Just the other day Harry Potter actor Rupert Grintopens in new window appeared on the BBC show A Question of Sportopens in new window. Rupert, who was the mystery guest on the show, re-enacted a scene from the movie Color of Money and demonstrated that he is actually a pretty good pool (snooker) player.

You can view the video hereopens in new window courtesy of RG.netopens in new window (remember to right click and save file as...). You can also go directly to RG.net to view some screencaps of the video.

Thanks to AJ for the tip.

Ahh it's not working. Oh, I've never heard of that film - "Color of Money." heck, the makers can't spell. Stupid American spelling rules. Pool, snooker - I call it pool, or billiards.

Uh, yeah, I think the "Weasel" bit was a put-on too, actually. Cool seeing Rupert out and about! Looking forward to seeing "Driving Lessons" too!

Well its good to see that Rupert is having a great time outside of Harry Potter. Hes becoming a really distinguished celebrity here in Britain now and all over the world. So glad I have BBC over here so I get to see all of his appearances and Rupert rocked 'A Question Of Sport' everywhere but what was with that blonde, 'It's Ron Weasel' =S Go Steven Fry! Cal

Well, that was quite interesting. I was surprised that the players in the game didn't know who Rupert was :( That's sad...but I'm pretty much sure that most of HP fans and fans of Rupert would notice that it's him ;)

I saw that on the night but wasn't really paying attention until they were asked to guess who he was and i heard 'Ron Weasley' Then I watched as he potted a ball into the corner pocket without even looking. He's an amazing snooker player and I wouldn't want to play against him!
