Hugh Laurie’s Reflection on Gregory House
Hugh Laurie, who masterfully portrayed the enigmatic Dr. Gregory House, once shared profound insights about his character. “I think everyone realized that no matter how hard he was on them, he was harder on himself,” the British actor, a two-time Golden Globe winner for the role, told the Los Angeles Times. House was known for seeing through facades, understanding people in a way that few do, despite living in a world where authenticity can be elusive.
Yet, the toll of embodying such a complex character showed in Laurie’s own experiences. “There are very few things in life that are so deliciously enjoyable that you want to do them for 16 hours a day, every day—including sex and fine dining,” he revealed in a conversation with The Telegraph in 2012. The grind of being part of a demanding series for eight years wore on him. “It’s not the playing the character over and over again, it’s the coming to work over and over again,” Laurie explained. He likened the workload to producing 50 or 60 feature films, adding, “You want a break, you really do.”
