‘Harry Potter’ Star Set To Appear in Ed Sheeran’s Latest Music Video originally appeared on Parade.

Ed Sheeran announced some exciting news for fans on Monday morning.

The English pop singer took to Instagram to share that his upcoming single “A Little More” will drop this Thursday, and the video will star Rupert Grint, the beloved actor known for his role as Ron Weasley in J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series. The duo first teased that something was in the works last Thursday on Instagram, sending fans into a frenzy.

Sheeran and Grint have long been linked in pop culture thanks to their striking resemblance and similar ginger hair — a running joke among fans. Back in 2011, the 36-year-old actor famously appeared in Sheeran’s “Lego House” music video, which quickly became a fan favorite.

“14 years later me and @rupertgrint are reunited. I had this wild idea after writing the song, and thankfully rupert was up for it,” the 34-year-old singer wrote. “It’s an utterly bonkers video for a very upbeat, fun, but angry song. Think this one is gonna be a lot of people’s fav song from Play. Out Thursday, watch out for more stuff coming x.”

Not only is Sheeran gearing up to release his eighth studio album Play, on Sept. 12, but the “Photograph” singer has also been on his +−=÷× Tour since 2022, returning to Europe for another leg this summer. Over the past three months, he has also dropped multiple singles ahead of the album, including “Azizam,” “Old Phone” and two versions of “Sapphire,” one featuring Indian composer Arijit Singh.

Fans can watch the “A Little More” music video, starring Grint, when it premieres this Thursday.
