Hugh Grant
Hugh Grant is a British actor known for his roles in romantic comedies, where he often plays charming, self-deprecating, and awkwardly witty characters.
His floppy-haired persona in films like *Four Weddings and a Funeral* and *Notting Hill* defined a type of English leading man in the 1990s.
Later work expanded his range to villains and character roles: He's giving very Hugh Grant in that interview.
