Thanks to House, Hugh Laurie is often seen as this very gruff and sarcastic guy so it’s easy to forget that he has a lot of comedic acting credits to his name.
As someone who was introduced to him through some Fry and Laurie sketches and Blackadder, which he did before House, Newton is closer to what he started as than House is
Really ... I felt like those two aren't same person . I tho they both absolutely different person tho no way . How from little Stuart dad personality change into Dr house wow lol . Huge difference
I forgot if it was the director or the producer of the show but they didn't want a British guy to play House. Hugh put on such a convincing American accent that he tricked them. I believe they found out too late and just gave up.
I mean to be fair if you are the actor for a character, you likely also do their voice, which is acting in and of itself, so he is technically the VA for House
I know Hugh Laurie is british and I heard him speak non-american many times, but THIS is another level of using a different accent and tone of voice. I would have never guessed Hugh behind this character.
@@Mannco.orange I played this game like crazy during the point in my life where most of my nostalgia comes from. I lived in another country for 3 years when I was around 7 so the nostalgia tends to come from that period and that period only. Lots of people say LBP3 is bad but i haven’t played any of the other ones and i don’t want to change my mind.
Fun fact: After I watched this video, I somehow stumbled across a YT short that starred him, Rowan Atkinson(Mr. Bean), & some other dude doing a British skit & I was SHOCKED!
Yeah, the three were in a show called Black Adder together (it’s a show about them being medieval buddies, haven’t watched it in a while but it was Monty python esc humor), me and my dad only watched that and ‘Fry and Laurie’, so I only knew Hugh Laurie as a comedian and when I first watched House I was shocked 😭
@@birdquest8695 I just noticed a few days ago when reading the credits of the game an recognizing his face. I was so shock I just haaad to make a video
He was also the voiced of one of the characters from 2 British animated Christmas specials that came out the early 2000s like "Lost in the Snow" and "Second Star to the Left" (which I do remember seeing those specials on TV as a kid).
I remember MysteriousMrEnter saying that he didn't understand why Hugh Laurie kept doing a fake British accent. Not even in his top 10 most embarrassing moments.
As someone who's never played LBP, I would have never assumed that they were the same guy. I kind of wish I hadn't seen this, because now when I see the game I feel so on edge because I can't help but hear Dr. House acting happy and polite, which is usually what he does right before delivering a killer roast to a patient.
During that time he didn’t have a lot of roles so he wasn’t that busy. Also, Newton is the main antagonist of the game. He has about 5 hours of voicelines put together
For the longest time, I didn't know he was also the dad in Stuart Little until my sister pointed it out, this guy was in my childhood and I was clueless until last year
He actually got started in comedic work, House was a huge shift from his first works in stuff like Blackadder, A bit of Fry and Laurie, and Jeeves and Wooster. Stephen Fry has also done a decent amount of voice work (Fable 3, for example).
Hugh Laurie has an extremely posh British accent, in the first season of House you can hear him still trying to develop his American accent in certain scenes. His appearance in Veep (among other shows like Blackadder and The Night Manager) really shows the truly versatile talent of this man.
That’s some hella impressive vocal range (and also, please tell me it wasn’t just me who when the saw the patient went “Fisher, the depressed intern!” ((I’m an avid Bones watcher, okay?))
He sounds more like the second in a lot of his shows, watch Jeeves and Wooster or A Bit of Fry and Laury if you want to see more of him doing his silly, foppish voice.
Wait until you realize he had a Cameo in Family Guy season 2. ...and _then_ came back in Season 8 as Dr House, and whips out _both_ his Regular voice and his House voice!
Hugh Laurie. Known for starring in: Stuart little (the boys dad) Arthur Christmas (Steve) Hop (EB’s dad) Monsters vs Aliens (cockroach) Valiant (gutsy) 101 Dalmatians (Jasper)
To anyone that stumbles across this video in the future. He's british, the american is more of an act than the LittleBigPlanet character.
Seeing how long he acted in House MD he may as well be an american by now😂
@@Kalashimi actually he still struggles with the accebt all the time as far as we know
I looked at the thumbnail and immediately knew he was British just by looking at him
Makes sense, considering his American accent sounds exactly like Eggs Benedict Cumberland's.
English actually not british, british means English/Irish/Welsh/Scottish
He's Dr. Cockroach from Monsters vs Aliens
I was trying to think why he sounded so familiar!
WHAT?
He IS?!
@@daffytaffy5966 Also Steve from Arthur Christmas
@@ironclanex6351 I had to look up what that was, holy shit I saw this movie like one time xddd

House keeps making me forget Hugh Laurie is British in real life.
I originally knew him from black adder as George, he was so hilarious
the clip from Friends during a flight it's more obvious
@@thelittleal1212same
Reminder that House is the clown in a show that is funny almost all the time
Ah yes, Doctor House's voice actor
He's doing a voice for the character
He's not american 😂
@@miniature030but he's not JUST voice acting, he is the actor in its entirety
Doctor who??
