Hugh Grant Reflects on Acting with Trump in Romantic Comedy
- Hugh Grant discussed his experience with Donald Trump during the filming of 'Two Weeks Notice' on 'The Graham Norton Show.'
- Grant was focused on a personal bet during filming, which led to him not remembering Trump well.
- Despite his limited recollection, Grant maintains a neutral stance on Trump, describing him as 'very civil' in a later interview.
In a recent interview on 'The Graham Norton Show,' Hugh Grant discussed his experience working with Donald Trump during the filming of the romantic comedy 'Two Weeks Notice' in the early 2000s. Grant admitted that he does not have a strong recollection of Trump, as he was preoccupied with a bet involving making a Warner Bros. chairman cry. Despite Trump's cameo in the film, Grant's focus on this personal challenge overshadowed his interaction with the future president. He later received a call informing him of his membership at Trump National Golf Club Westchester, but he still does not remember Trump well as a person. In a separate conversation with Stephen Colbert in 2018, Grant described Trump as 'very civil' during their golf outing, emphasizing that his upbringing prevents him from speaking negatively about someone he has worked with. This reflects a broader trend of celebrities navigating their relationships with political figures, balancing personal experiences with public perceptions.
