Rupert Grint (aka Ron Weasley) from the Harry Potter movies is in New York this weekend to attend a showing of his movie
Driving Lessons at this year's Tribeca Film Festival.
Last night Rupert attended an event at the festival, also in attendance was actress Laura Linney who portrays his mother in his new film. You can see some photos from the event here courtesy of Wire Image.
Rupert will attend the 8:30 pm showing tonight of his movie and tickets may be available at the door (no promise of availability). If you attend please let us know by sending some photos our way.
Thanks Page.
UPDATE: Thanks to Mark for sending over a video (in Quicktime, he apologizes for the quality of the sound) of Rupert's appearance this morning on Fox's Fox & Friends. You can also view the same video on RupertGrint.net in Windows Media.

He has the same look in all those pictures its kind of funny. And I wonder what he was drinking in his glass *winks* Just Kidding, he looks like he's having fun and getting his name out there. It's nice to see them doing other things besides the Harry Potter. Oh and I love Laura Linney I think she is just fabulous.

I think he looks better with shorter hair. I hope he keeps it like that for Order of the Phoenix. They all look better (guys) with shorter hair! And I think he will have done a good job.

Aw, he's so lovely. I hope that he had fun at the festival, and that the film itself was well met. I'd really like to see a snippet of it, just to see if he distinguishes between Ron and this new character.
