Actor Hugh Laurie.
Hugh Laurie is to voice a LittleBigPlanet character.
The acclaimed actor has been announced as the voice of LittleBigPlanet 3's villain Newton, which will see the 55 year old star opposite his long-time comedic partner Stephen Fry, who he has previously worked with on A Little Bit of Fry &
Laurie and Blackadder.
The House star explained that he was surprised at how comfortable he felt voicing a video game for the first time, saying: "It's not nearly as different as I might have thought 10 years ago; storytelling is storytelling, whatever form it takes and I'm attracted to anything I can do for the first time.
"This seemed to me to be so completely charming, witty and lovingly done that I was very taken with it."
The game will once again see Sackboy return, but with the added benefit of three brand new hand-stitched heroes, Oddsock, Swoop and Toggle, who will help the protagonist to defeat Hugh Laurie's evil character, Newton.
