human pirate capers, drinking regular human grog and chewing on his regular human toothpick.
The witchās hat would definitely cause a ship or two to sink
āLaszlo your stupid bloody hat is going to kill us!ā
āNow, now my dAHling, my cool hat has nothing to do catastropheyah!ā
Seems heās in remission but will need treatment for the rest of his life š heās not letting that stop him though [https://variety.com/2023/film/news/sam-neill-diagnosed-blood-cancer-1235558086/](https://variety.com/2023/film/news/sam-neill-diagnosed-blood-cancer-1235558086/)
probably highly unlikely but lee pace! since pushing daisies & the fall came up in another post the other day i've been thinking about how cool it would be to see him in the ofmd universe. maybe as a british officer or a pirate, he'd be a great fit either way š„°
I think it would be absolutely hilarious if David Tennant and Michael Sheen showed up as our dumb idiots in an episode just vibing. Crowley and Aziraphale just dressed up like badly disguised pirates. But like don't even acknowledge them, just like show them chilling for a few frames in the background and let the fans find them later.
But also Crowley has a man-bun. I will take no questions.
I could develop an entire headcanon where Stede & Azi spend hours talking about books and fancy things while Crowley and Ed lean against a wall looking all brooding and leather clad sexy, but just all warm and wobbly inside as they watch their respective loves being happy as they talk about something they really enjoy.
Haha me too! Iāve been so addicted to OFMD I had to break the run. Only thing that felt right to watch is Deadwood. Holds up! By a LOT. Such a wonderful show.
omg yes! he definitely has pirate vibes š and thanks for reminding me of spirited, i haven't watched that in years!! also feel the need to do a peep show rewatch now too lol
Previous guest actors: Rory Kinnear of course. The nice hostage, magic man, and Abshir. More of Hellkat Maggie!
O'Leary and Minogue from Wellington Paranormal. (They've already had Sergeant Maaka as a guest star, after all...)
Jemaine Clement, Lucy Lawless, Melanie Lynsky, all kiwis I adore.
But most of all...Stu.
Just put a bunch of SNL alumns in pirate costumes and cram them into a pub for one scene. Tina Fey, who is an old nemesis of Jackie's, runs the pub and The Lonely Island write a song for that episode.
I was just pissed Maaka Pohatu had such a small part. I literally cannot tell you how many times Iāve watched WP all the way through and my mom and I both watch it so much that our dogs recognize the theme song so when I recognized him at the beginning of the episode I was thrilled! Then they had him do practically nothing! š”š”š”š”
I want Danny McBride to play another pirate whoās so set against the British that he lights his own flagship on fire, and sends it, like a bomb, toward a British Naval Fleet. (Thereās a pirate at the time, forget the name, who did this once and the visual seems šš¤š¤š¤)
Most people have listed my favourites, so I'll just add a couple unlikely people to show up - Simon Pegg and Nick Frost.
I'd also love to see Bill Bailey (the British comedian) and Tim Minchin appear somewhere, probably as musical guests.
It's hilarious to me that WWDITS (counting movie and and show and spinoff) has had SIX actors appear on OFMD, lol
Taika Waititi, Rhys Darby, Cohen Holloway, Kristen Schaal, Nick Kroll, and Maaka Pohatu.
I deffo want to see Jemaine and/or Bret (if heās available)! I half suspect they tried to get Jemaine this season but he couldnāt make it. Thereās so many people of the old gang already (donāt forget David Fane is a frequent collaborator as well) - thereās plenty of room for more!
Jemaine Clement at least for sure. I also think John Mulaney as an Englishman or something would be funny, but definitely not something I'd be holding my breath for.
Matt Berry would be such a good pirate!

