Rhys and his The Americans co-star/wife Keri Russell will serve as executive producers on FX's adaptation of Dark Horse's Wyrd, which will be written by Up in the Air screenwriter Sheldon Turner. "Wyrd is the story of the ultimate immigrant, an extraterrestrial in exile," according to Deadline. "It centers on Wyrd (Rhys) who was sent to earth in an attempt to better understand humanity.
