Grant's "Persuasion" role is starring as Anne's father, Sir Walter Elliot. A man known for his selfishness and vanity, it's Sir Walter's spending and expensive tastes that put his family into financial difficulties. This wouldn't be a stretch for Grant, who has played similar characters with Clifford in 1997's "Spice World," George in 2001's "Gosford Park," Lord Barkis Bittern in 2005's "Corpse Bride," and Allegiant General Enric Pryde in 2019's "Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker."
