Ever wondered what one actor’s iconic lines would sound like coming from somebody else?<\/p>\n

More specifically, have you wondered what one of Hugh Grant<\/a><\/strong>‘s iconic lines from Love Actually<\/em> would sound like coming out of Matthew McConaughey<\/a><\/strong>‘s mouth? It’s safe to say that the two have completely different styles, have taken on completely different acting roles and well, to point out the obvious, one has a southern accent and the other a heavy British one. <\/p>\n

So, imagine that. On Friday, Jan. 18, the two actors made an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon<\/em> to chat bout finally getting to know each other while promoting their latest film The Gentlemen<\/em>, which also stars Charlie Hunnam<\/a><\/strong>, Henry Goulding<\/strong>, Michelle Dockery<\/a><\/strong>and Colin Farrell<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n

Toward the end of the interview, Jimmy Fallon<\/a><\/strong> told the two actors that he thought “it would be kind of fun” if they each respectively read a famous line from each other’s most iconic acting roles.<\/p>\n

Up first, McConaughey read a line of Grant’s from Love Actually<\/em><\/a>, “Who do you have to screw around here to get a cup of tea and a chocolate biscuit?” <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

While McConaughey initially read the line in a British accent, he then repeated the famous Love Actually<\/em> line in his normal voice, which of course, made that much more legendary. <\/p>\n

Hugh, on the other hand, had a simple line to recite from McConaughey’s Dazed and Confused<\/em> <\/strong>role. “Alright, alright, alright,” Grant said. <\/p>\n

And scene! <\/em><\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Last year, while promoting his new film, Grant also admitted that his character’s dance number in Love Actually<\/em><\/a> was his least favorite day on set. <\/p>\n

To refresh your memory, the dance number he’s referring to is when he delivers a memorable impromptu dance to The Pointer Sister<\/strong>‘s song “Jump (For My Love),” which takes place throughout the corridors of 10 Downing Street. <\/p>\n

“That’s going to be excruciating,” the star remembered thinking after learning about the scene. “And it has to be the most excruciating scene ever committed to celluloid.”<\/p>\n

He added, “I certainly dreaded filming it and [writer-director] Richard [Curtis] kept saying as the weeks went by\u2026he said, \u2018Don’t you think we better rehearse the dancing scene?’ And I said, \u2018Well, yeah, yeah, I gotta learn some lines. You know, my ankle hurts today.’ So, it was never rehearsed.” <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