@@BOidoesStuff1just get back in the damn tardis
@@BOidoesStuff1no, that’s a different actor
I REFUSE TO BELIEVE THIS, FROM DOCTOR HOUSE TO MR BOUNCE THIS AINT REAL CHIEF!!!!!
Who is Mr bounce?
@@AfgonYT.Yuh
I couldn't believe that he's also George from Blackadder, like he and House are so completely contrasting
As someone who was introduced to him through some Fry and Laurie sketches and Blackadder, which he did before House, Newton is closer to what he started as than House is
beleive this, dr house is the singer/pianist for a blues band
0:44 *Vietnam flashbacks*
Crazy
Shellshock
Cockroach Scientist flashbacks
More like WWI Western Front flashbacks
@@Selvariabell was that meant to be a joke?
The range is insane, you couldn't easily tell because it's not just the extreme accent difference, but also the voice and tone. Insane
Finally a "same actor" video that doesn't sound exactly the same
He's also the dad from Stuart Little
Omfg how did I never notice that!?
WTF he is. Didn't even need to look it up I can just picture it from remembering the movie.😅
“We do not eat family members!” 🤣
Really ... I felt like those two aren't same person . I tho they both absolutely different person tho no way . How from little Stuart dad personality change into Dr house wow lol . Huge difference
I now regret reading your comment and discovering this connection.
0:45 That's the most George from blackadder voiceline ever! 😂
I didn't even realize they're the same actor.
Like that time he compliments Sir Talbot Buxomly lol
Yes, exactly lol
I swear all I could imagine was Lieutenant George from Blackadder Goes Forth when he met the general in the trenches lmao. Such an iconic series...
@@olslimy6428 so accurate! 😂
Love the idea that he's so good at faking an American accent that some consider it voice acting
@@NIDELLANEUM I just said voice acting because that’s what most people title this type of video

@@-H.I.C.- Black Adder has medieval buddies in the first season, with timeskips of around centuries b/n seasons
@@techietisdead oh yeah you’re right, thanks!
There is also 'A bit of Fry and Laurie' which is really great.
@@amalkrishnanajay5907 THE “mystery” SONG 🙏🙏🙏🙏🔥🔥🔥🔥
If you’ve ever played LittleBigPlanet 3 (the game where the second clip is from) you can especially tell they are the same person from the Duh at 0:19
He was also EB's dad from Hop.
FR?!! love that movie
How did I not realize Hugh Laurie voiced Newton?
@@birdquest8695 I just noticed a few days ago when reading the credits of the game an recognizing his face. I was so shock I just haaad to make a video
George survived WW1. Good for him
Ahh a fellow Black Adder I see
"Tally Ho, Pip Pip, and Bernard's your Uncle"
“Permission to shout ‘bravo’ at an annoyingly loud volume, sir?”
I love that clips from house MD you got were from yt shorts, still with the music and subtitles
Didnt want to get HBO max or paramount plus or whatever for this one video
People forget that before being snarky Dr House, Hugh Laurie was mostly known for playing a likeable fool in Jeeves and Woosters.
And Blackadder.
Such a great show.
Bertie: By jove, Jeeves. Do you know everything?
Jeeves: I really don't know, sir.
I don't hear House, I hear George
He’s also Steve from Arthur Christmas
No way, Newton Pudd was Dr. House this whole time
Fun Fact: There is an interview uploaded on youtube of Hugh Laurie speaking about his experience/view on voicing Newton
if you think that's weird, watch him play the Prince Regent in Blackadder the Third. I swear it's a trip
The visceral reaction I had triggered every crit and stagger/guard break sfx i could think of
0:35 It's Wooster! From Jeeves and Wooster
“What ho, Jeeves!”
Another scheme to get away from the aunts
I love this video. Hugh Laurie is so awesome
why was i expecting the voice to be "did you try the medicine drug"
You are a black man.
Our House, in the middle of our House.
He was also the voiced of one of the characters from 2 British animated Christmas specials that came out the early 2000s like "Lost in the Snow" and "Second Star to the Left" (which I do remember seeing those specials on TV as a kid).
THEY'RE THE SAME PERSON?!
Also LittleBigPlanet is so nostalgic
fitting for Hugh to find work on LBP, Stephen Fry narrated the whole series iirc? They've been lifelong friends.
I remember MysteriousMrEnter saying that he didn't understand why Hugh Laurie kept doing a fake British accent. Not even in his top 10 most embarrassing moments.
In Italian, Dr House has the same voice actor as Johnny Bravo. And somehow, that voice fits for both. Rip Sergio Di Stefano
“The second reason is your on drugs.”
“I’m not..!”
“I am.”
Loving how this was pulled not from the actual show, but from that one guy who posts the show on shorts
You gave me a rush of two completely different nostalgic memories
Newton was a childhood crush, House was an adult one... something about Hugh Laurie seems to entice me
Why you gotta hit me such a gut punch of nostalgia, have you any idea of how much I miss Little bit planet?
