Hugh Grant says that he has very few friends in Hollywood, but that could be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on how you see it. In fact, the handsome British actor says Renee Zellweger is perhaps the only co-star from his past that he’s never had a falling out with. The two starred in the 2001 romantic comedy Bridget Jones’ Diary together. Here’s what he has to say.
In a new interview with Sirius XM’s The Jess Cagle Show, Hugh opened up about some of his ongoing relationships with his co-stars and noted that Renee is one of the few women that he’s worked with in the past that he still keeps in touch with.
Hugh Grant Says He Has Very Few Friends Left In Hollywood
“I love Renée. Uh, she’s one of the few actresses I haven’t fallen out with,” Hugh told the host. “And, we, we got on very well together and, we still exchange long emails.”
He continued: “Hers in particular, at least 70 pages each, interesting stuff, but quite hard to decipher and, she’s a properly good egg and a genius. Did you see her Judy… Garland? About as good as acting gets.”
Hugh also had nothing but praise for his The Undoing co-star Nicole Kidman. He even talked about how she got around her Australian accent for the show.
“Nicole has always, she’s done loads of films with an American accent… people think of her as half and half,” he explained. “As for me, it’s not that I can’t do an American accent it’s, for me, I like to know precisely, very precisely, who characters are and where they’ve come from, what school did they go to? Which part of that, which town did they live in? What did the dad do for a living? What are their social aspirations or not aspirations? And I know all that with British characters, and I really don’t know anything about those kinds of, that kind of detail in America.”
