Despite being best known for his ultra-charming and swoon-worthy roles, legendary British actor Hugh Grant is switching his typical love interest part out for a crazy and malicious villain in the upcoming horror movie Heretic, which writers Scott Beck and Bryan Woods say he is perfect for.
"Every single scene is predicated on, is this a dangerous situation, or is this just a conversation that has a little bit of bite and edge?" Beck tells SFX magazine in the new issue, which features Wicked on the cover and hits newsstands on November 1. "It took the process of Bryan and I throwing a bunch of names around, and then thinking about 35 years of our relationship with Hugh Grant, somebody that we've seen in so many movies, where there is a charm and this wit."
