Neal Patrick Harris’ stock went up in my book after I saw him guest judge (read: tear people up on) American Idol. Not that NPH ever had stock issues in my book. But this could be his tipping point… from pretty cool to fucking awesome:
Neil Patrick Harris has a TV-heavy resume. Now he’s just landed the lead in Smurfs: The Movie for Sony. Harris won’t have to walk around as a blue-tinted Avatar, either. The Raja Gosnell-directed film is a mix of live action and animation, and Harris is the lead live action character. Filming begins in April, when he’ll be on hiatus from CBS’ How I Met Your Mother.
That article’s headline claims he’ll play the “lead Smurf”, but the text you just read says he’ll be the lead “live action character”, meaning he’ll be either Gargamel or Papa Smurf, depending on how you’re reading it.
NPH = Gargamel?
