Thanks to Rupert-Grint.us we know that Rupert Grint has been confirmed for a new role in the film The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman. Screendaily.com reports that Rupert along with  Shia Labeouf, Mads Mikkelsen, Melissa Leo, James Buckley, Vincent D’Onofrio and Evan Rachel Wood are attached to the film. Collider.com posted a ysnopsis of the film which can be read below!

Charlie Countryman (LaBeouf) was just a normal guy…until he fell in love with the one girl who will probably get him killed. When Charlie meets the absolutely irresistible Gabi she’s already been claimed by Nigel, an insanely violent crime boss with a gang of thugs at his disposal. Armed with little more than his wit and naïve charm, Charlie endures one bruising beat down after another to woo Gabi and keep her out of harm’s way. Finally his exploits of blind valor create such a mess that he’s left with only one way out; to save the girl of his dreams, must Charlie Countryman die?

Voltage is producing with Bona Fide Productions and Moby will score the film with Fredrik Bond directing. The movie will begin filming in Romania on May 21 2012.

Today Emma Watson revealed via her Twitter account that the trailer for her new film, The Perks of Being a Wallflower will debut at the MTV Movie Awards Pre-Show.  She says:

In other non-Potter related news, Rupert Grint’s war film Into the White will be released on DVD in Norway on August 28, 2012. No other release dates (theatrical or home video) are known, but if the film will be released internationally we will be sure to post it here.

Since we will not have our actual photos and videos up for a few days I thought I would let everyone know what is coming from the Grand Opening of Warner Bros. Studio Tour London – The Making of Harry Potter. Myself, Feltbeats and Harry Potters Page worked together to get photos and interviews with the stars.

We interviewed Tom Felton, Rupert Grint, Bonnie Wright, Harry Melling, Nick Moran, David Bradley, Nick Dudman, Mike Newell, Director David Yates, and Producers David Heyman, and David Barron. We also have footage of Alfonso Cuaron, Evanna Lynch, George Harris and a few others. In addition to interviews we also spotted David Thewlis, Natalia Tena, Warwick Davis, Alfie Enoch, Helen McCrory, Chris Rankin.

Just as a teaser we asked Harry Melling (Dudley) what it was like moving from playing a muggle in Harry Potter to a wizard in the last series of Merlin!

Photos and video will be up as soon as possible when I get home! We will also have a video from the press conference held last Thursday when WB sends it over! So make sure to stay tuned!

Variety is reporting that Rupert Grint is one of the newest editions to the cast of The Drummer. The Drummer is an indie music biopic about Beach Boys drummer Dennis Wilson who passed away in the early 80s.  The film will go through the last six years of the musicians life and will start filming in mid-June.

Rupert is set to play Stan Shapiro, a mail room intern at William Morris, who befriended Wilson during the last few years of the musician’s life.

Rupert’s reps confirmed the news to Rupert-Grint.net earlier today.

As part of his promotion for Into the White, Rupert Grint spoke to the Daily Mail about Harry Potter, his brother, his ice cream truck and more!

‘I did go through an anxious period after Harry Potter ended. Of course I always knew it would come to an end. But it took some getting used to.  Now I’m starting to enjoy the freedom. I can afford to choose my acting roles carefully and I’m able to enjoy my leisure time. I’m perfectly happy tootling around town in my ice-cream van, haring up the motorway in my Audi, or messing around on my hovercraft in the back garden.’

Of his Ice Cream Van, Rupert says:

‘My first ambition was to become an ice-cream man, which is why I bought the Bedford van. Not long after I first got it, I pulled into a pub to do a U-turn and there were eight kids with their pocket money out, hoping to buy a 99 or whatever. But I had nothing to give them. I’ve learnt my lesson since then. I keep my van well stocked. It’s got a proper machine that dispenses Mr Whippy ice cream and I buy my lollies wholesale – 50 for a tenner – so I never run short. I’m not allowed to sell my merchandise. I’d need a licence for that.  I tend to avoid July and August, but the rest of the year I’ll drive around the local villages and if I see some kids looking like they’re in need of ice creams, I’ll pull over and dish them out for free. They’ll say, “Ain’t you Ron Weasley?” And I’ll say, “It’s strange, I get asked that a lot.”

Rupert also attended the Oslo premiere of Into the White today and coverage on that may be seen at Rupert-Grint.net!
