February 7th, 2010, 10:31pm–Thanks very much to Laura for finding a new photo of Rupert Grint as Tony along with Bill Nighy as Victor Menard. Now this is very similar to the one that was posted months back, but you can see quite a few differences in the new photo that is also slightly larger! You can view the photo here in our galleries.
Remember that the slated release date for Wild Target is April 9th in the UK. However this is subject to change. We will keep you informed on all things Wild Target so be sure to keep checking back!
February 4th, 2010, 6:38 pm–Several small reports were published recently reporting that Rupert was on the top list of celebrity money makers. Now we usually don’t post about this sort of thing but we couldn’t resist mentioning this one coming from movieline.com. The heading reads Rupert Grint Made More Money Than George Clooney! Poor Clooney.
Excerpt: The young actors each took home $30 million for the two-part franchise finale Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Clooney earned an estimated $22 million total for projects including Up in the Air, The Men Who Stare at Goats, The American and roughly $5 million for appearing in foreign commercials. It’s a recession! A Lake Como villa owner’s gotta do what a Lake Como villa owner’s gotta do.
And again Rupert’s agency is going to contact us as soon as they are 100% on his attendance for the Wizarding World event. We took the post down because we don’t want to get your hopes up if he can’t attend. Feel free to contact us with any questions at staff@rupert-grint.us. Speaking of this event, NBC is giving fans a chance to win a trip to the grand opening of the Harry Potter theme park! For more information visit their website here. And you still have time to enter our Biggest Wheezy contest and the Cherrybomb video campaign. Come on guys!!!
February 3rd, 2010, 2:56 pm– We recently reported that Rupert Grint’s film Cherrybomb picked up a distribution deal in the UK with Universal’s indiVISION and is set to have a nationwide release according to Launching Films. Well in a new article with Rupert’s co-star Robert Sheehan, The LeinsterExpress further confirms that Cherrybomb is up for a general release in “early 2010″. This does mean nationwide in most cities so things are on the right track. We will have some more news concerning Cherrybomb’s release for you soon so keep checking back for updates.
Also, please send in your submissions for the Cherrybomb Video Campaign to staff@rupert-grint.us! Videos, pictures; of yourself or a poster… just make sure there is a message saying “I want Cherrybomb in (insert name of your country)” in your language! If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
UPDATE: SORRY GUYS, about the post concerning Rupert’s attendance of the Harry Potter Theme Park! There was a little misunderstanding in Rupert’s Agency! They just contacted us again: Rupert has NOT been confirmed yet. We will let you know more as soon as possible though!
February 2nd, 2010, 9:08am– As we just told you, Rupert Grint has been featured in French magazine ONE along with his co-stars Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson, where they talk about the ending of the Harry Potter franchise.
Thanks to our lovely staffer Anna, you can now enjoy the scans in our Gallery!
Anna also translated the two additional quotes from Rupert:
Before we started shooting the last two movies, I didn’t realise that the Harry Potter adventure would end one day. In the past ten years, playing Ron has become my everyday life, and I almost had the feeling it would last forever! But now, I have really become aware that we arrived at the end of the path. And it’s weird because I have that feeling that I will draw a line under my childhood, because I grew up in the set of Hogwarts school. Having said that, I am ready for the second part of my career and I can’t wait to get there.
Rupert also said:
Even if the two movies come from the same book, they are going to be very different, in their tone as well as in their visual aspect. The first part is more a road movie where Harry and the others are on the run whereas the second part will be very epic.
Also, you can start sending in your submissions for our fanzine Grintastic! Articles, graphics, videos… simply send it in to grintasticonline@googlemail.com, or email us if you have any question! Thanks.
February 1st, 2010, 7:08pm–A new interview with Rupert Grint and his Harry Potter co-stars Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson has been released by French Magazine One where they discuss different challenges of filming Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. There is a quote by Rupert discussing Dan and how well he performed during some physical scenes even when he became sick.
“We shot a lot of physical scenes. For Daniel, filming was very complicated. But he never complained … When he became sick because of filming conditions, he was okay and he never complained …”
Emma again comments on the kiss with Rupert.
To kiss Rupert in front of cameras will be the strangest experience for me since I’ve played in Harry Potter. He and I are frightened about this scene, and would like to do it quickly. But the hardest is coming … I have to kiss Dan ! It’s a scene where Ron imagines a kiss between Harry and Hermione.”
“We haven’t filmed the epilogue yet, in which we can see the future of Harry, Ron and Hermione 19 years later. At the beginning, producers would’be liked to replace us, but they finally kept us. We will look like 40-year-olds. I’m very impatient to see that !”
Thanks to HarryPotterForever.Fr for the news. Deathly Hallows filming wraps up in May and part one will be out in cinemas this November!
