Harry Potter Star Rupert Grint, Ed Sheeran Rekindle Their Chemistry After 14 Years
The music video picks up after Rupert Grint's character gets out of prison for sneaking into Ed Sheeran's concert and impersonating him on stage.
On Thursday, August 7, Ed Sheeran dropped the much-awaited music video for his latest single, A Little More, featuring none other than Harry Potter star Rupert Grint. The music video marks the reunion of Ed Sheeran and Rupert Grint, as the Harry Potter star reprised his role as Sheeran's stalker from 2011's Lego House.
Known for playing Harry's best friend, Ron Weasley, in the popular fantasy franchise, Grint reunites with Ed for the much-awaited music video, heightening the excitement among the fans.
A Little More marks the collaboration between the two stars after 14 years since the release of Lego House. The music video picks up after the actor's character gets out of prison for sneaking into Sheeran's concert and impersonating him on stage. The video then goes on to show Grint's character starting afresh but getting haunted by his past, as he cannot get the singer's memories out of his mind and keeps getting bothered by them wherever he goes.
'I used to love you/ Now every day I hate you just a little more," Sheeran sings, explaining Grint's insufferable condition, where he sees the singer everywhere – be it on the streets, on television, or billboards. Things take a turn for the better when Grint meets a woman (played by Natalie Emmanuel) and decides to get married. But his guilt has not yet gone, as he keeps seeing all the wedding guests turn into Sheeran, leading him to frown.
Grint ultimately turns a blind eye to the unbelievable turn of events and chooses to take off the bride's veil, only to discover that she has morphed into Sheeran wearing a wedding gown. The playful music video refreshes the duo's bond, making fans excited and nostalgic at the same time.
Ed Sheeran's Note For Rupert Grint
Sharing a clip from the music video, Ed Sheeran penned a heartfelt note, talking about his experience of working with Rupert Grint after 14 years. 'I hadn't worked with @rupertgrint in 14 years since Lego House, so I didn't know if he'd say yes to this idea. But I'm so glad he did. It's such a fun, bonkers video. It was the longest video shoot I had ever done at that time, and the most costume changes. Shout out to @emilnava for always bringing my mad ideas to life. And @nathalieemmanuel too for being amazing. Rupert, my brother from another mother, thank you for throwing yourself into this; it wouldn't exist had you said no," Sheeran wrote.

‘Bhaukaal Se Pehle…': Did Divyenndu Hint At An Update On Mirzapur: The Film? Check It Out
Divyenndu hints at exciting news about Mirzapur: The Film, sparking buzz among fans eager for updates on the next big chapter of the hit series. Prime Video's flagship show, Mirzapur, became one of the groundbreaking series in India, and the love for the franchise grew so much that the makers confirmed a standalone film. After three blockbuster seasons, the makers announced Mirzapur: The Film is officially in the works. While it's been a while since there has been any update about the movie, it looks like Divyenndu, aka Munna Bhaiya, has given an update. Starring Pankaj Tripathi, Ali Fazal, and Divyenndu in their now-iconic roles of Kaleen Bhaiya, Guddu, and Munna, the show becomes the first-ever Indian OTT show to get a film adaptation. As fans waited with bated breath to watch the gripping drama, Divyenndu took to his Instagram and shared a series of pictures sitting in front of a beautiful hut and in the midst of a calming surrounding, but it's the caption that hinted at something big. Divyenndu's Instagram Post While sharing the pictures, Divyenndu wrote, 'BHAUKAAL se pehle ki SHANTI." For those who are unaware, Divyenndu's character of Munna Bhaiya in Mirzapur often used the word 'Bhaukaal" while speaking, which means this could be a hint that the actor is starting the shoot of the film soon. This caption didn't go unnoticed by eagle-eyed netizens who started speculating. One wrote, 'Bhaukaal hone wala hai 💀." 'Munna Bhaiya is back," another one wrote. A third fan shared, 'Jalwa h apka🔥." About Mirzapur: The Film The news of Mirzapur: The Film has come after the show completed three seasons. The Amazon Prime Video series streamed its first season in 2018 and became a rage instantly. The series returned for the second season during the pandemic. The third season was released with much fanfare earlier this year. Speaking about taking the series to the big screen, producers Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar of Excel Entertainment said, 'It is a landmark milestone for us to bring the quintessential Mirzapur experience to our audiences, yet again, but this time on the big screen. Throughout three successful seasons, this acclaimed franchise has struck all the right chords with fans through its powerful storytelling and memorable characters, from the likes of Kaleen Bhaiya, Guddu Bhaiya, and Munna Bhaiya, to name a few. We believe that adapting such a treasured series into a film will undoubtedly make for an even more engrossing watch, allowing audiences to immerse themselves in the world of Mirzapur like never before. We are stoked to collaborate with Prime Video, once again, and look forward to delivering a grand cinematic experience, which will truly live up to the expectations of our dedicated fanbase."

Gadar 2 Director Reveals Most Challenging Part Of Sunny Deol Starrer: ‘Spent Lot Of Time…'
Last Updated: As Gadar 2 starring Sunny Deol and Ameesha Patel completed 2 years, filmmaker Anil Sharma revealed what was the best and the most challenging part of making the film. Filmmaker Anil Sharma's period action drama, 'Gadar 2" starring Sunny Deol and Ameesha Patel, completed two years of release on Monday. During an exclusive conversation with IANS, the director shared the best part of the sequel, according to him. Speaking to IANS, Anil said: 'One of the best parts was seeing Utkarsh (Sharma), who played the child in Gadar 1, return as an adult in Gadar 2. I think this might be the first time in the world where the child actor grew up and reprised the same role." Revealing the most challenging part of making the film, he added: 'For me, the challenge was to find a way to move the story forward from Gadar 1. We spent a lot of time thinking about it. But when the story finally came together, it was worth the wait." The filmmaker was asked if the success of Gadar raised his expectations for the sequel. To this, Anil reacted by saying that 'Gadar" became a part of the audience's heart, and for the last two decades, everyone kept asking him why he hadn't made 'Gadar 2". 'I knew the love for the characters was immense. So, I had full faith in the film's success. In fact, I had already predicted it—sending an email to Zee even before the release that it would make 500 crores. And thankfully, God listened," he added. Reflecting on the massive success of 'Gadar 2", Anil shared that the connection between Tara, Jeeta, and Sakina remains etched in people's hearts, which is why the film continues to be memorable. 'The love people have for these characters makes it a legacy in itself", the director added. Spilling his plans for Gadar 3, Anil revealed that they are definitely working on it. 'The story will continue. The success of both Gadar 1 and Gadar 2 shows that the story and characters have a special place in people's hearts, and this will carry on in part three," he concluded.
