Hugh Laurie as Gordon Freeman?

[cschraer]

Wouldn't it be a good cast for Hugh Laurie to be Gordon Freeman? I know he hasn't done a lot of action flicks but he looks just like him.

I like the optimism and innocence in this thread, gives me a warm feeling.

No. The only person who can fill Gordon's voice is Morgan Freeman. Screw colour, give him the role if there must be one!

 

[Armored Prayer]

I'd like to see it, but he must not ever talk.

It will ruin the character.

 

[Palademon]

Good thing it's a silent role because all they need is his face plus glasses

 

[TriggerUnhappy]

Talk about easy cash for the guy, just walk around expressionless throughout the movie. Essentially, he'd be Keanu Reeves.

But yeah, that'd be pretty good casting.

Nah. I say Brad Pitt does, at least a bit more than Hugh Laurie(who I do agree is awesome).

*thinks*

Its possible...

 

[SnootyEnglishman]

So Hugh Laurie as House if House didn't talk? Sound pretty awesome actually.

 

[Banana Phone Man]

The one man and the one voice, together as one.

The world would colapse on itself as it would exceed it's own awesome allowance meter.

 

[Soviet Heavy]

No, Freeman already exists. He is currently working at the Large Hadron Collider, planning our impending doom.

 

[icame]

It could work. But i don't think valve would approve of a Half life movie.

 

[reg42]

I've actually thought that very thing quite often.

 

[maddawg IAJI]

Looking and being are two different things. The Pope looks like the Sith Lord, but that doesn't mean he IS the Sith Lord.

I just don't want Freeman to have a movie. He's a silent Crowbar wielding Scientist, I can very easily tell you that Hollywood can and will fuck that up.

Its possible...

For a second i was like what? Hugh Laurie i really can not see him as gordon.Then i saw this picture then i thought yes proberly the best professional actor to cast as my freeman.

I guess being british and knowing the roles he played before house made me think differently at first

 

[Arctodus_Simus]

I never thought about it till you mentioned it, but now you do, its pretty decent, in my head at least

Could be worth a look, lol

 

[fullbleed]

What's the point in having Hugh Laurie as a character who can't talk?

 

[Fridge]

Hmm, I can see why you would think Hugh Laurie would work, at least in looks, I don't think his vioce would suit. I haven't got another actor that could suit the role in mind.
