Hugh Grant at ‘Pirates’ premiere (IN2EAST AFRICA)


LONDON (AP) — Hugh Grant is stepping away from his usual romantic fare – to walk the plank.

The British actor is starring in “The Pirates! In an Adventure with Scientists,” his first animated film role. He plays a pirate captain – called Pirate Captain – on a quest to win the Pirate of the Year Award. 

He joined co-star David Tennant at the premiere of the latest adventure from Aardman Animations, creators of “Wallace and Gromit,” in London on Wednesday. The “Notting Hill” actor admitted he doesn’t see many similarities between himself and his pirate persona. “I looked at it and I thought “well I’m nothing like that, this is terrible casting.”

So I actually had to adapt myself, and I had to do a bit of acting for once,” he joked.
