Grint, who plays Ron Weasley, was born
24 August 88. Ron Weasley's Birthday
is 1 March. He found out how to audition
from CBBC Newsround message boards.
Rupert, who is the eldest of one brother
and three sisters, feels he has a lot
in common with Ron Weasley. "When
I was reading the books, I always felt
I could relate to Ron," he says.
"I've got red hair, we both like
sweets, we both are scared of spiders
and we've both got lots of brothers
and sisters."
Rupert submitted a video tape of himself for his audition,
which included a rap song he made. "I made this videotape
[where] I dressed up as my drama teacher, who's a girl, so
it was kind of scary," he laughs. "Then, I made
this rap song of how much I wanted to be in the film."

FUNNY MENTIONABLES
Ron, like Daniel, enjoys not having
to do homework, and, of course, no detention.
They must've both been troublemakers.
But, his very favorite thing about working
with Harry Potter? The Candy! |
