Neil Patrick Harris will host his own variety show

If you like all things Neil Patrick Harris, then more great news is coming your way: the actor, author and general man-about-town signed a deal to host an American version of the British variety show, "Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway."

The long-running U.K. show includes interviews, performances, prizes and comedy sketches. NBC has ordered 10 episodes so far of the series, which will be filmed in front of a live audience in New York City.

According to Vulture, the show will have a format familiar to "Saturday Night Takeaway," but is not expected to air on Saturdays or have the same name.

No premiere date has been announced.

"As I watched the show, I couldn't stop smiling," Harris said. "Now that I've seen many seasons, my face hurts. It's a game changer. Nothing like this has been done before, and its unique structure fits right into my random skill set. I can't wait to roll up my sleeves and have some fun!"

Sources told Vulture that ITV, the British network which airs the original show, was asking more than $2.5 million for each hour-long episode. But knowing NPH, it will be a worthy investment!

After all, he is having a big year. He's hosting the Oscars in February, co-starred in "Gone Girl," released an autobiography and got married. Now, we have another project to look forward to. Go NPH Go!
