- Rupert Grint and TV
Rupert Grint will be starring in Snatch, a drama series based on the film by Guy Richie. Honestly not too sure what it's about other than it being inspired by a real-life London heist. There are a few articles around about it but I found my info on USA Today's website.

I read Anne of Green Gables when I was younger and I remember liking it. Apparently, a TV adaptation will be produced by CBC and you'll be able to see it on Netflix sometime in 2017. The eight-episode drama will be called Anne.
