If there is one thing more unfortunate than the launch of the Netflix's A Series of Unfortunate Events, it was the making of this truly dreadful series. Today, Netflix released a featurette detailing the collective misery involved in bringing this most regrettable tale to life.
Based on the internationally best-selling series of books by Lemony Snicket (aka Daniel Handler) and starring Emmy and Tony Award winner Neil Patrick Harris, 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. The siblings must outsmart Olaf at every turn, foiling his many devious plans and disguises, in order to discover clues to their parents' mysterious death. The eight-episode series is a Netflix original production, executive produced by Emmy Award winner Barry Sonnenfeld and Daniel Handler, and also stars Patrick Warburton (Lemony Snicket), Joan Cusack (Justice Strauss), Alfre Woodard (Aunt Josephine), Malina Weissman (Violet Baudelaire) and Louis Hynes (Klaus Baudelaire).
The series is now streaming globally on Netflix.
