Neil Patrick Harris will star in Netflix’s A Series Of Unfortunate Events

Introducing Endless Mode: A New Games & Anime Site from Paste
Having recently freed up some manic, borderline shrill time and energy from his busy schedule, Neil Patrick Harris has signed on for his next TV project: starring as the villainous Count Olaf in Netflix’s upcoming adaptation of Lemony Snicket’s A Series Of Unfortunate Events. Harris will once again be channeling his inner hammy bad guy, playing a role that originally had Jim Carrey stomping around and improvising like a lunatic dinosaur in the 2004 film version of Daniel Handler’s pseudonymously penned books.
