Rupert Grint says he is 'heartbroken' over Harry Potter co-star Maggie Smith's death as he pays emotional tribute to screen legend
The 36-year-old actor, who played Ron Weasley in the franchise, posted a heartfelt tribute to Dame Maggie on his Instagram grid on Saturday, following her death at age 89 on Friday.
The actor shared a snap of their characters in Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire, where Professor McGonagall pulled Ron up for a dance during Yule Ball practice - one of the most memorable scenes in the franchise. Daniel first worked with Dame Maggie in 1999 when he was just nine-years-old on TV mini-series David Copperfield in which he starred alongside four more of his future Harry Potter co-stars, including Zoe Wanamaker, Imelda Staunton, Dawn French and Paul Whitehouse. His emotional message comes just after the other two members of the iconic trio, Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson, broke their silences on Maggie's death (pictured together in Harry Potter And The Philosopher's Stone)
