Why Hollywood Won't Cast Hugh Grant Anymore

1994’s Four Weddings and A Funeral propelled Hugh Grant to superstardom and made him into a rom-com darling, heartthrob, and bona fide Hollywood superstar. You couldn’t watch a rom-com and not watch Grant be a loveable loser or guy you hate to love.

However, today you don’t see much of the rom-com crown prince on the big screen. Where has he gone? Has Hollywood gotten enough of Grant? He wouldn’t be the first one to make such an appearance in Tinseltown one day, and the next day, he's not.

But it seems Hollywood won't cast Hugh Grant anymore. Why has this come to be? Find out how by watching this video.

Hugh Grant can get whatever roles he wants in the "over 50" category. He'll be fine.

And if he doesn't want to make movies anyway, doesn't that make this video pointless?

"Why Hollywood Won't Cast Hugh Grant Anymore As He Is At This Very Moment Starring in a Very Prominent Role."
Amazing work.

[noemistephanie]

how is having kids a reason for his career declining?

[paulawilliams]

So, Hollywood won't cast Grant anymore yet the video ends with his latest movie?? Complete shit.

[Marleycombe]

What a stupid presumption. Hugh Grant is an actor, the reason why he doesn't do much in the way of American film is more about car chases and explosions and actually doesn't require actors anymore. In other words Americans for the last decade or so have made crap movies.

The Man from U.N.C.L.E. grossed $45.4 million in North America - finishing third at the box office, $5 million below expections - as of 10.22.2015, but globally it grossed $109.6 million (and it has Rotten Tomatoes score of 68%)...which to me doesn't strike as a complete box
office bomb.

i love his acting, he needs to be cast in films that have actually have good plot and script. I'm certain that audiences all over the world will welcome him with open arms once that happens.

[danniespokes]

are you really going to over look notting hill, love actually + bridget jones?

Hugh Grant is a world class actor. I loved him in Mickey Blue Eyes and About a Boy, which he was perfectly cast. Notting Hill was also great. He is also a great talker and intellect. I think all this bullshit about prostitutes and love children is irrelevant and non of anyones business. I would cast him is a serious role and i think he would be perfect in this.

In every interview I've read with Hugh Grant over many years, he says some version of "I never set out to be an actor, just sort of fell into it and had big success, it was easy, so there you go. I don't really like it." He's also said that of all the characters he has played, he most resembles the one from About A Boy. So that's the reason he's not acting much any more. Forget all that other fluff. Also, at the time, he was lauded for his handling of his sex-with-a-hooker scandal. But now I know I can start a YouTube channel where I just make stuff up.

I love him. And my favorite film was Notting Hill. He's fabulous.
And then there was Love Actually. Love love love.

[Confusedadult]

You are blaming his decline now one something that happened over 20 years ago???

[tashanaive]

Two adults having consensual sex being illegal is pathetic, Don´t you have real crimes. How many cops are hunting those poor men instead of dealing with real criminals? And one grown up man shaming another one for having sex is pitiful. Realy, take care of your own pants, pal!

[thatgirlcourtneyx]

I'm sad he won't be in the new Bridget Jones's Baby :(

[LuvSlushie]

How dare you say that about Rowan Atkinson at 3:43!

Hugh Grant was in "The Gentleman" which was released in January 2020. He definitely hasn't disappeared.

[Tubie]

Sense and Sensibility is my fave. He is amazing in pretty much everything he does and will always have an audience with me :)

[JustAnotherFangirl]

I want him to make more movies, I love all of his characters.

'Maurice' is my favorite, followed by 'Four Weddings and a Funeral' and most in 'Love, Actually' he is still the best of the 'New' actors since Cary Grant
