I must see that. Rupert has become pretty gorgeous all of a sudden, I mean he wasn't that much to look at in the 1st 2 films but now he is (cue neddy accent) stunnin'.
He seems to be the one out of the trio with all the job offers. Well good for him. I am happy

I am glad to hear that Rupert is branching out. Let’s just hope they don’t make him look like an idiot. I mean really, Rupert does a nice job as Ron, but the movies make Ron to be a little…ridiculous. Does anyone agree?

Wow Rupert! He's got a really busy schedule. They just finished filming GOF and he's doing another movie, and after that, it will probably be time to start work on OoTP!

When I first saw the title of this topic, I though ti said Rupert was about to start taking Driving Lessons.
I doubt they would have chosen him if he hadn't starred in HP and nobody knew him.
Is Julie Walters going to be his mum again?

Gee i hope that doesn't mean that he isn't going to be in the next few harry potter movies. Daniel has already said that he will be staying on for the fifth one.

This is such an amazing step forwards in his career!!! I wish him the best of luck and I am hoping and praying that he will be back for the next HP film. I am for sure going to see the movie the day it comes out!!!

Best of luck to him about it. I've gotta admit it doesn't really sound like something I'd go to see normally, but hey, I just might!

Great for him, perhaps he'll be able to shake off the Ron Weasley-ness...although shy vicar's son doesn't sound promising :P

Ooookay. Cool that Rupert's gonna be in another non-HP movie, but I'm having a hard time picturing him and Laura Linney. It sounds interesting, at any rate!

Sounds interesting. I think it's good for Rupert to branch out from Harry Potter like this. I hope that Daniel gets a chance to do so as well, although that seems highly unlikely.
