Neil Patrick Harris Joins AMERICAN HORROR STORY: FREAK SHOW
American Horror Story: Freak Show is about to get even better with the addition of Neil Patrick Harris. I've been enjoying this fourth season of the horror anthology series, and so far it's my favorite season. His husband David Burka will also have a guest starring role.
According to Variety, Harris will play a salesman in the final two episodes of the season, and that Burtka's role will be connected with the storyline of Jessica Lange’s character, Elsa Mars. Harris admitted earlier in the year that he wanted to join the series, and he even reached out to creator Ryan Murphy. Harris told EW Radio:
“I wrote a letter to Ryan asking if I can be in it, even though I wasn’t even available to be in it. To do one that involves any kind of freak, circus nonsense is going to be so unsettling to watch. Can’t wait!”
This wouldn't be the first time that Harris and Murphy worked together, they collaborated on a season one episode of Glee, which earned Harris an Emmy nomination for guest actor in a comedy series.
It was also recently announced that Harris would be also hosting the Oscars next year, which should be fun.
