Rupert Grint found it “weird” kissing an Emma Watson stand-in.
The ‘Harry Potter’ star had to lock lips with a masked girl when his stunning co-star was unable to film scenes on the forthcoming wizard movie Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
He said: “There have been a couple of scenes where Emma has missed filming. But when you have to kiss a girl in a mask, it’s totally weird.”
In the hit movie franchise, the pair play Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, long-time school friends who become romantically involved.
Rupert and Emma dreaded having to shoot the kissing scenes.
The 19-year-old beauty recently admitted she “pounced” on Rupert, 21, when they needed to get up close and personal and was terrified of laughing during the intimate scenes.
She explained: “I pounced on him, I was so desperate to get it over with.
“We were both really nervous about laughing and not being able to take it seriously.
"It was awkward for both of us because we are like siblings - imagine growing up with someone since you were nine.”
