Rupert Grint: David Heyman Reflects On Harry Potter Journey.
In a new interview with the L.A. Times, Harry Potter producer David Heyman reflects back on the journey of working on the Harry Potter films, meeting Rupert Grint, Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson, and how proud he is to watch them grow from kids into these amazingly talented actors. The casting of Radcliffe as Harry, Grint as Ron Weasley and Emma Watson as Hermione Granger is especially impressive in hindsight. The trio’s selection was arguably one of the best show-business decisions over the past decade, considering the instant risks and eventual rewards. David had this to say about Rupert. Rupert is the most natural comedian of the bunch. I think that he is like an old person in a young person’s body. He is a wonderful eccentric, a distinct original.” This article is accompanied by a rare photo taken by Heyman of Rupert Grint and Daniel Radcliffe the first day they met. For more from David on his Harry Potter reflections please check out the entire article at L.A. Times Hero Complex blogs. Continue reading
