In 2011, the last “Harry Potter” film was shown in cinemas. However, Ron actor Rupert Grint can imagine a comeback, as he reveals.
Will Rupert Grint (34) ever step in front of the camera as Ron Weasley again? While there are currently no concrete plans for a sequel to the “Harry Potter” film series, the Ron actor would be ready to embody his legendary character again. “Yes. I think if the timing was right and everyone would come back somehow,” he replied on Jan. 26 when asked by “This Morning” host Phillip Schofield (60)whether he could imagine a comeback as Ron Weasley.
‘Harry Potter’ was Rupert Grint’s ‘whole childhood’
The figure of the young sorcerer’s apprentice is very important to him. The chaotic student and Grint sort of became the same person over time, the actor explained. “It was my whole childhood,” said the 34-year-old.
In 2001, Rupert Grint, Daniel Radcliffe (33, Harry Potter) and Emma Watson (32, Hermione Granger) were seen together in the popular film series for the first time. The film adaptation of the first “Harry Potter” volume, “The Philosopher’s Stone”, became a worldwide success, seven more films followed. Last year, the trio returned to Hogwarts for a TV special to celebrate the film’s anniversary. The emotional reunion touched numerous fans around the world.
