Hugh Grant as Mr. Reed in Heretic.
One of A24's most exciting new releases, Heretic is a religious horror with plenty of twists that has already earned almighty praise from those who have been lucky enough to see it. Debuting at the Toronto International Film Festival, the movie is set to make its US theatrical debut on November 8, 2024. Such is the film's praise, that it's already achieved the coveted certified fresh rating on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, with critics scoring the film an impressive 95%.
" Heretic is a clever twist on the religious horror genre , bolstered by three strong performances, particularly Grant’s gregarious yet haunting Mr. Reed. It certainly falls into a disappointing purgatory in the final third, but Beck and Woods’ approach to the genre is a refreshing one, exploring the hypocrisies of organized religion in a way we rarely see in mainstream cinema. And hey, Grant does a pretty great Jar Jar .

Grant has been on a roll lately with villainous performances , both in Paddington 2 and Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves , and his role in Heretic is a solid addition to this lineup.
