Actor Hugh Grant is not a big fan of his past films but he has certain specific issues with his character in the 1999 rom-com 'Notting Hill' according to TheHollywood Reporter.
Hugh Grant played William "Will" Thacker in the Roger Michell directorial film which stars Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant with Rhys Ifans Emma Chambers Tim McInnerny Gina McKee and Hugh Bonneville in supporting roles.
He said he thinks his character is "despicable".
When I'm flicking the channels at home after a few drinks and this comes up I just think 'Why doesn't my character have any balls?' he said.
The film directed by Roger Michell features Anna Scott (Roberts) falling in love with William the owner of a bookshop in Notting Hill however the paparazzi's fascination with her complicates their relationship.
Grant said: "I've never had a girlfriend or indeed now wife who hasn't said why the hell did you stop her? What's wrong with you?"
In 2016 Grant shared that he doesn't "hate" all his movies although he just finds it excruciating watching himself onscreen. "I've read that I hate all my films. That's not true, the films are often great. It's just me that I loathe."
