Hugh Grant breaks down his episode of HBO's 'The Regime' and reveals whether or not he would ever go into politics himself.
"What I really see close up is that it's almost impossible to actually get anything done," the actor tells EW of the political sphere.with over seven years of experience in the entertainment industry. An award-winning journalist, she's written for Turner Classic Movies,, and more. She's worked at EW for six years covering film, TV, theater, music, and books.
We caught up with Grant, who has become increasingly politically active over the last two decades, to talk about Keplinger's real aims, what would've happened if he'd successfully regained power, and whether or not Grant would ever go into politics himself.ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: You partnered with Stephen Frears on this project. This is your third time working together.
So, I am quite interested in politics from that point of view. Keplinger certainly is an interesting specimen because it was always hard to decide if he really cared about the people or whether it was a bit of a pose and he was more interested in revenge on Elena, who toppled him, and whether he was, like so many politicians, something of a narcissist who just wanted to be up there as the great leader.
Did you talk with Stephen or creator Will Tracy at all about how he was toppled? He seems almost too smart for that. I did. It was an academic tome that was quite difficult to plow through. He was a typical case of someone who was pretty much a Marxist when he was teaching in university. Gradually, all that has been watered down. You see in that penultimate scene with Zubak. There's a slight hesitation when the Zubak says, "And we will get rid of the Americans." And he goes, "Yeah, yeah, we will." But he's watering everything down.

The regime plans to grant Venezuelan identity documents to the region's indigenous inhabitants, issue licenses for resource exploitation, and establish authorities to administer the territory.
