Magic can't save 'Harry Potter' star Rupert Grint from a $2.3 million tax bill

LONDON — Former 'Harry Potter' film actor Rupert Grint faces a 1.8 million-pound ($2.3 million) bill after he lost a legal battle with the tax authorities.

Grint, who played Ron Weasley in the magical film franchise, was ordered to pay the money in 2019 after H.M. Revenue and Customs, the UK tax agency, investigated his tax return from seven years earlier.
