While appearing on the Late, Late, Show earlier this week, Harry Potter‘s Rupert Grint said he still gets mistaken for Ed Sheeran. “It’s kind of 50/50 now,” he told host James Corden. “It’s like [when] someone stops me, it could go either way. I could be Ed or I could be me.” Even other celebrities get the pair confused. “Leo Sayer [the singer], he came up to me and said he loved my music, of course thinking I was Ed,” Rupert recalled. “And I play along.”
