The Hollywood Reporter has posted some rather interesting news regarding Rupert Grint. They report that Rupert may be starring in a pilot for a CBS comedy Super Clyde, which centers on a meek, unassuming fast-food worker decides to become a super hero.

THR says that Rupert will play Clyde, “the well-meaning and sweet yet slightly neurotic guy who never feels like he really fits in. The avid comic book reader considers himself a borderline agoraphobic with mild to severe anxiety issues who wishes he were a super hero himself. When Clyde inherits a $100,000 a month inheritance from his long-dead eccentric Uncle Bill, he decides that the cash will be his secret super power and will use it only for good and reward the good-hearted.”

Remember, this is a rumor until Rupert’s reps confirm it. AND even if it is true it is not guaranteed that the show will actually be produced.  The pilot would have to be chosen as one of their new shows.

UPDATE: Thanks to Rupert-Grint.us we know this is, in fact, TRUE!
