The one film Hugh Grant wishes he could erase from his resume
LOS ANGELES — Actor Hugh Grant has revealed that one film project he wishes to erase from his filmography.
Grant is out flogging his appearance in ‘Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves’, appearing on ‘The Late Late Show with James Corden’ alongside costar Chris Pine, reports Deadline.
Corden enticed Grant into a spirited game of “Spill Your Guts or Fill Your Guts.” The task: name a film Grant would remove from his resume, or eat a slice of worm mayonnaise shepherd’s pie,
Grant didn’t find that task challenging, admitting he’s “specialised in being bad for decades.”
Grant finally tabbed ‘The Lady and the Highwayman’ as a mistake. The 1988 made-for-TV film saw Grant as Lord Lucius Vyne in a swashbuckling tale.
“I’m a highway man. I’m meant to be sexy,” Grant said.
Instead, the film was “Low-budget, bad wig, bad hat. I look like Deputy Dawg. When I’m tense, my voice goes up two octaves. Deputy Dawg would come leaping out of trees when a carriage would come past and go, ‘Stand and deliver!’.”
