He may have played Ron Weasly in all eight Harry Potter films, but Rupert Grint says he has actually only watched three of them. 

Grint starred alongside Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Tom Felton in the hugely popular wizardly franchise that has made over €6.9 billion at the box-office. It has also conjured up three prequel movies, a stage show and a theme park. 

However, speaking to Variety, the 32-year-old actor revealed that he hasn't seen all of the movies that have made him an international star. He said: "I've probably seen the first three at the premieres, but after that, I stopped watching them."

Now that Grint is a dad - he welcomed his daughter Wednesday with wife Georgina Groom last year - he may get round to viewing his own work. "Now that I have a daughter, I will probably have to watch them with her."

Grint also spoke about the Harry Potter TV series, which is being developed by HBO Max. He said: "It'll be weird if it was a continuation kind of thing.

"I weirdly feel quite protective of that character. Even when I saw the stage shows, it was a very strange experience. … If it’s like a different group of friends, I guess it would be interesting."
