Harry Potter Star Hijacks Ed Sheeran’s Spotify Amid Music Video Release

Harry Potter star Rupert Grint and Ed Sheeran have been uniquely promoting their latest collaboration song, “A Little More.” The new music video is a follow-up to their 2014 music video “Lego House,” where Grint portrayed the singer’s stalker. As the duo continues to market their latest project, Sheeran’s Spotify profile picture has been updated to feature his doppelganger, who is none other than Grint himself.

Ed Sheeran recently updated his Spotify display picture, changing it to Grint’s picture, whose appearance resembles that of the singer. In the picture, Grint appears to be wearing an orange Ralph Lauren hoodie, with his hands in the pockets. His face towards the camera appears to give a confused look.

This is not the first time Grint has taken over Sheeran’s identity to promote their new endeavor. Last week, the “Perfect” singer shared footage in which he and Grint could be seen wearing floral outfits and lip-syncing an unreleased song

Sheeran’s team also shared an official message addressing the clip on Instagram, noting that his profile has been breached and they’re working to restore the account. “We’ve been made aware that Ed’s social media accounts have been accessed by an unknown party. Unreleased music has been posted on his profiles. We have been working hard on securing the accounts, and from looking into this further, we have managed to obtain a distorted picture of the person of interest, who appears to be wearing an orange hoodie.”

The message was followed by a note, which asked viewers to slide the post for context. In the slide, Grint reappeared, further revealing that everyone is now aware of the breach and findings. But he mentioned that they aren’t taking down the clip, as their song is ” a total banger.”

A Little More was released on August 7, 2025. It’s a song in which Grint reprises his role as Sheeran’s stalker, who, after his prison tenure, starts a fresh chapter. He meets a new woman and asks for her hand in marriage. On their wedding day, his obsession with Sheeran resurfaces when he sees his guests and bride transformed into the singer.
