Harry Potter famed Rupert Grint has returned to spotlight with Johnny Depp’s Ebenezer after keeping a low profile for some years.
But the actor chose to return to big screen with Ti West’s fantasy adventure movie.
Rupert is currently busy with the promotional spree of the film along with co-star Johnny. In one of the interviews, he explained what drew him to sign Ebenezer after staying away from spotlight.
In conversation with Entertainment Weekly, the 38-year-old English actor confessed that the plot and star cast was appealing for him.
“Yeah, I mean, this was so appealing to me because just the opportunity to work with some great actors like yourself and Johnny, who I’ve kind of watched kind of growing up.”
Grint continued, “And yeah, it was obviously Ty’s vision on this and a story that I’ve always loved. To see his take on it was just too irresistible, I think. And yeah, it was just so much fun. It was such a fun place to play.”
He further added that he has always loved the era in which the film is set and then obviously Depp was also a major reason he didn’t want to say no to this film.
Ebenezer is a fun film based on Charles Dickins’ book titled A Christmas Carol starring the Pirates of the Caribbean star as Mr Scrooge.
