Neil Patrick Harris Has Signed on to Star in and Produce New Netflix Comedy Series UNCOUPLED
Neil Patrick Harris (How I Met Your Mother) has signed on to star in and executive produce a new comedy series at Netflix titled Uncoupled. Harris will lead the series that is being created and executive produced by Younger and Emily in Paris creator/executive producer Darren Star and longtime Modern Family executive producer Jeffrey Richman, with MTV Entertainment Studios and Jax Media producing.
Uncoupled centers on Michael (Harris), who thought his life was perfect until his husband blindsides him by walking out the door after 17 years. Overnight, Michael has to confront two nightmares — losing what he thought was his soulmate and suddenly finding himself a single gay man in his mid-40s in New York City.
This sounds like a great project for NPH, and it will be great to see him back on TV and doing comedy. Filming is slated to begin in New York later this year. Harris will next be seen in Warner Bros.’ The Matrix 4, which comes out Dec. 22, and Lionsgate’s The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, which releases April 22.
