His publicist said today: “It has just been confirmed that Rupert Grint has taken a few days out of filming due to a mild bout of swine flu.”
“He has now recovered and is looking forward to joining his fellow cast members at the junket and premieres this week and will then return to filming directly afterwards.”
She said Grint’s doctor had confirmed that Rupert had recovered and was no longer contagious or at risk of infecting others.
“Other scenes were shot in his absence which did not require his involvement and thus filming was not disrupted,” she added.
