Since finishing filming Harry Potter, Rupert Grint has struggled to match the success of his former co-stars Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson in the acting world. The actor received mixed reviews for his recent turn on Broadway in It’s Only a Play, with the Washington Post claiming his performance exhausted ‘the comic possibilities’.
However, Mr S is happy to reveal that while his acting credentials may have taken a beating of late, financially the 26-year-old thespian is still sitting comfortably. According to annual reports posted on Companies House today for his company Clay 10 Limited, the actor has made a profit of just under £1.1 million for the year ending August 2014. The company is owned by Grint and has his father Nigel acting as director.
While this appears to be a decrease in profit compared to the £1.9 million listed in 2013 and the £8.6 million profit for 2012, he could have made an even larger sum in 2014 as these are only abbreviated accounts.
