Hugh Grant Plays a Disturbed Trickster Who Holds Mormons Captive in A24's Heretic Trailer


Hugh Grant is taking on his first horror-movie role since the late 1980s in A24's Heretic trailer - watch here

From A Quiet Place writer-directors Scott Beck and Bryan Woods, Grant plays the sinister Mr. Reed, an older gentleman who at first seems harmless when he answers the door for a pair of young Mormon missionary women (Sophie Thatcher and Chloe East) spreading the word about Jesus Christ. Throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, Grant mainly played lighthearted and humorous roles in beloved rom-coms like Notting Hill, Four Weddings and a Funeral, Love Actually, Brigit Jones’ Diary, and Two Weeks Notice. Chloe East has been in Steven Spielberg’s 2022 film The Fablemans, Disney’s Liv and Maddie series, True Blood, 2020’s The Wolf of Snow Hollow, 2021’s Generation, and 2024’s Popular Theory.
