## Rupert Grint Returns to Broadway

Rupert Grint, known for his role as Ron Weasley in the "Harry Potter" film series, is set to return to the character on Broadway. Grint will join the cast of "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" at the Lyric Theatre in New York from February 2 to May 30, 2027.

## A Familiar Role with New Dimensions

Grint expressed excitement about revisiting the character, noting the unique experience of playing Ron as both he and the character are now fathers. This marks the second time a film cast member has joined the stage production, following Tom Felton's recent portrayal of Draco Malfoy.

## The Story Continues

"Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" takes place 19 years after the events of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows." The play explores the lives of an adult Harry Potter, married to Ginny Weasley, and Ron, who is married to Hermione. The characters face new challenges as they navigate family life and legacy.

## Grint's Stage Experience

This isn't Grint's first time on Broadway; he previously appeared in "It’s Only a Play." He also made his West End debut in "Mojo." Producers of "The Cursed Child" believe Grint's return will strengthen the connection between the beloved film series and the ongoing stage story.
