Rupert Grint Interview

We speak to Harry Potter star Rupert Grint about Wild Target...

Rupert Grint trades in his blockbuster fame from the Harry Potter series to team up with Bill Nighy, Emily Blunt, Rupert Everett and Martin Freeman in the comedy-caper Wild Target. In our exclusive interview, the Brit-star reveals what it was like working in the presence of such big film-stars, what he intends to do after Harry Potter and Hogwarts and the green-fingered personality who had him completely star-struck.

Based on 1993 French film Cible Emouvante, director Jonathan Lynn  invites audiences on a slapstick ride with Wild Target. Victor Maynard (Bill Nighy) is a middle-aged assassin, who lives to please his mother, despite his killer instinct. When he finds himself drawn to one of his intended victims (Emily Blunt), and a no-hoper (Rupert Grint) inadvertently saves their lives, Victor’s professional routine is thrown into disarray. With his two new companions in tow, Victor embarks on a new mission with fast-paced, comedic results.
