      @@charley15z Clearly, basing on the original animated film, Richard E. Grant totally looks to the part very similarly. Not to mentioned that Richard E. Grant is also a versatile actor of stage and screen. He also have a history of playing villainous characters particularly Dr. Zander Rice in Logan. The role of Judge Frollo is truly perfect for him.

    • @ajpat9620
      @ajpat9620 Před 5 lety +8

      @@charley15z In regards to singing, some stage and screen actors have the massive proficiency in their singing abilities. Look no further to some of the examples than Hugh Jackman and Eddie Redmayne for Les Miserables (also written by Victor Hugo, who also wrote The Hunchback of Notre Dame), and Ewan McGregor for Moulin Rouge! (McGregor also went on to star in another musical, Disney's live-action adaptation of Beauty and the Beast).
      Perhaps, Richard E. Grant might nail that singing ability but we'll see how it goes. For now, all we can say is that he's a perfect casting choice for the role of Judge Frollo. That role is definitely gonna suit him.

    Richard E Grant is great! I watch a lot of young people who become too cool for school in interviews but look at him, after decades of acting, still so hungry and excited about acting. I really admire that. I had a crush on him way back - Withnail and I days - and I think he's still good looking. I also really enjoyed him in Jack and Sarah. Jimmy Kimmel on the other hand seems a bit ridiculous. The way he asks Richard E Grant about knowing stuff, like we're out here in the bush in Africa. Tbh we have a much better world view than Jimmy does. I mean, he doesn't even know where Swaziland is. The thing I love about being from Africa is that we learned about other countries - from USA to UK to India and China. We didn't just learn about our own backyard, yet think we know everything.

    Bloody hell not before time he got a nomination America this guy has only been around since 1987 doing film and TV, do yourself a favour and go watch Withnail and I or Warlock two of his earliest roles with the first being his most fondly remembered by the British. He also played the Scarlet Pimpernel in a BBC mini series during the 90s which was top class, a role as head bad guy in a Matt Smith Xmas Dr Who episode and apart from that he's also been in Game of Thrones The Hitman's Body Guard with Ryan Reynold's and even Logan doing scenes with Hugh Jackman. He's been around enough.
