Hugh Grant won a Golden Globe Award and a BAFTA best actor award for his role as Charles in Four Weddings and a Funeral opposite Andie MacDowell.
Critic Rotten Tomatoes says his top five movies, in order, are Paddington 2 (2017), Sense and Sensibility (1995), Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994), The Remains of the Day (1993) and About A Boy (2002). But is there one movie he wished he’d never made?
There sure is.
The British actor named 1988 made-for-TV movie The Lady and the Highwayman as the movie he’d erase from his acting CV if he had the chance.
He made the admission while promoting Dungeons & Dragons: Honour Among Thieves.
“… [it’s] one thing for me to say I was bad, but I can’t bring down the rest of the wonderful colleagues who worked with me on any film by saying it was bad,” he said.
“That’s my dilemma.”
But he then named The Lady and the Highwayman as the movie he’d like to see gone from his filmography.
“I’m a highwayman. I’m meant to be sexy, low-budget, bad wig, bad hat, I looked like [1960s cartoon character] Deputy Dawg,” he said.
“When I’m tense … my voice goes up two octaves … and it’s poor.
“But I apologise to all my wonderful colleagues on it.”
