The One Movie Hugh Grant Would Happily Shred From His Filmography

In a March 2023 episode of James Corden’s “Spill Your Guts or Fill Your Guts,” Corden asked Hugh Grant, “You’re gonna erase one movie from your IMDb page, what would it be?” Grant expressed that he didn’t want to oust any of his co-stars. Then, he replied, “The Lady and the Highwayman.” The audience erupted in cheers, as Grant looked down and nodded his head. He then elaborated on why this role was such a miss, adding, “I’m a highwayman. I’m meant to be sexy. Low budget. Bad wig, bad hat. I look like Deputy Dawg. When I’m tense — I don’t know if this happens to you when you’re acting — my voice goes up two octaves.” “The Lady and the Highwayman,” a 1988 made-for-TV film, takes place during the Restoration of Charles II. Featuring Grant as the lead, the movie interweaves themes of romance and treachery.

While Grant wasn’t a fan of “The Lady and the Highwayman,” there’s one particular film that the actor had no regrets about participating in. In a 2021 appearance on “The Drew Barrymore Show,” Barrymore raved about their 2007 film “Music and Lyrics.” Grant chimed in, “I agree with you. ‘Cause I love to hate the films I’ve been in, and I do hate some of them. But ‘Music and Lyrics’ — it’s impossible to hate.” According to him, the film’s success was in part due to Barrymore and Grant’s remarkable on-screen chemistry.
