And we thought the whole Swine Flu craziness had fallen by the wayside...

 

Harry Potter star Rupert Grint had been sidelined by the virus but, the magical wizardry has kicked in, and he's almost good as new.

"It has just been confirmed that Rupert Grint has taken a few days out of filming due to a mild bout of swine flu," his rep says in a statement. "He has now recovered and is looking forward to joining his fellow cast members at the junket and premieres this week and will then return to filming directly afterwards."

I'm sure his costars are just thrilled that he's going to be sitting shoulder-to-shoulder with them for 14 hours a day. I, maybe, would give it a little more time....
