I've never seen him play anything other than a stoic dick. It's almost hard to think of him as a nice guy.
I'm sure many (American) people think Hugh Laurie is like House in real life too 😂
American here, I’m a big fan of Stephen Fry so I knew about him from A Bit of Fry and Laurie. I know I’m an outlier in the statistics.
Jeeves and Wooster here, but lump me into that outlier group with you.
Similar story but I'm Italian
British people know how sophisticated he really is
I was VERY surprised when I heard his real accent as a kid.
So were the production team of House. They totally thought he was an American and were surprised when he first spoke with them in his natural voice.
That's the power of acting and when done by a master, it's hard to imagine anything other than what they give us.
I'm pretty sure this is the first picture I have ever seen of him with a genuine smile on his face. In all his movies he doesn't actually smile, he does a condescending sneer.
By Grabthar's hammer..
But... he was the Metatron.
The one, the almighty? And voice of the One True God?
I'm so grateful you were here because I typed that all out as if on reflex and realized it was a bit much and deleted it but it felt so naked not to say the whole thing!
Right back at you lol it felt naked to me too. Sometimes you just gotta
Saw a movie earlier with him in it called Bottle Shock. Title might be one word. He plays a smug character but really he is just British in the movie. Came out in 2008. It was about California making wine. I enjoyed it but it is by no means thrilling. If you have watched everything else you want to see, go for it.
