Rupert attended the V Festival today and at one point was seen wearing a horse head mask (to disguise himself). You can see photos of him here! The telegraph also has a short interview with him from the festival.
After almost a decade playing the wholesome Ron in Harry Potter Rupert Grint may feel entitled to a change of scene. Grint, who turns 21 today, tells me that for his next role he would like to play a villain.
“I have always played the good guys so far,” he says. “I’d love to play a baddy and maybe beat some people up – do something different. I’m definitely a character actor.” Unlike Daniel Radcliffe, who memorably disrobed for his performance in Equus, it may be some time before Grint takes to the stage. He laments: “I would love to do some theatre but I’ve really only done school plays.”
Daniel Radcliffe and Tom Felton were interviewed on Test Match Special on BBC Radio 5 live. The interview can be downloaded here and you can see photos of Dan and Tom here.
DanRad: Listen, I really do see parallels between cricket and acting. Tom: You mention this all the time on set… DanRad: I know, I know… Tom: ALL THE TIME! DanRad: I know, I’m dull.
