The Tribune is reporting that Rupert Grint, Ron Weasley in the Harry Potter movies, has been confimed to play Olympic ski-jumper Eddie the Eagle Edwards in a biopic, due to start filming after the Harry Potter series has ended.
Grint, who plays cheeky Ron Weasley in the Potter films, will take on the role of Edwards in the story of the Eagle's disastrous Olympic adventure, in which he came last in both the 70m and 90m ski-jump categories.
"The film is really about triumph over adversity. Every single obstacle was put in this guy's way and yet he still managed to make it to the Winter Olympics," said Wexford-born Lowney.
