Which cast member on House is taking an extended leave of absence?

According to series creator David Shore, Olivia Wilde — who took a leave of absence this fall to shoot a starring role in the big-budget sci-fi Western Cowboys and Aliens — will be gone for more than just a handful of episodes.

“It’s going to be a while unfortunately,” sighs series creator David Shore. “We love her but it is going to be a while. It’s going to be this season, but well into this season.”

The news comes as Wilde’s movie career is heating up big-time. The actress has four films in the pipeline (Cowboys and Aliens included), and recently signed a deal to join Ryan Reynolds and Jason Bateman in the body-swapping comedy The Change Up.

Shore says Wilde’s Change Up shooting schedule won’t further delay her return to Princeton Plainsboro. “She called us up and said she wanted to do [The Change Up],” he explains. “And it just so happened that what we had worked out storyline-wise allowed her a couple of extra episodes [off]. So that movie just filled in the gap. There were no further adjustments to her schedule as a result of that.”

Bottom line: Enjoy Thirteen’s appearance in tonight’s House premiere, because it’s the last one you’ll be getting for a while.

lol good. Thirteen is just awful.
[info]augusta 20th-Sep-2010 11:25 pm (UTC)
She's so pretty. I've only ever seen her in the Black Donnellys, though.
[info]listenlouder 20th-Sep-2010 11:30 pm (UTC)

That show was so good

[info]nuclearcouture 20th-Sep-2010 11:26 pm (UTC)
Not surprised, her arc is boring. Olivia Wilde is adorable, though.
[info]klmnumbers 20th-Sep-2010 11:26 pm (UTC)
lol the olivia wilde tag kinda spoils it =(
[info]inflixion 20th-Sep-2010 11:28 pm (UTC)
lol How does she have a tag?
[info]listenlouder 20th-Sep-2010 11:30 pm (UTC)
ikr, a mod put that on, idek why she has a tag
[info]de_throned 20th-Sep-2010 11:26 pm (UTC)
Because she has better things to do than be on House.


Learn from her, Hugh.

ugh, agreed. i'd love to see more of him but i can't bring myself to watch house because it gives me the heebie jeebies
[info]caesarea 20th-Sep-2010 11:59 pm (UTC)
I hate to say it, but I agree. As much as I enjoyed Broken this shit should have ended well before Kutner kicked the bucket.

I'm waiting for The Oranges to make me happy again.
[info]serenachan 20th-Sep-2010 11:26 pm (UTC)
It's clear she doesn't want to do House anymore, she should just quit
[info]manu19 20th-Sep-2010 11:29 pm (UTC)
her contract probably wont let her
[info]amkf 21st-Sep-2010 01:53 am (UTC)
No, I still think she loves being on the show, but she'd be an idiot to pass up other opportunities. Her tweets about and to castmates are adorable.
[info]inflixion 20th-Sep-2010 11:28 pm (UTC)
Does this mean more Amber Tamblyn?
[info]wicked_g 21st-Sep-2010 02:20 am (UTC)
Wait what? Tamblyn's on House now?
[info]inflixion 21st-Sep-2010 02:26 am (UTC)
She's going to be.
[info]jack_rowen 20th-Sep-2010 11:28 pm (UTC)
I hope she doesn't become one of those actors who, once they hit big with movies, suddenly decide TV work is "beneath them".
[info]missanemone 20th-Sep-2010 11:31 pm (UTC)
tbh i think she will be
[info]0nehitwonder 20th-Sep-2010 11:58 pm (UTC)
too late
[info]amkf 21st-Sep-2010 01:55 am (UTC)
I doubt that will happen. If she decides to focus more on movies for awhile, it will probably be because the schedule is a lot more flexible. She clearly has a lot of fun doing the series, but it is draining. Nothing to do with TV being "beneath" movies.
[info]whisperthewords 20th-Sep-2010 11:29 pm (UTC)
Oh hey, I might watch House again.

Olivia Wilde is lovely but Thirteen is a horribly written character.
[info]gusfrings 20th-Sep-2010 11:30 pm (UTC)
NOOOOOO
COME BACK 13 D;

I STILL LIKE YOU
[info]jennyholly2 20th-Sep-2010 11:30 pm (UTC)
so are they bringing in another girl?
[info]crantagonist 21st-Sep-2010 03:39 pm (UTC)
Yes, Amber Tamblyn.
