British humor! Hugh Grant made his first appearance at San Diego Comic Con for his role in Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves — and had a lot of fun with some cheeky innuendos.

When asked later in the day by a panel moderator if he had any prior interest in the role-playing game before accepting a part in the film, costar Michelle Rodriguez quipped, “You mixed it up with S&M,” before Grant replied, “She’s not wrong.”
