Q: Driving Lessons is your first big gig since starring in the Harry Potter flicks. How does it feel?
Rupert Grint: It's a bit nerve-wracking because it's [totally] different than anything I've ever done before.
Q: Was it weird to film without Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson?
RG: It was quite weird because on Harry Potter, the main bit of the cast is all kids. There weren't many kids on this one.
Q: Why did you decide to do a different type of movie now?
Q: Do you have your driver's license?
RG: I'm learning. I'm not bad. I've been learning for a long time, but I'm getting there.
Q: You had your first onscreen kiss in this flick. How was it?
RG: That was a bit different. It wasn't as bad as I thought.
Q: In the Harry Potter movies, you did a lot of acting with a blue screen, where special effects were added in later. How did it feel to just do straight acting in a natural setting?
RG: It was different. [With] every Harry Potter, [there's] been blue screens -- we've had to act with nothing. It was much easier not having to do that this time. There are no special effects with this one; it's more straightforward, which made it more appealing to do because of the contrast.
Q: Who do you relate to more -- Ron Weasley or Ben?
RG: Ron. Ben's sort of shy and really sort of quiet and a bit complicated. I think I'm more laid back.
Q: How does it feel to have girls fawn over you now?
RG: It was really hard to get used to -- it was a bit weird at first. Now, I think I'm all right with it.
Q: Would you ever date a fan?
RG: Yeah, I think so, if they were nice enough.
Q: Would you ever date a co-star?
RG: It would be a bit weird -- seeing them everyday. I don't know if it would work.
Q: What do you look for in a girl?
RG: A good sense of humor.
