That's kinda strange for Rupert to do something else other than HP. To me he'll always be Ron Weasley. But good luck to him in that anyway.

I think its great for Rupert to get a leading role. I think he's a really good actor whos going to go far beond HP, but I really want him to see out HP to the 7th movie. It would be the same without him.

Emma's true fan and lover says:
cool, Rupert's landed himself in a non-HP movie. If this movie goes well, he'll be certainly considered for more movies and we'll get to see a lot more of Ron. Hope it doesn't interrupt his HP shooting though, that'l be really bad, if he's working for some other movie and doesn't have time for HP. Well, good luck Rupert.

I think its good that he's starring in another film before the HP films are over, because then they're getting out of being typecast already.

Cool. I like to see the actors branch out, it adds to their experience and skill as developing actors. I do hope that he doesn't get overwhelmed and still has time for HP.

This is really good. but many people are used to him as a Potter character. It's good because people will start to see him as a normal actor and it wont be long until he is in blockbuster films! He's a great actor!

...Rupert...not as Ron.
Hmm...it's going to be a bit odd to watch.
But I'm still excited and happy for him.
I'd watch the movie.
