Last month we mentioned Rupert Grint's visit to the U.S. to premiere his newest movie Driving Lessons, at the Tribeca Film Festival.
Now Sony Pictures Classics has picked up
the North American rights to the movie, but no release date has been announced as of yet.

WOOHOOO!
That is great! It means if nothing else we will be able to get the DVD which I am thrilled about.
Rupert and Julie are PHENOM and I am pumped to watch this film. Say word.

I know I'll be looking for it -- it'll be nice to see Rupert Grint in another role. Of the three main HP actors, I think he might be the most talented.

I am just so excited to see this! It just looks so cute and funny. And I love that Rupert and julia get to be in this together. I think they have a great dynamic, and it's awesome if the movie builds on it.

Good to hear that a major studio picked up the film! This means it'll be easier for some of his international fans to be able to see him. I'm curious to see him in another role besides Ron.

That is awesome news!! I Would like to see Rupert in a non potter movie. That would be funny if the movie cames out the same time as Order of the Phoenix movie.

Brilliant, Rupert was Brilliant, it was as if he was at the U.S. HP Premiere again, except he was on his own to sign autographs for those HP Fans as well.

I am fearful for the cross-over movies that Rupert, Emma, and Dan will definitely be making. I doubt that they will have the same success in America that they do in England.

I am curious about how the "Harry Potter" actors will do in other movies. And now with "Driving Lessons" being available in US, I can see and make comparisons(By the way, when will it be available in other countries? Worldwide even?)
