Rupert Grint
Rupert Alexander Lloyd Grint (born 24 August 1988) is an English actor, who rose to prominence playing Ron Weasley, one of the three main characters in the Harry Potter film series. Grint was cast as Ron at the age of 11, having previously acted only in school plays and at his local theatre group. From 2001 to 2011, he starred in eight Harry Potter films alongside Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson.
Beginning in 2002, Grint began to work outside of the Harry Potter franchise, taking on a co-leading role in Thunderpants. He has had starring roles in Driving Lessons, a dramedy released in 2006, and Cherrybomb, a small budgeted drama released in 2010. Grint co-starred with Bill Nighy and Emily Blunt in Wild Target, a comedy. His first project following the end of the Harry Potter series was the 2012 anti-war film, Into the White, in which he stars as the main role.
Personal life
The actor enjoys a close friendship with his Harry Potter co-star Emma Watson adding that they have a sibling-like relationship, having known each other from an early age.[4] Like his character, he has arachnophobia, a fear of spiders.[66] Grint has an ice cream van.[67] He is also involved with charity, having donated items such as clothes[68] to charity auctions, as well as participating in the Wacky Rally in 2010 with James and Oliver Phelps, which raised money for Britain’s Royal National Lifeboat Institution.[69] He was one of more than 40 participants to produce designs for Chrysalis Collection for Keech Hospice Care in London. His piece, a painted butterfly, was auctioned off oneBay.com in March 2010.[70]
In May 2011, along with other celebrities, Grint took part in the ad campaign for Make Mine Milk promoting daily milk drinking. His ads can be seen on thousands of bus sides and posters across England, Scotland and Wales (Great Britain).[71] Rupert supports this year’s Little Star Award, in support of Cancer Research UK, joining Leona Lewis among others. “I think that it’s wonderful that Cancer Research UK is helping to bring a little bit of magic to the children’s lives in this way” said Rupert.[72]
Rupert Grint has been spotted with British actress Georgia Groome since early 2011. Although the pair have not publicly confirmed their relationship and maintain a low profile, they have been spotted together at a Camden, London pub for George Craig's LAD Club Night, V Festival and Grint's Las Vegas birthday bash in 2011 and most recently at the London Olympics
