Harry Potter: Ron’s hairstyle is one of Rupert Grint’s “biggest regrets”
By Ariba Bhuvad
Rupert Grint has moved on from his days as the goofy Ron Weasley in the Harry Potter films, but he’ll always have the memories, as will we. And while most of those memories are good, there are a few things he’d like to forget, like his hairstyles.
While on the podcast Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard, Grint revealed that one his “biggest regrets” was the awkward hairstyle he sported in the fourth movie, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
It wasn’t exactly the most flattering look. “There were some awkward stages for sure,” Grint said. “My hair in film four is one of my biggest regrets. Shoulder length, I had my hair down here, I don’t know. I think everyone had a phase of having this really long hair. They liked that it was kind of wizardy. We went through our of kind of puberty on camera… It was very cringy.”
Rupert Grint will always be Ron Weasley to us
When you grow up as part of a franchise as iconic as Harry Potter, it’s difficult to shake off, whatever roles you get afterward. That said, Grint’s performance in Servant on Apple TV+ is one to write home about. Watching him curse and get drunk and high is a quick way to remind yourself that he is no longer Ron Weasley.
He’s still hilarious, though, just in a much dryer way than he was in Harry Potter. Still, Grint has more than proven himself capable of playing a multitude of roles, which is no easy feat when basically your entire childhood and adolescence is preserved on film. Can you imagine if our home videos and yearbooks were on public display like that? Yikes.
We appreciate Grint along with the rest of the Harry Potter cast for doing what so many of us couldn’t imagine doing, and living their entire childhood in front of a camera just so we could see this fantastical world come to life.
