Hugh Laurie’s appearance was unrecognizable when he was spotted sporting a long bushy beard over the weekend.
The 62-year-old actor, who is known for his appearances in House and Blackadder, appeared to be enjoying the low-key occasion in a completely different mood than usual.
Hugh was spotted walking his dog on Sunday as he looked forward to the debut of his new sitcom Why They Didn’t Ask Evans. Hugh was wearing black trousers and trainers when he was spotted.
Hugh was sitting in the sun wearing a navy beanie and a navy jumper to keep him warm. By combining the two, he was able to avoid getting too cold.
Based on Agatha Christie’s 1934 novel of the same name, this gripping murder mystery features an all-star ensemble. The book was published under the same title.
Will Poulter plays a vicar’s son named Bobby Jones and Frances Derwent plays Bobby’s feisty partner Lady Frances Derwent. Together they investigate a murder.
In addition, it has well-known actors as the aristocratic parents of Lady Frances, Jim Broadbent and Emma Thompson as Lord and Lady Marcham.
Hugh plays Dr. James Nicholson, a psychologist in the miniseries, and also serves as the show’s director.
He stated, “I loved this book when I was younger and I still do.” When I first began to truly understand the beauty of the underlying secret, the hairs on the back of my neck stood on end and have not completely fallen out since.
Since then, I’ve grown to love the cast of characters even more and consider it a great honor to have the opportunity to retell their stories in this way.
I said, “I’m going to make a draw on set and I’m going to give it everything I’ve got.”
