Rupert Grint

What I admire about Rupert Grint is the quiet discipline of his career. Being cast as Ron Weasley at eleven could have defined and then destroyed him, as child stardom so often does. Instead, he played the loyal, comic, unglamorous third of that trio for a decade — arguably the hardest job in the ensemble — and emerged with his craft intact. His later choices in voice work and stage acting suggest an actor more interested in texture than spotlight. That is rare among franchise alumni. Grint strikes me as proof that the supporting player, done honestly, can outlast the hero.
