Rupert Grint: Cherry Bombs Away!

Rupert Grint: Cherry Bombs Away!

Harry Potter star Rupert Grint shows a new gritty side to his acting range in the new UK drama, Cherry Bomb.

The Sun reports the 19-year-old British actor is currently in Belfast still filming the rest of the film for BBC. Cherry Bomb follows teenagers Malachy (Grint), Luke (Robert Sheehan) and Michelle (Kimberley Nixon) as they embark on a wild weekend of drink, drugs, shop-lifting and stealing cars. But what starts out as a game turns deadly serious when the three discover that they can’t get off the wild ride they’ve set in motion.

Rupert will reprise his role as Ron Weasley in Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince, due out in November.

Remember when costar Daniel Radcliffe went buck naked to show off his edgy side for his post-Harry Potter acting career?

WHAT DO YOU THINK of Rupert Grint’s new look?

Su-hex. Machine.

That is all.

When I saw this at first I honestly thought he was badly hurt because It looks so real. Really looking forward to “Cherrybomb” because It looks set to be a great film. Love love love Rupert….he’s soo hot, also kind and caring and down to earth! Prefer Rupert to Dan a million times over. He’s a better actor. He can do both comedy and serious acting which shows how diverse his talent Is. Dan seems be most comfortable with serious acting which Is fine but means he will find It harder than Rupert to get work after Harry Potter. Congratulations Rupert, you deserve all this success as you’re the most talented of the trio but unfortunately the one people are less interested In. That will change after Harry Potter, though…just wait and see.

holy crap rupert is amazing!

he´s soooo amazing ^^ can´t wait to see the new Harry Potter!!

Dayyyyyyum dude

HE IS SSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!

I freaking love him. Good for him for finding projects outside of the HP franchise. That being said he’d better finish the 7th movie! Don’t go getting too big on us Rupert! lol

What is it about this guy? I don’t think i’ve ever found a “ginge” attractive before but this one is SO FREAKIN FINE. Very sexy boy.

30th!!!!!! WOW, Just goes to show you, what great make-up can do for a character. If you just saw ole Rupert like that, you would think, he was really hurt and cut up. He is so cute and boyish though. Sort of a John-boy Walton type. Never really ages, no matter how he wears his hair or clothes. I wish him luck on his movie.

He’s so hot. I absolutely adore him and I can’t wait for this film!!!!

Whoa I thought that was a scene from Harry Potter at first! Way to go Rupert.

ugly red head, over done acting, no really good for drama better in comedy - by the way his character will die in this movie.

Sorry,but Dan is better,he has done more roles,received more good reviews and he has acted in comedic roles too(Extras).Dan is the best of the trio.oh!!and he is more handsome.

I would still, totally make out with him <3

I think Rupert is a better actor (just my opinion, don’t take it personally) but in Harry Potter it doesn’t really seem like it because all the lines go to Dan and Emma and the character of Ron is really dumbed down. Driving Lessons was alright but I think Cherry Bomb is where we’re going to see him really shine b/c I have a feeling that Malachy will kick butt. It’s going to be the first role where I think he’ll look really cool and manly and all that shizz. But who knows. We’ll just have to see next year.

poor Rupert (L).

he looks hot even with a bloody face :)
go rup!!!!!!!!!!

Rupert is by far the best actor of the Trio (Rupert, Emma and Harry). Emma’s got considerable talent as well, and I just can see great future ahead for these two. As for Dan… He’s got a legion of fans, so he’ll be ok too, I guess.

Waiting forward to this movie. I rewatched Driving Lessons the other day and it’s so cool! Rupert is just brilliant there.

Rupert is too “unusual” looking to be a big star. He will always have “character” roles. Dan is better looking and perfect in every way except that he is too small. His smallness can be overcome in various ways, as T. Cruse’s has been, but being only 5′6″ or a bit more is not a big advantage for an actor. Dan by the way had his 19th birthday on the 23rd, and unlike last year when he held a big party in a bar and got tipsy and was photographed coming home with a burly helper to steady him. This year supposedly he and his parents simply went to lunch in an expensive London restaurant. If he got tipsy he did it at home where he would not be photographed.

I have so much love for Rupert.I cant wait to see Cherry Bomb.

GOD….he looks g8t…!!!!!!!!!
well a all new look for him…anyways…i love it..!!!!

the blood does not exactly look realistic. you can tell it’s not from cuts or anything. eh, oh well. even if the movie sucks i’m sure rupert will rock it!

i’m a 55 yr old mom who became a big fan of the harry potter series but since the ist movie it was rupert who gave me the heart.he is such a nice boy, very cute even up to now.his eyes show the good actor inside and a very dedicated one.this boy will go a long way and will become one of the hottest actor great britain has ever had.mark my word! good luck to you young man.my whole family will forever support your carreer.don’t ever change keep your feet on the ground always and be very generous to your family and friends.love your fans and alwats thank GOD for all your blessings.this is mom prescila from the philippines.

HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY FROM MOM PRESCILA AND FAMILY FROM THE PHILIPPINES

JJ is behind the ball re Daniel Radcliffe. Dannyboy has been in the Lake District on vacation and was seen, so it is reported, eating tapas at a bistro in Ambleside. He is also reported to be happily signing autographs for any of the bucolic locals who recognize him. Such a sweet kid. So nice. So everything. It must be a big shock to see him in Equus with his clothes off and his peen exposed. I mean, Dannyboy, whatever possessed you?

JJ is way behind the ball re Dan. A new interview has reveealed that he suffers from (mild) dyspraxia, meaning he has difficulty at times to tie his shoe laces or to write so one can read what he has written. The most obvious symptom is one that he has mentioned before: he suffered from low esteem when in school because he wasn’t good at anything. That is why his mother put him up for the role of David Copperfield. He got it, did brilliantly, and the rest is history. I would say his modesty in public is still evidence of his not letting his stardom go to his head. He’s a kid who has turned his weakness into 40 million dollars or more. And when you see him in interviews he isn’t shy or diffident anymore. His latest pictures are of him naked on horseback by Annie Liebowitz who is photographer to the elite (including Queen Elizabeth).

he is so god damn hot.
i would love to get a guy like that. why dont they grow like this in norway?
i might actually come to uk and steal him :)
