Monday 8th March 2004: Lemony Snicket Update:
Jim Carrey has been talking about Lemony Snicket "Oh man, its so much fun. Its such a different way to tell a children's story, its very original," he says about the film. "And it's an opportunity for me to show up as this crazed thespian. He's an evil thespian, which is redundant actually... I was not aware of the books before, they asked me to read these books and I did. I thought it was a really original voice. For me it's an opportunity to have fun and throw on disguises and make these characters. One of the characters, we were planning on doing a completely different character, he had an Italian accent. I had everything worked out, the character's name is Stephano and they put the wig on me in the make up chair like 5 minutes before they were going to test this character and the wig had changed and I said it's not that character anymore. And they put this mustache on and it was all the elements of this character but they have been altered in a way and I said it's not that guy anymore. [Director Brad Silberling] came into the trailer and said, 'what do you mean he's changed? Who is it?' And I started speaking like the guy who belonged to the hair and that's where the character came from, literally 5 minutes before we started and it just kind of blossomed from there, they are really good with me improvising."

Billy Connolly joins the cast of this anticipated Jim Carrey movie.

Monday 10th November 2003: Lemony Snicket Update:
Baudelaore has been in touch with the following "Jennifer Coolidge will play white-faced woman #1.
According to casting documents FilmJerk.com has received, which are used by agents to submit their clients for possible auditions, the five roles sought include:
Hook Handed Man: Scowling, sarcastic, and rough around the edges, he's Count Olaf's chief henchman, and does whatever ever it takes to please "The Boss." He sometimes wears fake hands to cover his deformity, as he has hooks for hands.
Bald Man: As nasty as his fellow henchmen, he acts as Olaf's fawning manservant and also the master of ceremonies and stage manager of Olaf's theatrical productions.
White-Faced Woman #1: A henchwoman and Olaf's maid. One tough broad, she is as deadpan as she is nasty, except when it comes to Olaf, whom she coddles. Always seen with her white-faced counterpart, she loves to gamble and torture the Baudelaire children.
White-Faced Woman #2: Olaf's other henchwoman and #1's sidekick, she's nasty, but agreeable, reiterating whatever her fellow white-faced cohort says.
Henchperson of Indeterminate Gender: Perhaps the most comic of the henchpeople, and extremely large, we never realize if this henchperson is male or female. She/he sports several ridiculous disguises, dances and sings, with unintelligible glee."
