Before becoming famous, Grant tried his hand at a variety of different jobs, such as writing book reviews, writing radio commercials, and tutoring. Eventually, Grant returned to acting, performing in many plays in England. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Grant was offered roles in smaller films, such as “Bitter Moon”, directed by Roman Polanski, and intellectual films, such as “The Remains of the Day”.

It was the highest-grossing British film at the time, and Grant was awarded a Golden Globe for his role. Grant went on to make films such as “Mickey Blue Eyes”, “Bridget Jones’ Diary”, “Love Actually”, “Notting Hill” and many more.