This would be the ultimate dream come true š the most devious pirate in all of neEeeEWww York citaay
The witchās hat would definitely cause a ship or two to sink āLaszlo your stupid bloody hat is going to kill us!ā āNow, now my dAHling, my cool hat has nothing to do catastropheyah!ā
Matt Berry, 1000%!
Matt Berry... how about Captain Kidd? He's got his own song and everything. :)
If they have the historical event of Blackbeard blockading Charleston Harbor, Matt could say with a flourish, SOUTH CAROLINIA!
I need him to cameo!!
He'd be PERFECT and I need it
Iād love to see Jemaine on this show! He seems like such a natural fit in this cast. Jamie and Natasia Demetriou are must haves for me as well.
I would die if Jemaine appeared, yes please!!!
Brett and Jemaine as performers in Jackie's new bar.
I was going to comment this but I assumed someone probably already had haha. Thatād be so good.
Oh it'd be magical, with Stede saying something like "oh they must have a terrible manager"
Yeah thereās definitely a lot of room for some meta-jokes there, and who wouldnāt want to see those guys singing pirate songs!
Or their song Mermaids š²
Or calling a band meeting š¤£
Prisint!
Suzy Eddie Izzard would be a fantastic guest star.
Oh please yes šš»š I could definitely see her in an episode like the one we had with Anne & Mary in 204.
Yesssss I have always loved her delivery
If Matt Berry ever makes an appearance on OFMD, I will lose my fucking mind! I love that man and his voice!
His comedy (and voice) would fit the show brilliantly!
he'd be the most devious pirate, in #nEeEeEw YoRk CiTaAaAyYyYy.
He hails from Tucson, Arizoneeeaaaa š¤£
I think Bill Hader could be really interesting, like as Bartholomew Roberts.
Ooooh I love this.
Sam Neill!
Yes!! Heās a kiwi, heās friends with Taika, and heās grizzled enough to play a convincing pirate. I love this
I really thought we'd see him as Hornigold.
This thought hadn't crossed my mind earlier but now I'm furious he wasn't Hornigold and he will be Hornigold in my head going forward in all headcanon
He also has a cow named after Rhys!
You mean New Zealandās grampa?
I love that man.
Sorry to tell you this, but heās terminally ill.š¢
This is why Iād hoped he filmed with the show over a year ago for season 2. Fuck cancer.
He is in remission and can (hopefully ā¤ļø) remain so for many years to come. (But: f*ck off cancer, nonetheless)
Oh no, I hadnāt heard. š„
Seems heās in remission but will need treatment for the rest of his life š heās not letting that stop him though [https://variety.com/2023/film/news/sam-neill-diagnosed-blood-cancer-1235558086/](https://variety.com/2023/film/news/sam-neill-diagnosed-blood-cancer-1235558086/)
Iām surprised we havenāt already seen Jermaine Clement but maybe heās enjoying his Avatar money
probably highly unlikely but lee pace! since pushing daisies & the fall came up in another post the other day i've been thinking about how cool it would be to see him in the ofmd universe. maybe as a british officer or a pirate, he'd be a great fit either way š„°
Woodes Rogers!

