Hugh Grant, the quintessential rom-com charmer, is taking a decidedly dark turn. This Wednesday, he’ll appear on Late Night with Seth Meyers to discuss his role as the chilling Mr. Reed in the new horror flick, Heretic. Trading witty banter for sinister machinations, Grant’s character ensnares two missionaries in a deadly game, testing their faith and will to survive. This appearance offers a glimpse into what’s shaping up to be a significant departure for the actor, a move away from the charming fops he’s so well known for.
Also joining Seth Meyers on Wednesday is Jonathan Bailey, fresh from his role as Fiyero in the much-buzzed-about Wicked movie. Considering the fervent anticipation surrounding this adaptation, any tidbits he offers are sure to be devoured by fans.
So, if you’re curious to see Hugh Grant discuss venturing into the unsettling world of horror, or eager to hear Jonathan Bailey talk Wicked, set your DVRs. Or, you know, stay up late. It could be worth it.
Late Night with Seth Meyers airs on Wednesday, November 13 at 12:35 am ET on NBC.
