Hugh Grant wows people with his performance in Heretic. The horror film has achieved an incredible feat in the history of post-COVID A24 films. Halloween fever is still present and could also favor psychological horror films. Horror films are doing well in theaters like Smile 2 and Terrifier 3. The opening day numbers for Grant’s film are there and they are positive for the film. Scroll below for details.

Grant is one of Hollywood’s greatest English actors with a fun personality. The actor has been working in cinema for four decades now. He is known for his charm as a romantic actor and later became a character actor. He is also a fan of the comic book genre. Grant was appreciated for his role as Oompa Loompa in last year’s hit film Wonka, directed by Timothee Chalamet.

For the uninitiated, Heretic arrived in theaters this Friday and opened with a bang. Previously, we reported how much the film collected from Thursday previews. However, according to Luiz Fernando’s report, he collected $4.3 million on the day it opens, including $1.2 million gross from Thursday’s previews. It was published in the United States by A24. The film would have recorded the third biggest opening day in the history of the A24.

The film is only below 2018’s Hereditary, which earned it $5.1 million, and the civil war $10.8 million, released this year. Heretic also beat Thanksgiving and Barbarian’s $3.8 million raw. It’s also above Abigail’s $4 million; however, it failed to beat Violent Night and Speak No Evil’s $4.9 million opening days. He also plans a 10 million dollars has $13 million first weekend. According to Deadline’s predictions, Hugh Grant could even steal the top spot from Tom Hardy starring Venom: The Last Dance this weekend.

Add the domestic cume of $4.3 million to his $2.55 million cume abroad, Heretic’s worldwide box office collection amounts to $6.86 million. It also received excellent ratings from critics on Rotten Tomatoes. Heretic was released in the United States on November 8.
