The characters in the book grow up with us. My voice has broken as well.
People recognize me, call me Ron, and ask me questions. It's really cool and weird as well.
Getting recognized is sort of weird anyway. I'm 17 now. You get the odd person sort of shouting out "Ron!" or something. And my hair at the moment sort of stands out a bit, can't really avoid it.
The truth is that Ron is my hero. He's always there for his friends - sometimes belligerently, but there nevertheless. He's also the comic relief in stressful situations; the funny guy with a great one-liner. And no matter how scared he may be, he will put aside his fears to support and protect the people he loves. To me, that represents true courage.
I like all Jim Carrey films. They're really funny.
It's always at the back of my mind that acting might come to an end for me when Harry Potter finishes. I don't know if I'm good enough to have a long career. I've got a bit of an inferiority complex about my acting. My self-esteem is quite low in that sense.
I've always been quite a proud ginger so I couldn't dye it and betray the other gingers.
Every time I come off-set, I am just like a normal kid again.
I've never been seriously involved with anyone. I've certainly never been in love. I've always preferred to keep things casual.
I would date a fan, I dont have a problem with that. I look for a good sense of humour in a girlfriend.
I want Ron to stand up to Malfoy and punish him.
I'll always be the ginger one from Harry Potter.
I always wanted to go into acting.
For me the stunts are so cool, they're one of my favourite things when we're doing the film.
