New interview with Rupert Grint
The Daily Record has published a new interview with actor Rupert Grint, who reveals that he recently failed his driver's test. He also wants to continue playing Ron in the Potter series through the seventh film.

I want to do all seven and hopefully that'll happen. It'll be weird when it's all finished because it's been a huge part of my life. I started when I was 11 and I'm 18 now.

You can read the full interview right here. Thanks to everyone who e-mailed with the tip!

Awww poor Rupert failed his driving test-that sucks. I really hope they all stay on until the 7th movie. It'd be so weird if they didn't. I'm really excited to see Driving Lessons!


Posted by _Amy_ Aug 24th 2006

Great interview. I can't wait to see Driving Lessons. As well has his kiss in HBP.

ruperts single......WOOOOOOHOOOO!!!!


Posted by prongs12433 Aug 24th 2006

*sighs* i love rupert.


Posted by Bagpiper Aug 24th 2006

It's kind of weird that he said he would date a fan. I don't know why, it just seems like a strange comment.


Posted by Arinia Aug 24th 2006

I hope he does all 7. It would be strange to watch someone else to play Ron.


Posted by tabitoo Aug 24th 2006

I failed my first drivers test....ran off the road actually. I can laugh about it now, but then.... Rupert is so down to earth. A normal guy, and so darn cute.


Posted by HarrylurvesGinny Aug 24th 2006

Oh he better do all 7! they can't change the actors!! especially Daniel, Emma and Rupert! It just wouldn't be the same! Although it would pain me, i would point blank refuse to see the movies if they changed the actors.


Posted by Hedwig949 Aug 24th 2006

An interesting interview. I like hearing from Rupert, especially since the other two get most of the attention when it comes to the Potter films.


Posted by EmAryaLu6 Aug 24th 2006

I liked the interview, after all Ron is one of my favourite characters in thje series, however the interview says Dan had his first kissing scene with Katie, while he did not. Apart of that, the interview was pretty cool...and I agree with you HarrylurvesGinny it would be SOOO bad if they changed the actors!!!


Posted by Jess_Malfoy Aug 24th 2006

Stay Rupert stay! Harry Potter wouldnt be the same without the original cast! It would be mental if the cast changed!


Posted by lumos Aug 24th 2006

i hope rupert gets 2 be ron for all 7 movies i dont think they would be that good if the actors were changed. rupert is my love xxxxx


Posted by spattergroit Aug 24th 2006

I. Love. Him. Oh if only I could be a few years older... and few thousand miles away...


Posted by Mrs_Finnegan Aug 24th 2006

I really hope he does all seven movies.


Posted by psu2003 Aug 24th 2006

I, too, failed my driver's test the first time. It happens to a lot of us! And I agree the original cast needs to stay, because I refuse to watch the films without them!


Posted by Flying_Cows Aug 24th 2006

LOL Rupey would be like 25 by the time they film the 7th one!! hahah! that'd be a huge difference between the first one.


Posted by thetimeturner731 Aug 24th 2006

i know we all hope he can do all seven as well! that would just be peachy. : )


Posted by layton Aug 24th 2006

Flying Cows you are wrong, at worst Book 7 will come out in theaters in Winter of 2010, Rupert would be 22.


Posted by Pink_Pygmy_Puff Aug 24th 2006

oh that is too funny i failed my drivers test the first time. I really hope he plays ron right thru to the end other wise it wouldn't be the same! same goes for ALL them!


Posted by zachattack Aug 24th 2006

I hope r ok Rupert u rock!! r one of my favorite actors u rock!!


Posted by PadfootBaby Aug 24th 2006

Hehe. The star of "Driving Lessons" failed his drivers test. Hehehe. We hope you stay for all seven, too, Rupe, it won't be the same without you or Emma or Dan. Good luck!!!


Posted by inomoreabouthpthnu Aug 24th 2006

Dont worry,,i think he will..if they ever ever re cast any of the characters because theyre "too old" for the 6th and 7th..i am refusing to see those movies...i will not stand for another character change..we already lost one dumbledore *sniffle*


Posted by drumline13 Aug 24th 2006

i do hope that they stay the actors for the movies but if they need another hermione im available at am_erica48462@yahoo.com


Posted by iluvharry1017 Aug 24th 2006

I hope Rupert does stay for all the movies because he plays Ron so well well and I can't imagine anyone else playing Ron.


Posted by kaze_ Aug 24th 2006

Ahahahaha. I love how Rupert failed his driver's test on *one* thing, just like Ron failed his Apparation test because of his eyebrow. So alike, those two.


Posted by Peevsie Aug 24th 2006

It is good to hear that Rupert wants to stay for all the films. I can't believe he'll be over twenty one years old when the filnal film is released! Happy Birthday, Rupert!


Posted by amandarose Aug 24th 2006

I love Rupert! He best stay for the rest of the movies, along with the other main chracters! and HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO HIM! even though it's not today, it just past and i think he deserves more than a side note.


Posted by TheWordsUnspoken Aug 24th 2006

i dont care if they change the trio! just as long as they dont change neville! ;) jk. it would totally suck if they changed any of the main characters... i don't know if id even go see the movie. lol


Posted by quidditch7 Aug 24th 2006

they all have to do all seven!at least he's doing the sixth, it would make no sense to switch people on the last movie!


Posted by ginnyluvr Aug 24th 2006

AWESOME!!!Thats cool... i LOVE RUPERT!


Posted by deirdrexgrint Aug 24th 2006

oh he NEEDS to do all seven! so does everyone else! these actors/actresses have made harry potter even bigger than it already was! at this point when i watch the movies they actually are the characters. and of course you cant just change who you are!


Posted by flipgirl Aug 24th 2006

Wow, from eleven to eighteen. That's a long time acting in Harry Potter movies. At least it's worth while and a good thing to do for living. Go Rupert!


Posted by Dan_fan Aug 24th 2006

Poor Rupert, he didn't pass his driving test.


Posted by GorgeousGinnyxoxoxox Aug 24th 2006

I'm glad Rupert wants to do all 7 Harry Potter movies!!!!!!!! No one else can play Ron as good as him!!!!!! YOUR ROCK RUPERT!!!!!!!


Posted by tabitoo Aug 24th 2006

DRIVING LESSONS, Official trailer is at youtube, It show's the kissing/bedroom scene. I think Rupert is GREAT in it. At least from what the trailer shows. Also on youtube theres a bit where Rupert is talking about the kissing scene, its so funny. He has a room full of people cracking up. Awsome. He's just too cute for words.


Posted by Chrisell Aug 24th 2006

Wow. I really hope he does all 7!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think he will!


Posted by DecemberDrops Aug 24th 2006

Rupert is wonderulf as Ron; he has a wonderful, unique approach. I mean, not everyone can play Harry, Ron, and Hermione, and Emma, Dan, and Rupert are wonderful!


Posted by Grey Aug 24th 2006

I don't understand how all the cast always say stuff like "Yeah, I think I'll do the rest of the movies. You know... maybe." Why say that? Is there a purpose to that? Or is it just to keep us on our toes?


Posted by hp323232 Aug 24th 2006

cul rupert, the movie looks awsum i wanna go see it!!!


Posted by dobbyroxmysox Aug 24th 2006

i hope that the rest of the gang stay till the 7th movie...and i unfortunatley failed my driving test too........grrrrrrrrr


Posted by mysduende Aug 24th 2006

Wow. How'd they get him to talk that much - veritaserum? I can't believe he got beyond 'that's wicked' or 'I'm like Ron, I don't like spiders either.' He actually carried on a conversation.

"Celebrities, they fail driving tests too."
