7 Film Auditions For Famous Characters You Need to Check Out

6. Hugh Laurie Stops Being British for House

http://youtu.be/3Iwqj9i4QDc I'm not sure what's happened to Laurie before this audition (he opens the video rather cryptically), but to say he doesn't nail it is laughable. There's not much he even changes for the role once he gets it, though apparently it's rumored that he didn't even know he was auditioning for the lead of House in the runaway hit TV show. But I knew plenty of folk who are glad to see him getting some good work in.

Cameron Carpenter is an aspiring screenwriter, current film and journalism student, and self-diagnosed cinephile, which only sounds bad in certain circles. Devoted fan of comics, movies, theater, Jesus Christ, Sidney Lumet, and Peter O'Toole, he sometimes spends too much time on his Scribd and comicbookmovie.com, but doesn't think you're one to judge, devoted reader. You can follow him on Twitter to watch him talk to people you didn't know exist. Oh, and Daredevil is quite the big deal around here (my head).