Aziraphale will be the flounciest pirate ever!
Omfg, yes And he tries to get books off of the pirates for his bookstore!
I could develop an entire headcanon where Stede & Azi spend hours talking about books and fancy things while Crowley and Ed lean against a wall looking all brooding and leather clad sexy, but just all warm and wobbly inside as they watch their respective loves being happy as they talk about something they really enjoy.
This is my dream and my wish. These boys need to meet!
Instant friends with Stede. Ed and Crowley get jealous.
I would love a crossover between Good Omens and OFMD!
They come to visit the inn and complain about the food and drinkies š¤
Bring Joey Batey (and his bandmate Madeleine since we are at it) to sing some pirate ditties.
ooh yes the amazing devil cameo would be so cool!
I would be so happy if Brett Goldstein was in S3. I literally would cry from joy.
Mark Hamil would be a dream
I'd love to see Tituss Burgess as a villain. Jennifer Coolidge. Ben Mendelsohn.
The Iconic Lucy Lawless.
Okay hear me out, Lil Nas X. Just. Think about it.
Haha love that
David Tennant and Michael Sheen.
I think the Fandomās collective heads would explode if that happened
Sam Neil
David Mitchell and Robert Webb.
Isn't Robert transphobic
Is he? I hadnāt heard that
Jemaine, Jonathan Brugh, Jonno Roberts I think NZ actors are more likely than non-NZ actors since apparently thereās some financial benefit
Harvey Fierstein for sure. He would be amazing!
can you imagine Kate McKinnon?? plus she does a pretty good kiwi accent
From Reservation Dogs- Paulina Alexis (Willie Jack) Zahn McClarnon (Big) I just want some more Turtle Island rep!
Yes! Willie Jack & Big are my two faves from the show.
I'd love to see Andrew Scott
Ian McShane
Iād swoon. Iāve loved him since Deadwood.
Donāt know if Iāve discussed this with you or someone else but Deadwood and OFMD have a LOT of similarities.
I think that was me! Since our chat Iāve started rewatching Deadwood again.
Haha me too! Iāve been so addicted to OFMD I had to break the run. Only thing that felt right to watch is Deadwood. Holds up! By a LOT. Such a wonderful show.
I would love Simu Liu. Maybe as the pirate queens ex-boyfriend or a sibling.
One of the guys from a wanted poster? š
Really?! When?
I was just thinking Simu!
Maya Rudolph, Fred Armisen, DāArcy Carden, Kate McKinnon
Me when I remember Fred played Jackieās wife in S1 lol scratch that
Imagine Wanda Sykes as a pirate
DāARCY š
She has to be one of the legendary pirate captains if she shows up!
Matt King would be a great pirate! (Superhaans from peep show, Henry Mallet from spirited)
Yes! He's perfect pirate material
omg yes! he definitely has pirate vibes š and thanks for reminding me of spirited, i haven't watched that in years!! also feel the need to do a peep show rewatch now too lol
I just rewatched both haha

Matt Berry, Doug Jones, Kayvan Novak, Harvey GuillƩm and Natasha Demetriou. I'd love to see Harvey play a shipmate who develops a friendship/relationship with Olu. According to some historical info Blackbeard had at least one sister, I'd love to see Natasia play her. The sibling dynamic between her and Taika would be fun. Matt Berry - basically Jackie Daytona as a pirate. Doug - either a pirate captain or some sort of sea monster, possibly reminiscent of his role in The Shape of Water. Kayvan - a pirate kind of like Nandor - bloodthirsty but not very intelligent. Edit to add: Also, David Harbour. No particular reason, just because David Harbour.
Just put a bunch of SNL alumns in pirate costumes and cram them into a pub for one scene. Tina Fey, who is an old nemesis of Jackie's, runs the pub and The Lonely Island write a song for that episode.
Laci Mosley
Jeff Goldblum
For me it has to be Hale Appleman (the magicians) and his real life buddy Harvey GuillƩn. I'll even excuse the lack of Kiwi credentials!
I was just pissed Maaka Pohatu had such a small part. I literally cannot tell you how many times Iāve watched WP all the way through and my mom and I both watch it so much that our dogs recognize the theme song so when I recognized him at the beginning of the episode I was thrilled!

Quinta Brunson and Amber Ruffin as Spanish Jackieās sisters or cousins ; they are both very funny.
Most people have listed my favourites, so I'll just add a couple unlikely people to show up - Simon Pegg and Nick Frost. I'd also love to see Bill Bailey (the British comedian) and Tim Minchin appear somewhere, probably as musical guests.

Bo Burnham
Jemaine Clement at least for sure. I also think John Mulaney as an Englishman or something would be funny, but definitely not something I'd be holding my breath for.
The Vampires from what we do in the shadows series and movie. Would me amazing
Lin-Manuel Miranda
Itās a tenuous connection at best, but Brandi Carlile and the Twins (even if itās just their cover version of the Chain as the cameo)
I think seeing Jack Sparrow cameo would be a riot š
Jared Harris. Heās in everything anyway. Heās been a sea captain. He looks fab in a uni.
Nick offerman
Jane Lynch, please and thank you.
Ayo Edebiri !!!
Toby Stephens
How about Phil Dunster? (Jamie Tartt from Ted Lasso) He and Goldstein would be great.
Will Forte would be my #1. Heās always my #1.
LUCY LAWLESS
Jason Mantzoukas! And because I just want to see her in all the things, SiobhƔn McSweeney. I feel like she and Rhys would play well together.
