'Harry Potter' Star Rupert Grint Stricken With Swine Flu

Harry Potter star Rupert Grint is recovering from swine flu, which he contracted while filming the latest installment in the hit film franchise.

Grint, 20, plays the boy wizard's best friend Ron Weasley in the films.

Christian Hodell of Hamilton Hodell management said that Grint took a few days away from the set, but has now been able to return to work.

He is expected to be well enough to attend the world premiere of Harry Potter and Half Blood Prince in London this week.
