Looks like the Baudelaire kids are not only going to the circus in season two of A Series of Unfortunate Events, they’re IN it!
Netflix released a brand new, behind-the-scenes look at the upcoming season and it’s full of new scenes from the episodes.
If you don’t know, A Series of Unfortunate Events recounts the tragic tale of the Baudelaire orphans – Violet, Klaus, and Sunny – and their extraordinary encounters with the devious Count Olaf who will stop at nothing to get his hands on their inheritance.
Foiling his many dastardly plans and disguises, the young siblings discover clues to their parents’ mysterious death, links to a covert organization, and begin to unlock long-held family secrets.
The upcoming season two will have 10 episodes, covering five books in the series: “The Austere Academy”, “The Ersatz Elevator”, “The Vile Village”, “The Hostile Hospital”, and “The Carnivorous Carnival”.
“If you couldn’t tell from the looks on our faces, Season 2 of A Series of @unfortunate Events is going to be much (much!) worse for the Baudelaires,” Louis teased on his Instagram.
While the second season will premiere in March, the cast is currently filming season three in Vancouver.
Neil Patrick Harris, who plays the sinister Count Olaf in the Netflix series, told TVGuide that three seasons would actually cover all 13 of Lemony Snicket’s books.
“We’ve intentionally been very truthful and factual and loyal to the books,” Neil shared. “We’ve added a few characters that aren’t in the books, we’ve added some songs that you probably couldn’t put into the books, but for the most part we’re sticking to the structure of what already worked.”
Netflix announced over the weekend that the series, based on the series by Lemony Snicket, will return on March 30th.
“Tonally, we have more action, and things are little darker and sadder,” EP Barry Sonnenfeld shared with EW recently.
Neil Patrick Harris, who plays Count Olaf, added, “Now that we’re in season 2 – and I think the same is true with the books – now the Baudelaires can start to take some control and try and take more action. I think season 2 ends up being a little bigger in its scope and scale, but also allows for a little bit of a more fevered heartbeat from our protagonists.”
Season two, which covers books 5 through 9, continues as the Baudelaire children move from a boarding school to a fancy penthouse apartment, a vile village, and a few other depressing and short-lived homes.
In the new season, we’ll get 10 more one-hour episodes of Count Olaf (Neil Patrick Harris) trying to steal the Baudelaire orphans’ fortune.
Foiling his many dastardly plans and disguises, the young siblings discover clues to their parents’ mysterious death, links to a covert organization, and begin to unlock long-held family secrets.
A Series of Unfortunate Events will return in the spring next year on Netflix.
