Biography
Rupert Grint was born in the small town of Harlow, located in the English county of Essex. The family also had four more children. The not-too-easy life was soon overshadowed by the divorce of the parents. And yet Rupert remained a rather cheerful and not discouraged child. He dreamed of becoming an ice cream man, but soon became interested in theater and thought about an acting career. On his luck, a casting was announced for the role in the movie based on the book "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone". Rupert was 11 years old at the time - just the right age for one of the roles.
Grint realized that he could well play Harry Potter's bosom red-haired friend, Ron Weasley. He approached the casting from the creative side and read a rap about why he should become this character. I liked the performance, and Rupert was approved for the role. The film, and with it the main actors, became famous all over the world. In addition, Grint was actually the only one of all the actors who was lucky enough to simultaneously star in the comedy "Thunder in Pants", which strengthened his acting skills.
The actor went on to star in films based on the Harry Potter franchise, the last of which (Deathly Hallows: Part Two) was released in 2011. During the breaks, Rupert Grint also found time to shoot in the films "In White Captivity", "Driving Lessons" and "Cherry Bomb", which, however, did not find much audience sympathy.
For quite a long time after the end of the contract on the shooting in "Harry Potter" Rupert was looking for his place in the cinema, but the actor is still unlucky with worthy roles. The experimental comedy Lunar Scam was followed by the series Big Jackpot and Urban Legends, which somewhat leveled Rupert's position in the film industry.
Personal life
Rupert Grint was not married. The actor was in several romantic relationships, but they all eventually broke up. According to the performer of the role of Ron Weasley, he is delighted with girls with an unusual sense of humor and extravagant appearance, although he realizes that not every one of them is suitable for starting a family. Grint is rumored to have dated Lily Allen, Kimberly Nixon and other celebrities.
Like his character Ron Weasley, Rupert Grint has a fear of spiders. He lives a well-to-do life, but devotes a lot of time and funds to charity.
