“One thing I didn’t want to do was have a floppy-haired British guy,” series co-creator Mindy Kaling said, referring to Grant. Then the idea for a number of “gentle subversions” came to her, including depicting “a love story between an African-American woman and a British-Pakistani guy.” The “Four Weddings and a Funeral” movie followed the ups and downs of an all-white group of close British friends as they search for, miss out on, and lose love. It brought Grant a Golden Globe and launched a series of romantic comedies written by Richard Curtis.
