Hugh Grant, Chris Elliot & Marc Lawrence Work Out The Rewrite by Brad Balfour Whether as a heartthrob or villain, the 54-year-old Hugh Grant plays most of his characters with a wry approach, imbuing his alter-egos with a genial humanity.

He brings the same maturity to director Barry Sonnenfeld’s droll new family comedy, RV.
