Quiz: How much do you know about Hugh Grant movies?

The actor this week settled a claim against owners of The Sun newspaper due to a risk of large legal costs.

ACTOR HUGH GRANT this week settled a High Court claim in the UK against The Sun newspaper after being warned of the £10 million (€11.7 million) price tag if his case proceeded to a trial.

Grant brought legal action against News Group Newspapers (NGN), the publishers of The Sun, after he alleged that he was being targeted by journalists and private investigators representing the organisation.

He claimed he was being targeted having previously settled a claim with the publisher in 2012 relating to the News Of The World. Grant was among a number of individuals, including the Duke of Sussex, bringing claims against NGN.

Grant’s claim was due to be considered at a trial in January next year, but a pre-trial hearing on Wednesday morning heard the case had recently been settled.

So, with Grant in the news this week, why not test your knowledge of the movies he’s been in over the years. Try our quiz
