Harry Potter Star Rupert Grint Caught in Tax Dispute Drama

Rupert Grint a famous face of playing Ron Weasley in the “Harry Potter” movies is seeking headlines, but this time not for any movies or upcoming shows, the star is facing taxation charges! According to the sources, Rupert has been told to pay £1.8 million ($2.3 million) after losing a tax case in the U.K.

The problem started when the tax agency, H.M. Revenue and Customs and said Grint wrongly classified £4.5 million from movie earnings—like DVD sales, TV deals, and streaming rights—as a capital asset instead of income, which is taxed at a higher rate.

Lawyers of Grint challenged these claims but judge ruled against him. The judge said the money came directly from his work and should be taxed as income.

Now 36 years old, Rupert Grint appeared in all eight “Harry Potter” films from 2001 to 2011, earning an estimated £24 million during his time in the franchise. In 2019, he faced another tax dispute and lost a case over a £1 million refund.
