At barely 62 years old, the legendary and iconic actor is basically unrecognizable

Even though TV’s most famous doctor was making $700,000 an episode in its final season, House star Hugh Laurie said he feels like a fraud.

Regretting that he played “a fake version” of a doctor instead of a becoming a real one like his father wanted, Laurie admitted that his “dad would have hated” the shortcut that he chose to follow.

 

Keep reading to learn more about Laurie’s decision to be an actor instead of a doctor.

Dr. William (Ran) Laurie had huge hopes for the youngest of his sons, Hugh Laurie who was born in June 1959.

The junior Laurie was following in the footsteps of his esteemed father, a physician who before starting his career was a 1948 Olympic gold medalist in coxless pairs (rowing) and a graduate of a college of the University of Cambridge.

 

When the British-born Laurie was studying at the same college as his dad, he too was a member of the rowing team with plans to train for the Olympics, and then go to medical school.

But then, the young man discovered a drama club, a sketch comedy troupe called the Cambridge Footlights where he met The Remains of the Day actor Emma Thompson and then his future comedy partner, Stephen Fry of the 1997 film Wilde.
