# Hugh Grant

> He made stammering through romantic comedies look like high art, then spent the back half of his career playing the kind of brittle, vain bastards who probably tormented him at school — and turned out to be better at that.

## Bio

Hugh John Mungo Grant was born 9 September 1960 and cut his teeth in period dramas like Maurice (1987), which won him the Volpi Cup, and later The Remains of the Day and Sense and Sensibility. Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994) made him a star — the Golden Globe and BAFTA followed — and the rom-com reign continued through Notting Hill, Bridget Jones's Diary, About a Boy, and Love Actually. Then he pivoted: supporting turns as a deluded accompanist in Florence Foster Jenkins (2016) and a preening actor in Paddington 2 (2017) earned him BAFTA nominations, and he kept leaning into darker, weirder work — Cloud Atlas, The Gentlemen, the horror film Heretic. Two Emmy nominations came for playing Jeremy Thorpe in A Very English Scandal and a murder suspect in The Undoing. He's been loud about hating acting, hating celebrity, and hating the tabloids — he became a prominent voice against Murdoch's empire during the phone hacking scandal. As of 2025 his films have grossed over four billion dollars, and Time Out named him one of Britain's fifty greatest actors.
