Ed Sheeran Is Everyone and Everywhere for a Stalker Fan (Rupert Grint!) in ‘A Little More' Video
In the original video, Rupert Grint (yes, Ron Weasley from Harry Potter) played a Sheeran superfan with a serious, unhealthy obsession — sneaking onstage during a show, hopping into Sheeran's tour bus, and even chewing his gum.

But in 'A Little More,' the Emil Nava-directed video picks up with Grint's character returning to his childhood home after serving time behind bars for stalking, only to find his room still plastered with Sheeran posters and merch. From there, Grint goes to 'Stalkers Anonymous' meetings, watches old Sheeran interviews, and tries to ease back into a normal life.
Eventually, he spots Sheeran training at a nearby gym, but before he can spiral again, he meets a girl, falls in love, proposes, and moves in with her, slowly starting to let go of his obsession. Still, he seems to see Sheeran everywhere, even in the faces of the people at his support group.
'Cause I used to love you / Now every day I hate you just a little more,' sings Sheeran during it all. 'Life got better when I lost you / But every day I hate you just a little more and more and more.'
In the final scenes, Grint's character walks down the aisle with his beautiful partner, though he hilariously keeps seeing Sheeran's face on everyone in the church, even her, when he uncovers her veil. The video wraps with a ridiculous post-credits scene from the wedding reception, featuring Sheeran in a full wedding dress, totally committed to the waltz choreography. (And Sheeran teases a new track from his upcoming album.)
'A Little More' is the follow-up single to 'Sapphire,' which features him singing with Arijit Singh in Hindi and Punjabi, and 'Azizam.' Sheeran even updated his Spotify page to a photo of Rupert Grint to continue the stalker fantasy. 'A Little More' precedes his album Play, which drops Sept. 12. (It's his first LP without the math symbols.)
