Another interview roundup

By Rach | Published Sun Jul-31-11 -

On the Smurf promotional trail, Neil and Jayma talked to NBC’s iVillage and Entertainment Weekly, Neil talked to TheSevenSees.com and went on Hamish and Andy’s Gap Year, and there’s a nice interview with Neil at the National Post, another one at CinemaBlend and IAmRogue.com (with a video here), A Minute With Neil Patrick Harris via Reuters, and a write-up from Neil’s recent Smurfs press conference at Parade. Neil also called into a few radio shows to promote the movie, listen to him talking to LiteRock105 and Dave Ryan in the Morning.

Neil was on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on Bravo last Monday. If you’re in the US you can watch a video from the interview here.

Neil also voiced a character in yesterday’s BBC Radio 4 Saturday Play, the Great Tennessee Monkey Trial. If you’re in the UK you can catch it on iPlayer for 6 more days, here. The play was first broadcast in November 2009 as a co-production between the BBC and LA Theater Works.

And if you haven’t seen it already (we’re still catching up on a few things!) there’s a first look picture from the new Harold & Kumar movie over at Entertainment Weekly.

Smurfy Update

By Rach | Published Wed Jul-27-11 -

So while we were out of the country, Neil was on… everything. The gallery is currently being updated with photos from the Smurfs World Premiere and the Smurf Week Kick Off Ceremony (there are a few up there already for both events, with more to come), and now I’m going to do a brief roundup of everything else. Thanks so much to Marcy for helping us out by giving us a heads up on what he was up to, so we weren’t totally floundering when we got back!

Last Monday Neil was a guest on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, which you can watch in two parts here and here (not region restricted).

He co-hosted Live with Regis and Kelly yesterday, and you can watch the host chat section here.

Neil will be on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon tonight, on NBC at 12.35/11.35c.

Finally (for now – there’s more to come!) Neil and Jayma talked to Young Hollywood on their Smurfs promo trail:

San Diego Comic-Con 2011

By Hilary | Published Mon Apr-18-11 -

There are now a little over three months until San Diego Comic Con and both Rach and I will be attending this year.

It’s too soon to know which TV shows and films will be represented at the convention however previous NPH projects have had a presence at the event – after all, this is a man who has voiced Peter Parker/Spider-Man (plus the Amazing Spider-Man in the recent video game, Nightwing and Barry Allen/The Flash. Really now, surely Joss Whedon must be able to find a space for him in The Avengers? This year we have a new Harold & Kumar movie to look forward (A Very Harold & Kumar Christmas) and certainly the stars of that franchise are no strangers to Comic Con.

And of course let’s not forget The Smurfs! If they can invade New York, is San Diego any safer?

One thing’s for certain: thanks to Dr Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog, Neil is pretty much destined to always have a place in con-goers hearts. If we hear about any specific events planned for this year’s convention we’ll be sure to let you know and hopefully we’ll also be in a position to report back on these.

Movie release date updates!

By Rach | Published Sat Mar-26-11 -

Harold & Kumar 3 – “A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas” – will open in US cinemas on November 4th this year.

The new “Harold & Kumar” comedy picks up six years after the duo’s last adventure. After years of growing apart, Harold Lee (John Cho) and Kumar Patel (Kal Penn) have replaced each other with new best friends and are preparing for their respective Christmas celebrations. But when a mysterious package arrives at Kumar’s door, his attempt to deliver it to Harold’s house ends with him inadvertently burning down Harold’s father-in-law’s prize Christmas tree. With his in-laws out of the house for less than a day, Harold decides to cover his tracks rather than come clean, and reluctantly embarks on another ill-advised but hilarious journey with Kumar, taking them through New York City on Christmas Eve in search of the perfect Christmas tree.

And according to EW, The Smurfs will now open five days earlier than expected – on July 29 instead of August 3.
