It seems to be Neil Patrick Harris, which is even more terrible.
And I had hopes for this too.
Edit: Whoops, misread. NPH is count Olaf.
Yeah, I'm slowly adjusting to NPH as Olaf. Though I must say, I have more faith in NPH doing a good job as Olaf than I do in KRONK pulling off a convincing Lemony Snicket.
How perfect would Helena Bonham Carter be as queen Esmé
And I wonder who'll play Carmelita Spats.
She really would be perf for the role of Esmé, haha!
No idea for Carmelita, but on a sidenote, the girl who played Violet in the movie just got cast in another series I'm stoked for, American Gods.
So we've got Patrick Warburton as Lemony Snicket, the narrator of the series.
Aaand Neil Patrick Harris as Count Olaf, the antagonist of the series.
K. Todd Freeman as Mr. Poe.
Malina Weissman as Violet and Louis Wynes as Klaus.
And now we know Aasif Mandvi has been cast as Uncle Monty!
