Russian version of “Dr. house”, the shooting of which will start in
April, will be the first official remake of the famous series. The main role
will be performed by Alexey Serebryakov. The first season will be released at the end of this year.

“For us this is a serious challenge — to create their own version
this famous TV series, — said General Director of TV channel “Russia
1” Anton Zlatopolsky. — As a rule, neither the professionalism of the producers, no
the fame of the actors, nor the invested funds do not guarantee absolute success,
when it comes to local remakes. There is always a pair of “secret
components” that make the show outstanding, and we know how to make them
to work.”

Original American TV series “House, M. D.”
was produced by Universal Television for the FOX network. First
the season was released in 2004. Latest — in 2012. All eight seasons
was unbelievably popular with spectators and television critic. The series
entered the Guinness book of records, brought together the maximum number
the audience: 80 million (as of 2013). “Dr. house” received a lot of film
and teleprime, including several Emmys and Golden globes.

The basic plot is the work and life of the team
doctors-diagnosticians. Each episode is a detective story, in
which villain it is a disease, but investigators are doctors trying to install
diagnosis. The main role of the talented, cynical and witty Dr. house
played by British actor Hugh Laurie.

Who will play the role of the Russian team, Dr. house, is still unknown.
