'We merged into one. By the end of it, I was playing myself.'
The actor spent his formative years playing Ron Weasley in all seven films in the wizarding franchise, after he was cast at the age of 11., Rupert admitted his and Ron’s identities became synonymous with one other over the years, which became an “out-of-body experience”.
He also said he was pleased the films wrapped up when they did with Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows Part II in 2011, otherwise things “could have gone downhill”. “In the movies, we merged into one. By the end of it, I was playing myself. The lines were blurred,” he said.Rupert Grint pictured earlier this monthRupert continued: “Potter was so full on — [filming] all year, then we’d promote the rest of the time.
“It was quite suffocating. I wanted a break, to reflect on everything... It was an out-of-body experience for a while, but I think we finished at the right time. If we continued, it could’ve gone downhill.”
