Deadline is reporting that Rupert Grint is set to star in the television adaption of Snatch. Snatch was originally a film by Guy Richie that starred Brad Pitt and Jason Statham. The 10 episode series will air online in 2017 at Crackle which is similar to Hulu and Netflix. According to Deadline:

Snatch will carry the spirit of the setting in the film, while creating a new world with new characters. Inspired by a real life heist in London, Snatch, centers on a group of twenty-something, up-and-coming hustlers who stumble upon a truck load of stolen gold bullion and are suddenly thrust into the high-stakes world of organized crime. The boys must quickly learn to navigate the treacherous waters of London’s underworld as rogue cops, gypsy fighters, international mobsters and local villains descend.

Grint will play the dynamic, frustratingly chaotic and utterly posh con man, Charlie Cavendish. Scott plays Vic Hill, who continues the con game from inside prison; Westwick plays night club owner Sonny Castillo.
