'House' Stunner Olivia Wilde Feeling Like an Unlucky Thirteen
(March 18) - As Dr. Remy "Thirteen" Hadley, 'House' star Olivia Wilde has stood up to Hugh Laurie's no-nonsense doctor for two seasons. Now she sets her sights on big-screen comedy with this summer's 'The Year One.' where she goes primitive next to cavemen Jack Black and Michael Cera.
Wilde tells Capitol File that the movie gig is a good thing, considering that she is always looking over her shoulder in 'House' scripts.
'House' stunner Olivia Wilde doesn't know if her days on the hit medical drama are numbered. "It's just so easy to kill me, I really have to behave," she tells Capitol File.
On the Longevity of 'Thirteen': "I've got the sword hanging over my head. At any point, if I ask for too much money they could go, 'Whoosh, there goes Thirteen.'Or she stepped in front of a car. It’s just so easy to kill me, I really have to behave."
On Just How the Writers Come Up With Those Wild Diseases: "Once a week the writers bring to the set a packet of strange medical mysteries that are compiled by their research assistant. To me, each one is more amazing than the next, but they’ve seen so many incredible mysteries at this point that they’re like, 'Oh yeah, this is sort of like the other one where she had the hairball in her stomach, and that’s kind of like the one who got decapitated, but it turns out it was epilepsy and it came from moldy bread.' They work very hard to find these tricky diseases that can be one thing and maybe another, could be fatal, probably fatal, then you get brought back to life, and then ta-da!—House can save you in act four."
On Making the Move to Big Screen Comedy: "Comedy was always the thing I wanted to do but I also have a lot of fun playing dramatic roles, and if you look at people like Cate Blanchett and the goddess Meryl Streep, I think there’s a way to do both."
