During an appearance on The Graham Norton Show, Hugh playfully said Trump “always wanted to be in my stuff” when the host brought up the former president’s name.
“He played a bit part as himself in a romantic comedy I did with Sandra Bullock,” Hugh said.
He’s talking about the 2002 romantic comedy Two Weeks Notice.
Yup, that’s right. The 45th president who criticizes Hollywood wasn’t just a random cameo in Home Alone 2, The Little Rascals, Zoolander, The Nanny, and The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air — he was opposite Hugh in the popular rom-com.
While Trump’s 20 seconds of screen time were Academy Award-winning material (I kid), Hugh wasn’t moved at all by Trump’s inclusion, barely remembering his presence altogether.
“But the fact is that I don’t really remember him very well. The night he came, I had a bet with Sandy that I could make the chairman of Warner Bros. cry by 9 p.m.,” Hugh continued.
“So I’m afraid Donald Trump didn’t really register,” Hugh said.
Graham asked if Trump was at least nice to him, and Hugh replied, “All I remember is that a day or two afterward, I got a call to say, ‘You’ve been made a member of Trump National New York [a golf club],'” but the Wonka actor didn’t seem to care at all.
“I don’t remember him greatly as a person,” he said.

In short, Hugh Grant when asked about Donald Trump:
No, but seriously Graham was like, but y’all at least got along, and Hugh was like:
