Hugh Grant as Mr. Reed in Heretic.
Charming and witty, with a smile that could make anyone swoon, it’s completely understandable why Hugh Grant has long been cast as the romantic interest in so many of our favorite films. Whether you’re a fan of Notting Hill or Love Actually, or maybe even the Bridget Jones film series, Grant has the ability to charm even the most cold-hearted among us.
“That was kind of our attraction to Hugh Grant, first and foremost, when we thought of him for this role, is that he has built up so much goodwill with audiences around the world over his romantic comedy movies that we all love and grew up with, but he’s also gotten into this darker side of his persona in the last 12 years since Cloud Atlas . We love how the mash of those two — the charm, the wit, but the intellect and that darker edge — all coalesces into this world.
“It’s crazy seeing him on set because he feels like a method actor. He is Mr. Reed. You’re looking at Mr. Reed, and you’re talking to Mr. Reed, and then we’ll wrap, and then he’ll go home and he looks like a movie star. He’s so handsome and cool, and it’s like, ‘Who is this guy? We’ve been hanging out with Mr. Reed all day long.’ It’s amazing.”
