WE DID IT GUYS! Have some Improv!!!

[@rowanheyd1200]

at this point im half convinced that they just tossed the cast on a boat without a script and told them to be funny

[@nikkospelledlikethat8140]

Okay cast! Here’s a boat, this is your set, here’s some costumes of WILDLY varying historical accuracy, you’re gay, you’re pirates, GO!

[@hvnterro]

and they ate that

[@JacquelinElizabethWrites]

Worked for what we do in the shadows.

[@bvokutos]

i mean it’s definitelyyyy taikas style, i see his influence greatly on this show

We only know there was a script for sure because con hates going off script😂

[@reyes8188]

the fact that con o neil went ooohh daadddy for much much longer then what a in the show is fucking hysterical i love that guy

Had to make sure they had enough footage to make it as awkward as possible

[@grimmaulkin]

i just want them to release the footage so i can cringe for 5 more minutes

Gotta give it to Taika for the little foot touch, that continues to being the most romantic gesture sI've seen and it stills gets me

[@KayeAL4real]

I wonder if he and Rhys and David realize what they've done here...how much it's affecting lives!

[@ouui]

I absolutely love how Nathan said everyone was attentive to look cool in front of Taika on the set, just like Lucius revealed that everyone in the crew was trying to look cool in front of Blackbeard 😂

[@pennifold]

“Because we want our bodies to be…smallerEVErYthNGsfINe” is my favorite. The delivery!

[@jupiterbacchus4223]

I wonder if they'll use any of the deleted footage in season 2

IKR LIKE ITS JUST GONNA SIT ON A COMPUTER FOREVER?? JUST LET ME HAVE IT

[@CollectiveMindFilms]

Ikr!? I was watching a horror film with my partner and he kept making ‘oooh!’ sounds at the sfx footage. I couldn’t stop laughing cuz all I could think about was Izzy’s scene with Black Pete and Lucius 🤣

[@plutototoh]

It is SO sweet that Samba actually made that recipe and shared it for Easter. Everyone on this crew sounds so amazing and fun and kind omg

[@lucky83incredible]

some of my friends made the recipe and posted it to instagram and he liked and replied to their post! so wonderful :)

[@ittixen]

That leg touch literally made that scene for me. It was the difference between "cliffhanger" and "bawling my eyes out".

[@MarbleNarwhal]

can't believe this fandom is making our own featurettes LOL, this is such a fun compilation.

[@irrelevant-lvr]

It’s awesome to see how ofmd not only allows the cast to improvise these little scenes but actually includes them in the show so they can become fan favorite moments :) thank you for sharing, I can’t wait to see more improv in season 2!!!

[@ren-w]

Something that I truly love about OFMD is that so many of the queer characters are represented by queer actors! It's incredibly refreshing to see them represent themselves on screen and know that they truly act from a place of true understanding.

[@ren-w]

Adding on: the utter detail and love that is put into each character on this show, regardless of how many lines they have, is truly beautiful. Hearing about Wee John, Roach, and Jim from the perspective of the actors regarding their many little nuances is so fun and really makes you think about how much potential season two has!

[@madeniquevanwyk]

Shid .... Knowing the foot scene was improv changes everything. Man that scene ... Them just staring at each other, not moving, the pan out to show all the people bustling around them while they just lay there .... The bass line before it builds up as he scoots his foot over ... Man imo that is THE scene. Like the scene to end all scenes™ it's just .... *Starts crying*

[@GayGothPirate]

Knowing the Bar and Grill scene was improvised made Lucius' reaction so much funnier

[@papayadoodlez9994]

That was the BEST bit

[@Dani_1012]

He knew EXACTLY how to react then and it came out perfectly 😂 ! He expressed all of our thoughts at that moment "Oh my God, this is happening" 😂😂

[@karenoien325]

​@@Dani_1012he has definitely been a fan at some point and been there

[@321qwzx123]

Wow can't believe the foot scene, which in my opinion is one of the most iconic ones, was improvised! Such a talented cast

[@namelessghoul746]

I will never *not* laugh at the sandwich hitting Con in the head

[@reckon-it1375]

Dying over Vico going insane with their section of the fuckery

[@leilanyx]

the way the foot touch was improvised and rhys STILL reciprocated the foot touch too. like, no one talks enough abt how stede also moves his foot to touch ed's in response bc everyone always cuts in these compilations before that happens

[@MK-moth]

OF COURSE it ends with the foot touch!!! This was really fun to watch lol I had no idea the quantity of improv scenes and moments, I knew the foot touch and the Blackbeard’s bar and grill were but that was it!

[@rindecision]

It was too perfect of a punctuation to put anywhere else. And those are only the instances I was able to find I'm sure there was many more

[@joannakathleenn]

Omg thank you for including Vico giving the Spanish translations because I just laughed out loud at "I've had it up to here with you and your sing-songy voice."

[@superonion3736]

Its even funnier if you understand spanish

[@Komore_bi]

They included SO many scenes that were improvised! It’s so rare and I love it!!

[@rindecision]

Taika has mentioned in another interview that he doesn't usually like giving actors too much improv room. So that says a lot to his trust in this cast because he started that trend right from the pilot he directed

[@Komore_bi]

@@rindecision That is so cool! Makes me love Taika and the cast even more

[@Miroslava_Ivanova]

I only knew about the Ed and Stede scenes, that were improvised, but I absolutely love that there was so much that made it into the show!!! My favourite has to be We could have made magic!, though, it had me laughing my ass off before I knew what the show was going to hit me with (blackbonnet)! 💜🏳️‍🌈🏴‍☠️

[@enby_clown]

Talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show-stopping, spectacular.

[@Zapporah85]

Vico is unhinged and I love that for them.

[@mosettastone]

I will NEVER👏👏👏 get over how the leg touch was improvised. Dude is a director and they likely did that scene a few times (I think with the song slowed down to half speed if I remember correctly?) and he improvised the button that the scene needed by touching Stede’s foot with his foot and he KNEW EXACTLY the moment he should do it. It’s incredible the camera caught it and even more incredible (IMO) that he didn’t tell ANYONE that he’d done that! Only in post did the editor & Jenkins see that Taika had done that. Just brilliant.

[@Spectralyzed]

I love how they're so excited about the show. It really shows how much love went into it.

[@Thescooped23]

“A dollop of milk and seven sugars” “Wouldn’t be the same without six” Is about the crew of the revenge after Ed escapes without Stede: Lucius, Jim, frenchie, Izzy’s two men, izzy and Ed. The missing ingredient is Stede.

[@rindecision]

that's really cute. Is that actually something the cast mentioned or a head cannon?

[@razarine]

It makes sm sense that blackbeards bar n grill was improvised! I was wondering how something that natural was scripted. God it's so good

[@Hydplant]

Great compilation! I love how much of the show is improvised, not only is it hilarious but it also speaks to the talent of the whole team. Not one person is a miscast.

[@MysticMaiden9496]

I had a feeling the scene where they were talking about the bar & grill was improvised. Sometimes you can just tell because they have such good chemistry and that whole scene was too good to have been scripted. I love those two so fucking much!

[@sophovot5079]

man, episode 1 really is the funniest. beginning to suspect taika's a good comedic director

[@dumbalek6001]
