Rupert Grint is opening up about making"Harry Potter" and described the experience as"suffocating" at times because he was essentially doing the same thing over the course of 10 years.

Grint, who played Ron Weasley in the"Potter" franchise, appeared on Dax Shepard's"Armchair Expert" podcast to talk about working on the films from 2001 to 2011. "There was a time where it felt quite suffocating, because it was heavy going, because it was every day for 10 years in the end," Grint told Shepard.He continued:"Sometimes it definitely felt like, 'I want to do something else. See what else is out there,'" Grint said.

Had lots of leading man roles since have you?

🙄ummmm.....AND...the same checks?

It’s called a job

Well ... that is what many people do in their work.. but earn less money..🤡

Rupert was also reported saying he hasn’t watched majority of the Harry Potter movies 😳

A job. That's called a job.

Looks like it's 'well-off ginger lads moan' week :)

Boo hoo. Welcome to every normal persons existence and ultimately we are paid less for it.

Now that's what dark lord wanted! You are under his spell.

Literally everyone just read the title and is making a fool of themselves in the comments.

“I worked for 10 years straight and having all this money and never having to work again SUCKS!”

But then he became a millionaire.

Suffocating all the way to the bank $$$$

yeah, and im sure he cashed all those paychecks, and is still cashing those paychecks......boo F'ing hooo.

He still looks like Ron Weasley lol

Lots of people do the same thing for tears for a lot less money.

Monica_Wilcox Guy had to go to work. Guy made millions. Guy whines about it. I saw another film this guy did. Don't think we missed out on much not having him make more.

And my album sucked a D.

And being paid handsomely for it in salary and publicity. Wah.

Until he got the pay check.

Did he feel the same when he got the paycheck ..why humans are becoming more troubled and weaker

Really? You become a millionaire and now you complain. Donate the money to the poor. I'm tired of the elitist cry babies.

Terranceus interesting. I could believe it. Honestly these movies were made by very old ppl with super young cast. I know for darn sure the actors did NOT have a say in the way their characters looked in their 19 year jump. No one can convince me they liked it.

yet another dig

Wasn't he paid to do it?

Not to subtract from his experience, but shouldn't be thankful that he had an opportunity to be part of something important? Many others would kill to have been in his shoes. Work is not always fun and can be repetitive at times, but that's why it's work and not vacation.

I agree with him...all too soon for me too

Try factory work.

Doing the same thing over the course of 10 years? That’s called “work”

And he was being paid for it , get a real job Rupert , try that for ten years .

Most of us do the same thing for years and years but the difference is we can’t stop after 10 years and have wealth we could essentially pass on to our grandchildren by the end of it. Nobody feels sorry for a guy who got paid millions to play dress up

I bet it was tough getting Uber famous and financially set for the rest of your life. The struggle is real.

No one gives a shit, Rupert.

TOO BAD..... and way too bad they didn't select another kid actor to begin with...... maybe one of color BUT of course it's Britain..

Rich boy crying

Shut up Rupert. 😈

If someone told me you have to work your ass off from 11 to 25 years old (and travel the world), but you’ll be financially set the rest of your life, I would say yes every time.

Like most people do at their. Cry me a river. entitled

He got paid to this right? And he could have passed on the part? Stop complaining

I really should just keep moving but I'm in a mood this morning. All together now, Poor baby!

Can't feel sorry for someone who cashed in 50,000 000 for being bored.

You mean like having a job doing the same thing over & over?

Oh good Lord. Is he oppressed too? Poor little feller. All them millions for playing one character and reciting all them lines. So suffocating. Useless, privileged mf'r.

Read the article. He said he enjoyed the production. 'But it was great. I loved it.' 'Grint did add that even though he worked with the same people for a decade, making the hit movies was 'a great experience,' because the cast and crew became like family to him.'

I’m sure the money made it worth the “suffering” of doing the same boring job! Booohooo🥲

I bet able to do a lot of different things with the money he has is not so suffocating. 🤣🤣🤣

That headline describes most jobs...

I feel really sorry for him. All those millions for mincing about.

Nice checks though.

We still love you Won-Won. 🥰

I think that’s called a career. If he hadn’t done Potter would we even know his name? Cry me a river.

Tipo qualquer trabalho.

Yeh getting handsomely paid for it
