Actor Hugh Laurie was spotted taking a stroll in the sunshine with his adorable puppy. He didn’t seem as energetic as usual. Hugh Laurie dressed warmly for the premiere of his new sitcom “Why Didn’t They Ask Evans?” He wore a dark blue sweater, a dark blue cap, black trousers and trainers. The 62-year-old actor, best known for his roles in Blackadder and House, is currently working on a crime film based on Agatha Christie’s 1934 novel of the same name. The prestigious project stars some of Hollywood’s biggest names. The film promises to be a fascinating reinterpretation of one of Christie’s best-known works. The vicar’s son Bobby Jones is played by Will Poulter, while his plucky companion Lady Frances Derwent is played by Frances Derwent. Together, they investigate a murder case. Emma Thompson and Jim Broadbent play Lady Frances Marcham’s aristocratic parents.
Hugh Laurie is both the director of the miniseries and plays psychotherapist Dr. See James Nicholson. He expressed his enthusiasm for the project and mentioned that he has been a huge fan of the book and its captivating mystery since he was a young boy. That fascination and curiosity stays with him to this day.
I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to write and tell another story about this extraordinary group of people. I really appreciated the effort that went into this. It was important to me to do my best and make sure that my efforts were consistent with the overall project.
