Hugh Grant has expressed skepticism towards big-budget Hollywood films, stating he has turned down several roles due to concerns about quality and creative independence. In a recent interview with Vanity Fair, Grant noted that he often felt like 'a big corporation was breathing down the neck' of filmmakers, leading him to reject projects where he perceived significant pushback from non-creative executives. He highlighted 'Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves' as an exception, praising its quality but questioning the lack of market research that may have contributed to its underwhelming box office performance. Grant is set to reprise his role as Daniel Cleaver in the upcoming film 'Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy', a project he felt a stronger connection to compared to the previous installment, which he declined due to character misalignment. He emphasized that despite initial doubts about his role in the new film, he connected emotionally with the script. Grant's experiences illustrate a preference for projects that allow for creative freedom and quality storytelling.