Eggs Benedict????????? Fnaf???????
It’s no coincidence I had a crush on both characters 😮😮😮
Hugh Laurie is up there in "Actors I refuse to believe are British". He's in the company of Daniel Kaluuya, John Boyega, and 2 live action Spider-Men.
As someone who's never played LBP, I would have never assumed that they were the same guy. I kind of wish I hadn't seen this, because now when I see the game I feel so on edge because I can't help but hear Dr. House acting happy and polite, which is usually what he does right before delivering a killer roast to a patient.
@@Yeshio I’ve played LBP for years and still didn’t know. Lots of people here seem to be in the same boat
I didn't know he had the time to be doing smaller roles like Little Big Planet
During that time he didn’t have a lot of roles so he wasn’t that busy. Also, Newton is the main antagonist of the game. He has about 5 hours of voicelines put together
@@AfgonYT. Interesting
He also made two blues albums, and they're surprisingly fantastic!
House MD keeps making me forget Hugh Laurie is British in real life 😭.
I did not expect him to be in LBP. Thats amazing
I always thought the voice actor for house sounds like the voice actor for the main character in the game crime scene cleaner
“Do you have hair on your special place?”
I used to be a BIG little big planet fan and would play 3 like everyday, this video almost made me explode just from hearing the opening
For the longest time, I didn't know he was also the dad in Stuart Little until my sister pointed it out, this guy was in my childhood and I was clueless until last year

Thank you for selecting "Eggs Benedict"

“I am.” is crazy
He also played Steve In Arthur Christmas
I remember my first role of his was Mr. Little in Stuart Little 1 & 2.
House was in Little Big Planet? That’s awesome!
That’s some hella impressive vocal range (and also, please tell me it wasn’t just me who when the saw the patient went “Fisher, the depressed intern!” ((I’m an avid Bones watcher, okay?))
The way my jaw dropped as a wave of childhood memories came flooding back to me
I had to use 110% of my brain power to imagine Hugh changing his tone and reading the script.
Nana Pud: "My Newty!"
Newton: "Want some medicine drugs?"
He sounds more like the second in a lot of his shows, watch Jeeves and Wooster or A Bit of Fry and Laury if you want to see more of him doing his silly, foppish voice.
Dude i wasn't expecting little big planet... That brings back good childhood memories
FINALLY, someone actually did it!
He was also the voice of Wing Commander Gutsy from Valiant, I would still watch if he played a WW1 or WW2 soldier
In all other jokes set aside, Hugh Laurie is such a great actor at anything he does ;)
I cannot tell if he enjoyed voicing Newton or utterly hated it and that honestly horrifies me.
Wait until you realize he had a Cameo in Family Guy season 2.
...and _then_ came back in Season 8 as Dr House, and whips out _both_ his Regular voice and his House voice!
My jaw hit the floor. LBP was my whole childhood. Had no idea he was in it
Those LittleBigPlanet cutscenes just had a different atmosphere to it, feels just right
the lbp3 gave me nostalgia 😭
Little big planet karting....man that brings back memories
No words just 🤩🤯😱
I don't lnow why but when I hear the cartoon character talk I just see House talking that way to someone
All ive learnt from this video is that if hugh laurie doesnt play dr house, his role almost certainly has the blackadder george voice
Honestly Hughs voice acting for little big planet sounds somewhat similar to him speaking as George in Blackadder.
Damn, i miss LittleBigPlanet. The LBP2 days diving in and meeting people were peak.
Hugh Laurie loves child things. He voice acted in several kids' movies.
No fucking way, that actually enlightened me
This just shows how talented he is
yoooo i never knew this! i loved this character
He sounds like Dr. House saying things in a Goofy manner when he said Chum CHum
I still can believe house is the same guys from blackadder 😂😂
just got hit with littlebigplanet nostalgia I LOVED THOSE GAMES
considering he was close with Stephen Fry, the voice of the narrator, i wonder if Fry was the one who inspired him to join LBP3
His voice in Blackadder goes forth also sounds quite different :P
0:29 so thats where scott got the name from for fnaf sister location
Hugh Laurie.
Known for starring in:
Stuart little (the boys dad)
Arthur Christmas (Steve)
Hop (EB’s dad)
Monsters vs Aliens (cockroach)
Valiant (gutsy)
101 Dalmatians (Jasper)
"Listen here Bl-adder I really think that we should listen to Baldrick on this one."
This guy is the dad from stuart little?!
This man was Wooster in Jeeves and Wooster.
This vexes me quite a bit
Hugh Laurie was also in an episode of The Young Ones
I did not expect to see LBP3 today 🔥🔥
0:22 huh didn’t know dr fisher from bones (2006) was also in house md
THE NOSTALGIA FROM LITTLE. BIG PLANET 3 OMG
When people hear houses real accent it always shocks them
