At first, you may be wondering why British rom-com legend Hugh Grant is in the new horror movie Heretic. Considering that he is best known for being a charming gentleman in the likes of Four Weddings and a Funeral, taking on a sinister villainous role seems rather unexpected for the star.
However, it turns out that Grant is a huge fan of the modern horror scene, especially films produced by indie darling studio A24. Not only that, it seems that the star is a firm believer in the more "fucked-up", the better. Even more so, he states that these movies are exactly what cinema needs right now, being responsible for bringing audiences back to theaters.
