Rupert Grint was born in Hertfordshire, England, UK. He was only in one school play before being cast in "Harry Potter." He heard that casting was going on for "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", and he decided to go and try out.
Though, unlike most people who auditioned, Grint came in with a rap inspired by the character he was auditioning for, Ronald Weasley. He was soon cast in Harry Potter and has been in four out of the seven Harry Potter films as Ron Weasley, and has signed on for the fifth installment, "Order of the Phoenix."
Some facts about Grint is that he plays the guitar, his favorite school subject is chemistry, his favorite sport is football (soccer in US), and that he has bought a quad bike with his "Harry Potter" earnings.
Let's just say we hope Grint continues to be in the Potter films. |
