Hugh Grant Stars as a Psychopath in Upcoming Horror Film 'Heretic'

The actor, known for romantic comedies, reveals his personal fear of horror films and demonic themes.

Hugh Grant plays Mr. Reed, a seemingly charming man who is revealed to be a psychopath, in the horror film 'Heretic.'
The film follows Mr. Reed as he lures two young Mormon women into his home under false pretenses, leading to a tense exploration of faith and doubt.
Grant, 64, admitted he avoids watching horror films due to his fear of demonic possession and the devil, though graphic violence does not unsettle him.
The actor is known for his roles in romantic comedies but has recently taken on darker, villainous characters in his career.
'Heretic' is set to debut in German cinemas on December 26, 2024.
