Ricky Gervais to play a potion-peddling wizard
His name will be Xanax. And it's a musical comedy. You're welcome.
Ricky Gervais is to guest-star in US musical comedy series Galavant.
Yes, musical comedy.
The Derek star will play no average guy. He’ll play a medieval wizard named Xanax, reports Entertainment Weekly.
Xanax is well-known for having the best potions.
And is apparently pretty good at guiding people through – probably rather strange – alchemy-induced trips down memory lane
Joshua Sasse (Frankenstein’s Army, Rogue) stars as the lead, which sees him caught in a battle with the king for stealing his true love. Hugh Bonneville is also set to guest star.
The series is expected to premiere early next year.
Dance us out Gervais…
