A Series of Unfortunate Events : Rainn Wilson as Vice Principal Nero

Let's face it this HAS to happen. Ever since I first read "The Austere Academy", I have always pictured Rainn Wilson in my head whenever Vice Principal Nero came along (especially when accompanied by Helquist's artwork). Also, on a side note, I would really like to see either Teri Hatcher or Marisa Tomei as Esm Squalor; and Danny Trejo as Hector. Just imagine how funny it would be for Danny to play such a bashful, restrained character.

Yes! I've posted before that Rainn would be a great Nero. I would die laughing at his scenes if he was cast!

I agree, it would be fantastic! I really hope it happens. The only other person I can picture in the role is possibly Kelsey Grammar maybe.

Great casting choice. He would nail it.

I guess he would be ok, but I kinda think Dwight Yoakam or Weird Al Yankovich would be better.
