Actor Rupert Grint, famed for his role as Ron Weasley in the Harry Potter films, has lost a significant tax dispute with the UK’s HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC), resulting in a £1.8 million tax bill. The case highlights the complexities of tax law concerning high-value payments received by celebrities.
Harry Potter star Rupert Grint is the frontrunner to take over on Death in Paradise, according to bookmakers. Grint, 35, played Ron Weasley in eight Harry Potter films between 2001 and 2011. He has since starred in several TV series, including Sky’s Sick Note and the BBC’s The ABC Murders. Other actors in the running to replace Ralf Little include Simon Bird (The Inbetweeners), Mathew Horne (Gavin and Stacey), and Diane Morgan (Cunk on Britain).
