Jack Black discussed the future of Tenacious D after band partner, Kyle Gass made a controversial remark about Donald Trump’s attempted assassination in July, prompting Black to cancel the duo’s tour.

“We need to take a break. Everybody needs a break sometime,” Black told Variety‘s Marc Malkin at the “Borderlands” premiere on Tuesday night. “And we’ll be back.”

Asked if he’s talked to Gass since the tour’s cancellation, Black replied, “Yeah, we’re friends. That hasn’t changed. These things take time sometimes… And we’ll be back when it feels right.”

Black showed off the titular magical guitar pick from the 2006 comedy film “Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny.”

“I was blindsided by what was said at the show on Sunday,” Black said in a statement at the time. “I would never condone hate speech or encourage political violence in any form.”

On the horizon, Black stars alongside Cate Blanchett, Kevin Hart and Jamie Lee Curtis in the sci-fi action comedy Borderlands.

Black voices Claptrap, a general purpose robot featured in the role-playing video game series that the movie is based on.

“It feels like it was meant to be, in the stars, in the galaxy, in the universe,” Black said of being a part of the “Borderlands” movie. “I do often think about the multiverse — how, like, there’s an infinite amount of different realities, and how lucky I am to be in this reality. This is the best Jack Black reality.”
