Based on the internationally best-selling series of books by Lemony Snicket (aka Daniel Handler) and starring Neil Patrick Harris, Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events recounts the tragic tale of the Baudelaire orphans – Violet, Klaus, and Sunny – whose evil guardian Count Olaf will stop at nothing to get his hands on their inheritance. You can finally check out NPH in the latest trailer for the Netflix series below!
I felt the movie of the same name was okay, if only feeling like classic Tim Burton-lite, so I’m curious to see if 8 episodes of this story will make me change my tune. It’s going to be hard for NPH to contend with Jim Carrey, but he looks up to the task. If anything, Netflix has proved to be the perfect outlet for stories that suit the home-watching experience.
All 8 episodes of A Series of Unfortunate Events will hit Netflix on January 13, 2017.