And in other news, if you missed it we have confirmation that Cherrybomb and Wild Target are both set to be released in April. We will keep you updated on any changes. And our video campaign was an amazing success!!! We will update you soon on this too but the deadline is February 7th so hurry up and get in those last minute submissions! Thanks to all who participated to help make this what it is.
A Release Date For Rupert Grint’s Wild Target and Cherrybomb?January 30th, 2010, 4:01pm–It has just been revealed that the UK will be enjoying Rupert Grint in theaters quite early! According to Launching Films, Wild Target is scheduled for a release on April 9th, 2010. Incidentally, this also claims that Cherrybomb will be released on that day too! We currently have no legit confirmation on this, but we are looking into it. However the website does seem pretty accurate with most release dates. Could a trailer for Wild Target not be far behind? Let’s hope so because I know we’re all looking forward to seeing Tony in action!
Don’t forget that we’re still running our contest to win a Ron Hottopic shirt and an autograph from Rupert himself! And there is still time to get your video/picture contribution in for the newest Cherrybomb campaign!
UPDATE: We can confirm by both Rupert’s agency and Launching Films representatives that these are the scheduled release date for Wild Target and Cherrybomb at this time.. Now we will keep you updated on any changes as this is still a possibility. Either way looks like both films are coming to us earlier than expected. Excited??!!!
January 28, 2010, 1:49 PM–- A few days ago we shared with you an exclusive first look of Rupert Grint in a special Bafta photo- shoot he took part in to promote young British talent with magazine InStyle UK, which is available as of today.
Now InStyle have just released a little behind-the-scenes clip from the shoot, which you can see on their website. You will catch Rupert pose along with his Harry Potter co-stars Bonnie Wright and Jamie Campbell Bower as well as Dev Patel (Slumdog Millionaire). Rupert’s part begins at about 1:10 into the clip.
Make sure to get your copy of InStyle today! A scan has already been in our Gallery for a few days but for your pleasure our staffer Ivana scanned a larger version for you. Click here.
As we already told you last night, Rupert was unable to attend yesterday’s InStyle party as he was filming Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows very late last night.
Thanks to everyone who submitted these news while I was busy with the news about Cherrybomb’s UK Distributor! See below
Update: Oh yeah we have a scan of Bonnie. If anybody needs it feel free to email us at staff@rupert-grint.us. Edit: Thanks Laura for uploading it on you-tube for you here. Rupert looks like he’s freezing doesn’t he? Poor thing.
January 28th, 2010, 5:54am– As we told you earlier this month, Universal Pictures (UK) was said to be the distributor for Rupert Grint’s film Cherrybomb in the United Kindom! We now have a litte update on this:
It is in fact indiVISION, a sub-division of United Pictures, who will be in charge of Cherrybomb’s theatrical release as they have just announced.
indiVision describes their audience like this:
indi VISION is for film savvy fans who enjoy films outside of the mainstream – fans with a different perspective.
We will, of course, let all you savvy guys know more as soon as possible!
Oh, and while we’re at it, have you all submitted you videos and pictures for the latest challenge of our campaign? If not, do it today to staff@rupert-grint.us. Thanks!
January 26th, 2010, 4:05pm–Some news concerning two of Rupert Grint’s upcoming films, Wild Target and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 1 and part 2 has come to light! In Harry Potter news, The Hollywood Reporter - a respected industry magazine – is reporting that both Deathly Hallows movies will be presented in 3D! In years past only parts of the film were made into 3D, but following the success of Avatar, which is being shown in 3D, Warner Bros. has decided that both Harry Potter movies would do well to be in 3D too. Though they are currently not confirming this, an announcement is expected soon. You can read all about it here!
In other movie news concerning Wild Target, Protagonist Pictures has announced that the film will be shown at this years European Film Market on February 13th and February 15th. Currently these screenings aren’t available to the public and only open to industry folks interested in buying films. Hopefully more good news for the film opening all around the world will come out of this!
Update: We spoke to Warner Bros. senior publicist. No confirmation yet on this news so we will keep you guys updated.
January 23rd, 2010, 1:23 pm– Rupert Grint is currently attending the football game Tottenham Hotspurs vs. Leeds United at White Hart Lane! Matthew Lewis, known as Neville Longbottom from the Harry Potter films, has just left a lovely picture of himself and Rupert on his Twitter. Or check it out in our Gallery here!
We already learned back in September about Rupert being a huge and long-time fan of the Spurs.
Keep your fingers crossed for a win, and for more updates on this event!
Also, don’t forget to check out the scan from InStyle magazine (out in stores on 28 January) and the updates on Wild Target!
