Julie Walters is such a good actress. She acts really good in this movie. There wasn't hardly any speaking part for Rupert in this clip, but the movie looks cute.

At least it's not Thunderpants! It would be interesting to see Rupert act seriously outside of the HP universe. I have a feeling that if and when it hits the states, it'll be such a small blip on the screen that it might pass me by.

Shame that Julie Walters is not in Goblet, she's a great actress and plays Molly perfectly.

Rupert did not remind of Ron at all in that clip! He looks so different there, none of the classic Ron faces, he looks so... un-wizardlike.. if that's even a word :p like everyday people, riding a bus and all that ^_^ I want to see it now!

Go Rupert! I hope he is enjoying making movies besides the HP movies. And he is teamed up with Julie Walters... although to me she will always be considered his mom

This is a really great clip, I already watched in another site, a rupert grint site. Rupert doesnt really say mcuh but he still looks sooo hott. I haven't figured out if I'm still going to think of him as ron when I watch driving lessons or not, i hope not.

I think it will be a pretty cool movie, and it's also great to see the HP actors in other roles. I wish Emma would make another movie, after the HP...

It'll be good to see them together outside the Potter universe. If the movie is anywhere near as good as that ballet one Julie Walters was in (go figure I forget the name of it...something to do with a boy named Billy...I think) it'll be worth a watch.

Also, this will be a sort of test for young Rupert Grint. I know he was in another movie, Thunderpants (never watched it though, fart jokes just don't do it for me), this is more adult (or so I'd imagin) so the the audience will be a little wider.

Good luck him!

That little bit of a clip was great! I still see Rupert Grint as Ron Weasley, but Julie Walters has indeed created a very different character than Molly Weasley for this film. The little bit of dialogue I saw (and all of it was of Julie Walters speaking; Rupert Grint just has to look sullen) was terrific and spicy. I'm so looking forward to seeing this film. I'm hopeful it will play in the U.S.

That's nice that they get to work together again. It sounds like an interesting movie. I probably won't get a chance to see it in theaters, but I'll definitely rent it.
