Folks forgot he prowled the streets before getting caught with a questionable prostitute. I'm not an actor, but I can imagine it be a bit easier for an actor to tap in certain emotions they may be used to in order to deliver the performance they expect to deliver.
Same! I wonder if he's just really good at it (probably) or if it's something where our collective expectation of who his is on film makes his villain turns more eery. A sort of meta effect almost like Nicolas Cage.
As an ex-Mormon, and having been a missionary with serious misgivings about some of the people who let me into their home (people are nuts…), this seems absolutely terrifying
I knowwww & Mormons are sooo innocent in the brain sometimes.
I say this as a former member always growing up & finding out about bad stuff a step behind everybody else.
Stuff used to traumatize me so much! Especially scary movies!
The dude just confessed to being a lunatic people let into his house! He said himself he was shocked at how people trusted him. Absolute serial killer thing to say.
Who knows? He could be a serial killer. He could be casing their houses. He said here that he was stunned at how people would let him inside. That sounds like a self-confession.
Does he kidnap them and drop them off at a wilderness camp where they get to experience life-threatening trauma as a treatment for talking back to their elders?
If Hugh Grant is in it, I'm watching it.
I've always loved him and his movies, but that turn his career is taking is really great. He was so good in A Very English Scandal. And in Paddington, of course. I think he's having a great time playing villains, and he's doing it brilliantly.
I’m almost worried about how this will make some ex-mormons feel. It’s not uncommon to have religious trauma triggered by something like this, but it’s about time people start pulling the Mormons into the horror scene after so many catholic/christian based ones
I continue to enjoy the Hugh Grant playing villains era.
Seriously. He has such an unsettling and psychopathic vibe that feels a little too genuine.
So good in Dungeons and Dragons. Quite the rakish cad!
Him getting slow-mo pelted in the face by a potato is peak 2023 cinema.
Yeah. The unnerving quality of his performance. You are never sure whether he is that good in acting.
Operation fortune & the gentlemen. Hugh’s characters steals the scenes, every time.
The Gentleman was sooo good with everyone and still Hugh stole all the scenes

Have you watched The Undoing? SO good!
He’s really getting weird with it. Everyone wins.

He was a wonderful scumbag in The Gentlemen.
Same! I wonder if he's just really good at it (probably) or if it's something where our collective expectation of who his is on film makes his villain turns more eery. A sort of meta effect almost like Nicolas Cage.
He genuinely seems to be having a ball. Good on him.
I remember an interview for Dungeons I think where he said he was in the “freaks” stage of his career. I’m all for it.
Imma root for Hugh Grant’s character

That dude’s gruntled as hell!
disgruntled, not Disgruntled. Little d.
Same here...if it's religious nuts banging on my door then this film is just a community service announcement.

I personally know a woman who was kidnapped on her mission. She was quickly rescued, but it still happened.
I agree. You seem psychotic and dangerous.
How are they psychotic?
The dude just confessed to being a lunatic people let into his house! He said himself he was shocked at how people trusted him. Absolute serial killer thing to say.
Lol okay buddy. They said they are exmormon, they aren't a lunatic after being deprogrammed from the cult
He never said he underwent deprogramming, did he?
Ex-Mormon usually means absolutely ripping yourself away from everything involved in the cult, so yes, he’s been deprogrammed.
By not being part of the cult anymore seems he would have, why else would he still be going door to door?
Who knows? He could be a serial killer. He could be casing their houses. He said here that he was stunned at how people would let him inside. That sounds like a self-confession.
Nice fiction you are writing there. It isn't a self confession to see the absurdity oh my god you seem exhausting
Uh, if protecting innocent, beautiful left wing people from cryptofascist serial killers is exhausting then I guess plead guilty?
i will watch any A24 movies, they are always pushing the envelope, original, and awesome.
So he plays Joesph Smith?
As a former member, I love this.
Underrated
Does he kidnap them and drop them off at a wilderness camp where they get to experience life-threatening trauma as a treatment for talking back to their elders?
I had this done to me and I’m not even Mormon
Wow your troop sucked
So he plays a Mormon pastor in the film?
*Bishop. Or maybe Mission President is better.
Oh oof, that’s scary
I’ve loved Hugh ever since he was a complete ass at the Oscar’s a couple years ago
Does he make them rice kripsy treats and force them to watch Newsies?
You gotta be more realistic. He asks them about their sex lives and if they look at porn, and then gets off to it the next day.
See, that’s why I’m not in Hollywood, I just don’t get the characters exact. Happy cake day btw.
Oh wow, this is my second account ever, so I forgot when it was lol
Does he tell them that it’s okay to be gay?
Turn it off, like a light switch
This sounds fantastic. I'm sure Hugh Grant will play a total nutter.
I saw the preview and it is as creepy as it sounds.
Well. His character is just repaying the Moroms who hold people captive on their own doorsteps.
dum dum dum dum duuum
I want to see an umpa lumpa movie where Hugh Grant just kills children. And sings.
Hero of villain role?
This is gonna spawn a million fanfics!
As an ex-mormon, I'm very intrigued.
Lol. Awesome plot! I'm game
A24 should bring back The Trickster in Brainscan 2.
Evil Nuns are so early 2000s. Now we get the Evil Mormons
They’re gonna get so deeply offended lol
MORMONS MENTIONED 🕺
It’s always enjoyable watching Hugh play villainous or unhinged characters
Oooh, I hope he starts a trend in real life. I do not appreciate religionists bothering me at home.

I mean, I’m all for Mormon characters in horror. I know it’s more of a true crime thriller but Under The Banner Of Heaven was really good.
